The hazard
On certain vehicles, the front brake hoses could fail and cause a progressive brake fluid leak. If this happens, you may experience a change in brake pedal feel and travel. This can cause reduced braking.
Reduced braking can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the front brake hoses.
