Campaign No. :Campaign Desc. :Brake Pedal Bearing Block
2021030018PDGBREBOL
This is to notify you of an upcoming Recall Campaign concerning the brake pedal bearing block on approximately 56,534 MY19-20 Mercedes-BenzeBay logo and FreightlinereBay logo SprintereBay logo vans. The recall campaign will be visible on the www.safercar.gov website and may generate questions from customers. All affected VINs will be flagged “PENDING” in VMI and cannot be sold.
Background
IssueMercedes-BenzeBay logo AG (MBAG) the manufacturer of Mercedes-BenzeBay logo and FreightlinereBay logo vans, has determined that on certain platform 907 (VS30) SprintereBay logo vehicles, the retaining washer on the bolt that connects the brake pedal to its bearing block could come loose. If the retaining washer comes loose, over time it could detach from the bolt, and in the worst case and with ongoing use of the brake pedal, the bolt may work its way out of the bearing block on one side. If this occurs, the brake lamp switch may become permanently activated even when the brake pedal is not pressed. If the brake lamps are permanently illuminated, it would not be possible for following traffic to determine the braking intention of the vehicle, which could increase the risk of a crash.
What We’re DoingDVUSA will conduct a voluntary recall campaign. Mercedes-BenzeBay logo or FreightlinereBay logo customers affected by this measure will be informed about the recall and the necessary next steps in writing and will receive notice through the interim customer notification.
PartsParts are still being verified.

Outzone B800 BMW SRS Airbag Reset Tool | OBDII Scanner Read & Clear Fault Codes | Fits E36/E46/E34/E38/E39/Z3/X5 (1994-2003) – Except 2001 330i
  • ✔️【Professional SRS Reset for 1994-2003 BMWeBay logo】 Designed specifically for classic BMWeBay logo models (1994-2003). This B800 scanner reads & clears SRS airbag fault codes, turns off the warning light, and saves you a costly dealer visit. Confirmed compatible with: E36, E46 (EXCEPT 2001 330i), E34, E38, E39, Z3, and X5 (E53). NOT compatible with any BMWeBay logo built before 1994 or after 2003.
  • ✔️【Important: Two Different Connection Ports – Read Before Use】 To avoid “not working” issues, please note: For 1994–2000 BMWs (most E36, E34, Z3, early E39), the SRS diagnostic port is a round 20-pin connector under the hood. You MUST use the included 16-pin to 20-pin adapter cable. For 2000–2003 models (late E46, E39, X5), use the standard OBD-II port inside the cabin. Incorrect connection is the #1 reason for “incompatibility” reports.
