Owners will be contacted this week regarding the problem, which could cause a loss of fluid from the power assisted steering system.

Every customer will be invited to take their car to a local Mercedes dealership, where a nut inside the power steering pump will be checked and tightened.

If a customer is already experiencing steering problems, they are urged to contact their Mercedes dealership immediately.
