  We suggest that you contact your servicing dealer if you see a bulletin listed below that concerns your motor. Keep in mind that most service bulletins, are only intended to advise service personnel of updated parts and/or service procedures, and not to announce recalls and/or problems with a specific product.
By law, Owners of recalled products are advised, by mail, directly by the manufacturer with information concerning the recall. Mercury Marine offers several customer support pages.
  • Bulletins from Mercury

    Special Note: Just because you don't see a recall or service bulletin listed here, for your product, doesn't mean there isn't one. The only way to know for sure is to contact your selling dealer.
    Our tip is to check with your servicing dealer, each year, for at least the first three to four years. Service bulletins are constantly being published that may enhance the performance and operation of your motor.

The following is old but is still here as reference material.

MCOEM-96-3 - COMMANDER 3000 REMOTE CONTROL RECALL

    MCSB 96-13  and MCOEM-96-3 are important if you think you have a COMMANDER 3000 CONTROLLER. If your boat was manufactured in/or around 1996 and 1997, then you should stop using your boat and contact your servicing dealer if you are experiencing shifting issues related to the controller.

There is a chance that a recall controller could slip out of a boat builders at an earlier or later date than this, and/or the controller wasn't replaced under warranty so, if you are experiencing any problems with your controller, check with your servicing dealer, asap.
