warning over 292,000 customers with select ML, GL, and R-Class vehicles between the 2006 and 2012 model years to stop driving them.

The German automaker said in a recall notice posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's website that moisture can accumulate and cause corrosion in the cars' brake booster housing units, potentially resulting in a vacuum leak and reduced brake performance.

In rare cases of very severe corrosion, hard breaking could potentially cause mechanical damage to the brake booster, resulting in brake failure and increasing the risk of a crash.

A foot-activated parking brake would still work.Mercedes notes that drivers with impacted vehicles may notice a change in the feel of their brake pedal or a hissing or airflow noise when applying the brake pedal before the issue occurs.

The Voice star and her hunky other half have been forced to move their wedding date a number of times due to the Covid pandemic, but will tie the knot today at Ely Cathedral.Pixie, 31, enjoyed one final party on Sunday before her big day, after she and Oliver got engaged at St Paul's Cathedral.Getting into the bridal spirit, the beauty slipped into a white jumpsuit as she declared it her "last night as Miss Lott".Guests began arriving at Ely Cathedral in Cambridgeshire in their finery, with many shielding themselves from the rain with umbrellas.Pixie's The Voice co-star Danny Jones, of McFly fame, was among the first to arrive, as were the likes of former Strictly star Emma Weymouth and Idris Elba's wife Sabrina.Former TOWIE star Tom Pearce was also among the attendees who made their way into the venue for the special event.Oliver looked dapper as he headed inside the cathedral, wearing a black-tie suit and white rose buttonhole with his groomsmen.Pixie – real name Victoria Louise Lott – has been in a relationship with Oliver for more than 10 years, since 2010.They took things to the next level in November 2016 after Oliver popped the question.Pixie burst onto the music scene in 2009 with her debut single Mama Do, but she'd already been working behind the scenes as a songwriter for acts such as Alexandra Burke and Selena Gomez.Since then, she has released three studio albums – Turn It Up in 2009, Young Foolish Happy in 2011, and the self-titled Pixie Lott in 2014.Turn It Up peaked at No6 in the UK charts, Young Foolish Happy hit No18, and Pixie Lott hit No15.Despite charting higher than her second album, it sold far fewer copies and dropped to No94 in its second week, with just 934 copies sold.Pixie is also known for her
