Complaints grouped by the component NHTSA recorded
Percentages are of component mentions. A single complaint can name more than one component, so these do not sum to the total complaint count.
No recalls in our database for this model year
That does not guarantee a specific vehicle is unaffected — recalls are issued against VINs, and new campaigns are announced regularly. Check a VIN on NHTSA.gov.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Mercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG”), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain AMG GT (192 platform), S-Class (223 platform) and SL (232 platform) vehicles, the fuel line connection to the engine might leak due to missing lubrication of the threaded connection. This leakage could cause an increase in evaporative emissions and therefore may not meet certain regulatory requirements.
ENGINE
Complaint Customers may notice a check engine light in the instrument cluster and may also complain of rough running. One or more of the following DTCs may be stored in the ME control unit (N3/10): P227900 ‑ A leak was detected in the intake air system P152B00 ‑ A leak was detected in the intake air system (cylinder bank 1) P152C00 ‑ A leak was detected in the intake air system (cylinder bank 2) Cause Root cause varies Remedy Check the intake and the evaporative emissions system for leak tightness. Should you identify any leaks, repair them, clear the DTC(s) and test drive the vehicle. If the codes do not return, release the vehicle back to the customer. If the codes do return, then perform the tests located in the attached PDF titled "air leak work instructions". Then, open a TIPS case with the following information: • Initial quick test • ME control unit log • Detailed results (including XENTRY print outs) of the tests performed in the "air leak work instructions"
STEERING
Complaint Slight creaking noises when steering. Cause Noises may come from one or more sleeves of the horn contact plate. Remedy Remove the horn contact plate and check the sleeves for noise; see attached video. If necessary, apply lubricant to the sleeves.
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
Complaint and recall counts across every year of this model
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
