Even though it's not the best of things to happen, it's always useful to know when and why your vehicle is being called in by the manufacturer. The latest recall in the States concerns the 2007 Mercedes-Benz S-Class. According to the German automaker, due to a manufacturing process flaw from the supplier's side, the radial knuckle of the front strut may fail after significant mileage accumulation combined with exposure to high continuous stress by driving on rough roads. If the radial knuckle happens to fail, then the steering control of the vehicle may be affected. Merc said that the recall is expected to begin in December and that its dealers will replace any problematic front struts free of charge.

This chopped Mercedes-Benz S-Class was hosted on Absolute’s stand. Absolute, an audio-system tuner, used the custom made S-Class Cabrio to show off its line of mobile audio and video products but we couldn’t withhold ourselves from sharing.

Yep, it’s another production hybrid model from Mercedes-Benz. Only this time the S 300 BLUETEC HYBRID combines a BLUETEC diesel engine with hybrid technology instead of a petrol-hybrid system like the ML 450 HYBRID that we showed you yesterday. We’re not sure if this is a typo-mistake or not, but Mercedes announces in its teaser release that the S 300 BLUETEC HYBRID is powered by a 4-cylinder diesel engine. There’s no way of checking it out now, so we’ll leave it as is. -Continued after the jump
Anyway, the diesel- hybrid module develops a combined system output of 165 kW / 224 hp and a maximum torque of 560 Nm. Its avg. fuel consumption is just 5.4 litres of diesel per 100 km (43.6 mpg) - equivalent to just 142 grams of CO2 per kilometre ‑ 57 grams or around 30 percent less than the current consumption and emissions benchmark in the S‑Class segment. Mercedes supports that the S 300 BLUETEC HYBRID has the potential to meet most stringent emissions standards such as EU6 or the BIN5 standard for 50 US states.
