Known issues on the 2016 CLS550. One recall is recorded for this year, tied to software rather than hardware. On certain cars a fault could make the emergency call system's date and time differ from the actual values, so the location it relays might be wrong, which could slow responders. Mercedes-Benz sent a remote software update, with dealers checking or reflashing the communication module where needed. Communication module diagnostics and wiring diagrams are included in this manual.
