Defect Summary | Sprinter is recalling certain model year 2011 sprinter 3500 vehicles sold both under the mercedes-benz and freightliner brand names. the supplier of the rear springs rolled the spring eye diameter out of tolerance on a limited number of parts in its production, and then corrected the diameter without heating the parts. | |||||||||||||||
Consequence Summary | This could potentially lead to a crack of the spring eye over time, which increases the risk of a crash. | |||||||||||||||
