MERCEDES-BENZ Complaints

February 2026, our vehicle was recalled for the Battery Issue. We contacted Mercedes Benz USA LLC, several several times ,we filed a claim, they said it would be for a Buy Back, we can not get anyone to call us back to resolve this issue, we contacted the dealer that we purchased the vehicle from and they will not call us back at all. Meanwhile we have received emails from the Charging Station Companies that we can no longer charge our vehicle with their companies due to the recall on the Battery, per the recall they reviewed / received, so we are stuck with a car that we can not charge / drive. We need help.

I am reporting a safety concern regarding my 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQB 300 (VIN: [XXX] ), currently subject to NHTSA Recall 26V073 involving the high-voltage battery. According to NHTSA records and the manufacturer’s recall notice, this vehicle has an urgent safety recall due to a risk of fire caused by a potential internal short circuit in the high-voltage battery. The defect may result in a vehicle fire while driving or parked. The recall was issued around February 9, 2026, and remains unrepaired with no remedy available. The manufacturer has indicated a permanent repair may not be available until approximately December 2026. I have been instructed to limit charging to 80% and to park the vehicle outside due to fire risk, yet I am still expected to operate the vehicle and transport my family. Additionally, I received third-party notification advising that my vehicle should not use DC fast charging due to this safety risk, significantly limiting normal use. Mercedes-Benz USA offered a monetary payment conditioned on waiving all current and future legal rights while the vehicle remains unrepaired. I have not been provided a guaranteed loaner or replacement vehicle, and the dealership has requested return of the loaner. Due to these limitations, I am incurring and expect additional costs and loss of normal vehicle use, including reduced access to charging benefits and potential fuel or charging expenses. This situation requires continued use of a vehicle with a known fire risk, no remedy, and restricted functionality without reliable alternative transportation. I request this be documented as a safety concern involving the defect, delayed remedy, and limitations on safe and normal vehicle operation.
