MERCEDES BENZ announced a problem with the Atego affecting a total of 567 vehicles.
The forward supporting rail for the fuel tank may crack and, if not noticed may fail, resulting in the fuel tank dragging on the ground and eventually leaking fuel on to the road surface. Vehicles built from 1/1/2004 to 31/12/2006 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to, where necessary, replace the front supporting rail for the fuel tank and to retrofit a reinforcement.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest MERCEDES BENZ dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
