Owner report 11662245 · 2025-05-21 (May 21, 2025)
On February 3, 2025, a recall (NHTSA Recall No. 25V050 / Manufacturer Recall No. 2025040005) was issued for my 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQB 250+ due to a defect involving the high-voltage battery that may cause a fire. I brought the vehicle to the dealership shortly after the recall was announced. The service department informed me that no remedy is currently available and they do not have a timeline for when one will be. This unresolved recall places my safety, and the safety of others, at risk, as the vehicle could potentially catch fire without war…

Owner report 11664100 · 2025-05-31 (May 31, 2025)
Prior to the recall this vehicle has had two incidents where it had to be brought into the dealership. One of those incidents caused the SUV to be in the shop for approx. a month where the battery was not holding a charge/could not be charged and the manufacture in Germany had to be contacted. The second time I driving out of town and the battery was fully charged (280 miles) for a 180 mile trip and by the time I arrived at my destination I had 30 miles remaining for a charge. I ran out of battery and had to be towed to another charging station…

Owner report 11704610 · 2025-12-11 (December 11, 2025)
Mercedes built the car with a faulty battery and now they want to provide an "update" to the car that makes it worse: reduced battery life and slower charging times. So I have to choose between only charging my car to 80% or taking their update which makes my car worse. How can the NHTSA allow that to be the solution to the problem?

Owner report 11722866 · 2026-03-09 (March 9, 2026)
THere is a global recall of the 2023 EQB 250 vehicle due to an unfixed battery issue. (It is the second recall for the same issue fur my vehicle). However, the manufacturer has not sent me any warning about the latest battery recall (critical risk of fire). The dealer is only engaging over voice calls and refusing to put any acknowledgement of the recall or the risk in writing. There is no remedy in sight, and they are unable to exchange the impacted battery either. The utility of vehicle has decreased significantly, and is a real risk fo…

Owner report 11724806 · 2026-03-16 (March 16, 2026)
Urgent fire risk- 2nd time I have received recall. The wait time for the first was months. The fix on that recall did not remedy the recall and we now received another. I have been unable to charge at home with a level 2 charger out of fear of catching fire as my port is attached to my home. No remedy is available other than a continuous wait for possible replacement of battery. This is a huge safety risk and I feel unsafe operating this vehicle. Operating my vehicle with my children in the car has caused me a great deal of fear and anxiety. Th…
