Check Coolant Line, Replace if Necessary

This Service Campaign has been initiated because Daimler AG has determined that the coolant hose in the area of the fan shroud may work loose when driving on rough roads due to insufficient retention of the bracket. The dealer will fasten the hose with an additional cable tie at the next workshop visit. In addition, if the hose is found to be damaged it will be replaced.
