Vehicle accelerates uncharacteristically slowly upon cold start in cold temperatures / high elevation. Many documented cases in previous and current model sprinter which uses the same om642 diesel engine. Https://sprinter-source.Com/forums/index.Php?Threads/71254/ there have been multiple times where i tried to cross an intersection or make a left across a highway upon recent cold start and the van accelerated very slowly, leaving me moving very slowly across the opposing traffic lane(s).

While driving on a highway and passing under a road sign describing the next exit, the sprinter van automatic crash avoidance kicked in, causing the van to automatically jam on the brakes and lose approximately 20 mph while causing the wheel to pull decidedly to the left. There were no vehicles in front or behind, and thankfully enough none close enough to cause an accident. This is a fairly common occurrence, and even if the brakes do not engage, the crash avoidance alert sound will often times chime and startle the driver for other overhead obstacles like traffic signs and tunnel entries. This feature, along with lane departure assist (which also is buggy) automatically turns on after every restart, even after being turned off manually. It is unsafe.

I only have about 2200 miles on this vehicle but i have noticed 3 times that the electronic 4 wheel drive engaged by itself as i was moving down the road. Your are only supposed to be able to engage the 4 wheel drive while stopped. I never noticed anything until i saw the red light which comes on when the 4 wheel is engaged. I went on line to see if others had experienced this and i saw several reports of the system engaging and not being able to get it disengaged as well as having the vehicle not be drivable afterwards. I have not experience anything but it going into 4 wheel drive on its on without me engaging it. It occurred while in motion and twice on expressways and once onn a local low speed road

Your are only supposed to be able to engage the 4 wheel drive while stopped. I never noticed anything until i saw the red light which comes on when the 4 wheel is engaged. I went on line to see if others had experienced this and i saw several reports of the system engaging and not being able to get it disengaged as well as having the vehicle not be drivable afterwards. I have not experience anything but it going into 4 wheel drive on its on without me engaging it. It occurred while in motion and twice on expressways and once onn a local low speed road

I took my van to the local mercedes dealer concerned about nhtsa recall 20v-663. I know owners of sprinter vans who are taking their vans in for this recall and the spring type power steering clamp is being replaced with a screw clamp. My 2020 sprinter built in feb. 2020 is not being captured by the scope of this recall yet has a spring clamp installed and the hose is not fully seated. My vs30 platform 907 van was manufactured in germany rather than charleston, sc and for some reason is being excluded from this recall. My local mercedes dealer will not address this for me. It is my belief that the scope of this recall needs to be opened up to include vs30 platform 907 sprinter vans manufactured in germany during this same time period. Photo included shows a verified completed recall repair.
