Mercedes warns 800,000 drivers of potential fire risk
CNN
Daimler's Mercedes-Benz has informed owners of its luxury cars of a technical defect that could spark a fire, adding a recall was not possible because parts needed to fix the problem are not available.
The issue was traced to possible leakage in the coolant pump that could heat up components, Daimler said on Tuesday.
The news was first reported by Germany's mass-selling Bild newspaper, which published a copy of a letter Daimler sent to some 800,000 Mercedes-Benz owners affected by the defect that said "the risk of a fire could not be ruled out."
