There are 3 owner-reported body & structure complaints for the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQSin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
While driving the car at any speed between 35mph-70mph, one of the doors will occasionally unlatch. No more than one has unlatched at the same time. All four doors are set to lock automatically once the car is in motion. When a door unlatches, I get a visual alert on the dash, car dings loudly, and I can visually see a 2-3 inch gap between the open door and the vehicle. The door lock symbol on the driver's door still shows the doors are locked (even when the driver's door is the one unlatched). It is frightening when this occurs. Another issue also occurs intermittently. While driving, the hyperscreen will emitted an alert almost as loud as a tornado siren, the car symbol flashes onto the hyperscreen with red lines along all four sides of the car symbol. Within seconds, the command center turns off. I have no ability to know the speed or manage any controls on the car. I am not certain the car is safe to drive. The problems cannot be be recreated on demand. The manufacturer does not release a list of problems that are corrected by software updates, so I do not know if an update could fix these problems. My local dealer does not know much about the EQ line of cars at all. It is not safe to take photos when this occurs since I am actively driving. The car is available for inspect upon request.
