What can go wrong

Mercedes-Benz AG has determined that on certain EQA (243 platform) vehicles a risk of fire of the high-voltage battery (EB330) cannot be ruled out.

The fix

As a remedy Mercedes-Benz AG via its Mercedes-Benz service partners will update the software of the battery management system on the affected vehicles. Until this remedy becomes available customers are instructed to charge their vehicle's battery only to a maximum of 80%.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
