The 2022 Mercedes EQS has only been on sale for a few months and yet the electric fullsize sedan is already facing a second recall in the United States. As a refresher, the first problem impacted the EQS 450 and EQS 580 that had a software bug, which allowed the driver and front passenger to watch TV on the center screen even while the car was in motion<\/a>.<\/p>\n The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has now issued a second recall, and this time around, it’s related to the eCall function. Once again, the issue stems from bad software that may restrict or disable the emergency call system altogether. Interestingly, the NHTSA mentions a single car will be subjected to the recall, specifically an EQS 450. However, the gasoline-fueled S-Class in S500 and S580 flavors share the same software bug, bringing the grand total of recalled vehicles to 1,239 units.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
