It is a KNOWN problem with owners with no known recall as far as I am aware. It is an extremely abrupt maneuver that has pushed me halfway into the other lane during just moderate winds. I am a professional driver, having pulled double 45' tractor trailers and am very skilled in my driving. This crosswind assist feature is DANGEROUS, and I can barely retain control when it kicks in. It applies the brakes on the side that is getting pushed by the wind and tries to correct the steering all at the same time. It is way too abrupt. The tendency of the driver at that point may be to correct this as it is happening. If this was on icy roads the results would be catastrophic. It is hazardous even on dry roads. This is not a feature that Mercedes allows to be disabled. How can NHTSA allow this hazardous feature to not be included in a recall? I am scared for my safety and for that of my family. I have discussed this with the dealership with no affirmation that there is a problem. I am putting this in your hands with a Certified letter to go out to both your Executive Director Jack Danielson as well as Mercedes US CEO, Dimitris Psillakis requesting action for all Sprinter van owners that have this Crosswind Assist feature. Thank you.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"MERCEDES-BENZ","productModel":"SPRINTER 2500","manufacturer":"Daimler Vans USA, LLC"}]}]}
