There are 1 owner-reported steering complaints for the 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQSin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
While driving, the vehicle’s lane keeping system applied an unintended and aggressive steering input during a lane change. I was merging left when the system suddenly forced the steering sharply to the right without driver command. This was not a gentle correction—it was a strong, unexpected movement that could have caused a collision if another vehicle was nearby. In addition, the vehicle has ongoing intermittent ADAS malfunctions, including false forward-collision warnings, proximity sensors activating with no obstacles present, and Park Assist activating while the vehicle is moving on normal roads. I’ve also received messages such as “camera obstructed/visibility blocked” and “content unavailable in current vehicle position,” with ADAS features disabling themselves temporarily. These issues have occurred multiple times and continue to reappear even after several repair attempts by the dealer. Because the defects happen randomly and cannot be reliably reproduced, the vehicle feels unsafe to operate and unpredictable. The steering, sensors, and driver-assist systems do not appear to function correctly or consistently. The vehicle is available for inspection.
