Check Engine Light Flashing
When the check engine light is flashing on your 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA it usually signals an active misfire or condition that could damage the catalytic converter if driven long. A flashing light is an urgent indicator — continuing to drive increases risk of severe engine or emissions system damage and higher repair costs. At Mercedes-Benz of Chesterfield in Chesterfield, MO our diagnostic workflow begins the moment your vehicle arrives: a certified technician captures live data, reads stored and pending codes, and performs any necessary controlled road tests to reproduce the fault. We prioritize clear communication, giving you a straightforward estimate and repair timeline.

Common check engine light codes on the 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA include P0171/P0174 (fuel trim issues), P0300–P0304 (misfires), P0420 (catalytic converter efficiency), and various oxygen sensor codes.
