Known issues on the 2016 SLK300. Four recalls name the 2016 SLK300. Certain cars built January 19 to April 19, 2016 had faulty rear tie rod lock nuts, letting rear alignment shift so the rear axle steered on its own. On certain cars built June 2 to July 14, 2015 with the nine-speed automatic, a poorly connected backup supply for the ignition switch could leave the driver unable to select Park or set the parking brake after main battery power failed, so the car could roll. Certain roadsters built July 17 to August 31, 2015 had camshaft welds that could fail and stall the engine. Torque values, wiring diagrams and procedures for these systems are covered.
