There are 1 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQBin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
My 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQB 300 (VIN [XXX] ) is subject to a high-voltage battery safety recall involving a risk of internal short circuit and fire. Mercedes-Benz has acknowledged that the battery pack in affected vehicles can fail at high state of charge and may cause a thermal event while driving or parked. There is currently NO REMEDY available. Mercedes has already issued prior recalls attempting software fixes, but those did not resolve the defect. The manufacturer now states that the only remedy is full battery replacement, yet replacement battery packs are not available and no timeline has been provided. I have been instructed to park the vehicle outdoors due to fire risk. This is a major safety hazard that affects my home, property, and personal safety. The vehicle’s value is significantly diminished, and I am unable to use it normally because the manufacturer cannot repair it. Mercedes-Benz has failed to provide a remedy within a reasonable time for a serious safety defect. I am requesting NHTSA intervention to compel Mercedes-Benz to provide a repair, replacement vehicle, or buyback, as required under federal recall law when a remedy is unavailable. This situation is unacceptable for a safety-critical recall involving fire risk, and I am asking NHTSA to take action to ensure Mercedes-Benz complies with its obligations.
