The 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG EQS 53 has 4 recalls, the most serious involving loose electrical connections near the front frame that can increase the risk of a vehicle fire.
A separate electrical concern involves the high-voltage battery monitoring software, which may fail to alert the driver when the battery malfunctions, leaving a potential issue undetected. On the physical side, the front or rear bumper tow ring can have insufficient thread depth and detach during towing or transport, raising the risk of a crash or injury to anyone nearby. There is also a rearview camera recall: a software error in the multimedia system can cause the camera display to go blank when reversing, reducing the driver's view behind the vehicle.
