Mercedes-Benz has issued a recall for nearly 300,000 vehicles in the US and over 1 million worldwide.
Most are more than 10 years old.
Mercedes-Benz has issued a stop-drive notice for the affected vehicles until they can be inspected and repaired.
Some vehicle recalls are limited to the US, but others can affect vehicles around the world.
The latter is the case for the latest Mercedes-Benz recall.
Remedying the problem is a little complicated.
First, dealership technicians will inspect the recalled vehicles' brake boosters for corrosion.
If there is none, the vehicles can continue to be driven normally.
If corrosion is discovered, an additional test will determine how quickly the brake booster requires replacement.
