ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY
- The defect
- Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2022-2023 EQB 350 4MATIC, and EQB 300 4MATIC vehicles. The bus bar in the high voltage battery may be secured with incorrect screws, which can cause the system to have a sudden loss of drive power without warning.
- What it can cause
- A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Owners are advised to park outside until the recall repair is complete. Dealers will inspect and replace the high-voltage battery as necessary, free of charge. This will be a phased campaign, with the remedy becoming available in different phases based on model and model years. Owner notification letters were mailed January 9, 2026. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2025080004.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 660 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 54% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2022 to 2023, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Mercedes-Benz vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 74 times before this, most recently in May 2025 as 25V255000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 77 complaints with NHTSA, 12 of them before this campaign was filed. 59 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in March 2023, 2 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 4 other recalls published here: 26V073000 (electrical system), 25V894000 (electrical system), 25V050000 (electrical system), 24V331000 (power train).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC with NHTSA on July 25, 2025 as campaign 25V487000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
