The 2019 Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a turbocharger oil feed line that can leak onto hot engine or exhaust components and start an engine fire.
The remaining two recalls both involve the automatic crash notification system, known as eCall. One recall addresses a condition where the system can become disabled entirely, meaning it cannot connect to an emergency call center after a crash. The other covers a related fault where the system may transmit incorrect location data, sending emergency responders to the wrong place. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the underlying issue, which is why both remain open. Neither affects how the car drives, but both can delay emergency response after a serious accident.
