• Models sold between 2004- 2015 have been recalled
Mercedes-Benz announced that it would recall nearly one million cars that were sold around the globe between 2004 and 2015 over brake-failure concerns.
Agence France-Presse reported the news on Monday citing the German federal transport authority.
The company said that models of the ML, GL (BR 164) and R-Class (BR 251) series produced between 2004 and 2015 are affected, of which nearly 70,000 are in Germany.
"We have found that in some of those vehicles, the function of the brake booster could be affected by advanced corrosion in the joint area of the housing," said Mercedes-Benz.
Mercedes said it was recalling the cars for inspection and had no way of knowing exactly how many would have corrosion damage.
