Mercedes-Benz Issues Recall: Safety System Failure Risk
Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) has announced a recall affecting certain 2025 AMG G63 and G 580 vehicles due to a defect involving the front short-range radar sensor printed circuit board (PCB). This defect may cause the radar sensor to malfunction or fail entirely.
Why is this serious?
The radar sensor plays a critical role in several advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), including:
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
Collision avoidance and mitigation systems
Adaptive cruise control and other safety assistance features
If the radar sensor fails, the vehicle may lose these safety functions without warning, increasing the risk of a collision.
🔧 What Mercedes-Benz Owners Should Know
The affected vehicles include certain:
2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG G63
2025 Mercedes-Benz G 580
Mercedes-Benz dealerships will inspect and replace the defective radar sensor PCB if needed — typically at no cost to the owner.
Owners should receive an official recall notice. If you experience safety-related warnings, inconsistent braking assistance, or malfunction indicators on your dashboard, schedule a diagnostic appointment immediately.
🛑 Could This Trigger Lemon Law Protection?
Yes — potentially.
Under the California Lemon Law (Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act), a vehicle may qualify as a lemon if:
The manufacturer or dealership has made multiple unsuccessful repair attempts, or
The vehicle has been out of service for 30 or more cumulative days for warranty repairs.
If your Mercedes-Benz is repeatedly in the shop because of this radar sensor failure — or any other defect affecting use, value, or safety — you may be entitled to:
A refund (buyback)
A replacement vehicle
Cash compensation
And Mercedes-Benz must pay your attorney fees, not you.
✅ What You Should Do Next
If you received a recall notice or have needed repeated repairs to your AMG G-Class:
Document every repair visit.
Save emails, invoices, and service reports.
Contact a lemon law attorney early — before the repair process drags on.
Even if the dealership says, “We’re working on it,” that does not stop your lemon law rights from applying.
