If an unacceptable pressure gradient is detected, the system will switch, as it is designed to do, into the hydraulic function mode.  DaimlerChrysler AG has determined that in certain instances, if vehicles are not routinely serviced and have extremely high mileage combined with a high number of brake actuations or a high brake actuation frequency, the pump motor of the SBC may run out of permissible tolerances, thereby triggering the hydraulic function mode.  Correction:  Dealers will re-program the SBC hydraulic unit.  A software update will provide a clear maintenance notice on the vehicle display and assure continuous pump speed operation within tolerances.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"04-0514","part_number":null,"units":6579,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Freins","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Le système de surveillance électronique du Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) est conçu pour surveiller le gradient de pression à l'intérieur du tuyau haute pression du système de freinage. Si un gradient de pression inacceptable est détecté, le système passera en mode hydraulique. DaimlerChrysler AG a déterminé que, dans certaines circonstances, si les véhicules ne sont pas entretenus régulièrement, qu'ils ont un kilométrage très élevé et que les freins sont appliqués souvent ou qu'ils sont appliqués à plusieurs reprises dans un laps de temps court, le moteur de la pompe du SBC pourrait dépasser les tolérances admissibles, ce qui déclencherait le mode hydraulique. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer l'unité hydraulique du SBC. Une mise à jour du programme aura comme conséquence l'affichage d'une note d'entretien claire sur l'affichage du véhicule; de plus, cette mise à jour assurera une vitesse de fonctionnement constante de la pompe à l'intérieur des limites."},"vehicles":[{"year":2003,"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E CLASS","vehicle_id":"2003_mercedes-benz_e-class","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2004,"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E CLASS","vehicle_id":"2004_mercedes-benz_e-class","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2005,"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"E CLASS","vehicle_id":"2005_mercedes-benz_e-class","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2003,"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"SL CLASS","vehicle_id":"2003_mercedes-benz_sl-class","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2004,"make":"MERCEDES-BENZ","model":"SL CLASS","vehicle_id":"2004_mercedes-benz_sl-class","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2004210"}
