Takata recalls affect the Vito/Viano, Sprinter, A-, C-, E-, G- and R-Class, GL, GLK, ML, SLK and SLS AMG as well as the Actros, Antos, Arocs and Atego trucks. The KBA collective campaign 9105 overlaps with the individual Sprinter, Vito and Viano campaigns; the figures must not be added up. KBA recall 17121R for the S-Class (series 223), by contrast, concerns the brake hoses and is not a Takata recall; it is deliberately not listed here. For the Vito/Viano (series 639), 15198R only applies to vehicles whose driver airbag was replaced during a workshop visit.
