The 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 S has 3 recalls, the most serious being a faulty electronic stability control software version that can cause the system to respond incorrectly during a skid or loss of traction, raising the risk of a crash.
The remaining two recalls involve software faults as well. A bug in the vehicle's emergency communication system can report an inaccurate location to emergency responders, which could delay help from reaching the scene after a crash. The rearview camera can also fail to display an image when reversing due to a separate software error, leaving the driver with no view of what is directly behind the vehicle.
