The 2023 Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE53 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a loose 48-volt ground connection under the passenger seat that can overheat and start a fire.
The fuel system also carries a notable risk: the fuel pump can shut down without warning while driving, cutting power to the wheels and leaving the vehicle unable to accelerate or maintain speed, which raises the risk of a collision. On the exterior, rear door window trim bars can detach from the vehicle at speed and become a road hazard for other drivers or pedestrians nearby.
