 Defect summaryDaimler vans usa llc (dvusa) is recalling certain 2016-2017 mercedes-benz metris vehicles. These vans were to be equipped with the blind spot monitoring (bsm) feature, however, the installed instrument cluster and steering wheel does not support the function, and thus, the bsm system does not work on the vehicle.
 Consequence summaryIf a vehicle is in the driver's blind spot, but the bsm system does not warn the driver, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
 Corrective actionDvusa will notify owners, and dealers will install the correct instrument cluster and steering wheel to enable the bsm function, free of charge. Interim notices informing owners of the safety risk were mailed on may 8, 2017. Owners will receive a second notice when the remedy becomes available. The recall began on may 26, 2017.
