What owners report
I am currently leasing a 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQB 250+. The vehicle displayed a warning related to the high-voltage battery system, indicating a potential malfunction and safety risk. I was advised that there may be an issue involving the high-voltage battery that could lead to battery failure and/or an increased risk of fire. Due to this warning, I no longer feel the vehicle is safe to operate or park near my home or other structures. The warning first appeared on the vehicle's dashboard while the vehicle was in normal use. The condition creates a significant safety concern because a high-voltage battery failure could potentially result in loss of propulsion, vehicle disablement, or a batter
Learning that my vehicle is subject to a battery-related recall has seriously undermined my trust. Battery defects in electric vehicles can present risks that include thermal events, loss of vehicle functionality, and other potentially dangerous situations. My vehicle has had warning signs, I received emails about the risks my vehicle can present directly from Mercedes. I have had my vehicle in the service department two times in two months for this same issue. My vehicle is overheating while charging.
Electrical System/Climate Control/Energy Management DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM: On XXX, I exited my 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQB 250+ at a parking lot in [XXX] to briefly enter a business. I left the vehicle running in Park and I took the key fob with me and left the climate control (AC) active. Three occupants remained inside the car: my wife, son, and dog. Without any warning, alert, or notification to the remaining occupants, the car automatically shut down its drivetrain and climate control system after approximately 5 to 10 minutes of idle time. The interior temperature in TX in summer conditions can reach dangerous levels within minutes of AC loss, creating a life-threatening situation for car
At the time of the incident, I was pulling into a parking space in a parking lot near a park. I was traveling at approximately 3-5 miles per hour, consistent with idle or walking speed during a routine parking maneuver. I was nearly stopped and aligned with the parking space when the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly accelerated without driver input. This occurred from a near-idle speed in a parking lot, not during roadway driving. During the unintended acceleration, the vehicle traveled over multiple curbs on both sides. No audible warnings, no beeping, no proximity alerts, no forward-collision warnings, and no automatic emergency braking activated at any time, despite the vehicle crossing
