Mercedes-Benz will upgrade engine software in Vito vans as well as the GLC SUV and C-Class sedan, Transport Minister Andreas Scheuer said Monday in a statement from Berlin, after meeting with Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche for a second time in two weeks.
Germany’s automotive regulator KBA found 5 unapproved software functions in Daimler’s Euro 6 diesel engines, affecting as many as 1 million vehicles in Germany.
