| Defect summary | Mercedes-benz usa, llc. (mbusa) is recalling certain model year 2014 e350 and e350 4matic sedans manufactured june 4, 2014, to july 9, 2014. The affected vehicles were built with a fuel feed line that has a single flare fitting instead of a double flare fitting. |
| Consequence summary | If the fuel feed line has the incorrect flare fitting, the connection between the fuel hose and the fuel feed line might develop a leak or may completely disconnect. Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire and if the fuel feed line disconnects, the vehicle would stall, increasing the risk of a crash. |
| Corrective action | Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will install the correct fuel line, free of charge. This recall began on january 11, 2016. Owners may contact mercedes-benz customer service at 1-800-367-6372. |
| Recall notes | Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty: 1-800-424-9153). |
