Concern

Initialisation of Central Control Unit

Defect, as DVSA words it

Mercedes-Benz AG has determined that on certain Citan/eCitan model vehicles the central control unit might not initialise.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

As a remedy Mercedes-Benz AG via its Mercedes-Benz service partners will update the software of the central gateway control unit on the affected vehicles.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
