Several Mercedes-Benz model vehicles were voluntarily recalled over an issue that can cause the engine to stall while driving, authorities said.

Water can infiltrate the rear area of the vehicles and accumulate in the spare wheel well over time, according to recall documents. The water may come into contact with a fuel pump control unit.

“Consequently, the fuel supply to the engine could be interrupted, which would lead to a loss of propulsion without warning,” The recall reads. “In such circumstances, the risk of a crash could be increased.”Mercedes-Benz said it would finish notifying owners before Feb.21. The vehicles can be taken to a dealer where they will install a water drain plug in the wheel well, and replace the fuel pump control unit if necessary.
