What is wrong
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Mercedes GLE 550e 4MATIC vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FVMSS) number 101, "Tire Selection and Rims."
Risk
Applying incorrectly sized tires to the vehicle will affect the speedometer reading, which can increase the risk of a crash.
