Recalls

Good news: Recall repairs are almost always free. Book with any manufacturer dealer and quote the recall number. Transport Canada’s own wording is that a manufacturer “will almost always make these repairs free of charge”, so being asked to pay for recall work is unusual and worth questioning. Since 2018 the Minister of Transport can order a company to pay for repairs so owners do not bear the cost.

Transport Canada lists: Maybach S-class 2021–2023

What is wrong

Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause too much fuel to be injected into the engine. As a result, the exhaust system could overheat and cause the engine wiring harness to melt. If this happens, there could be a sudden loss of power to the wheels.

Why it matters

A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, wiring that melts could create the risk of a fire.

What the dealer will do

Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the engine control unit software.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to appear on the central display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that does not display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the MBUX multimedia system software.

Transport Canada lists: Maybach S-class 2021–2022 · S Class 2021–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the control module for the taillamps may not work properly. As a result, the rear turn signals, rear hazard warning lights, and reverse lights may not work properly.

Why it matters

Turn signals or reverse lights that do not work properly could cause road users to be confused of the driver's intentions. Hazard lights that do not work properly could make the vehicle less visible. These issues could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the rear lighting control module software.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with the emergency calling (eCall) system, there may be a software problem with the communications module. As a result, the emergency call feature may not work properly when there is a crash or when the SOS button is pressed.

Why it matters

If the emergency call system does not work in an emergency situation, there could be a delay in response from emergency services.

What the dealer will do

Mercedes-Benz will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to each vehicle. If the update cannot be completed successfully, you will be notified to schedule an appointment to have the update performed by a dealer.

Source: Transport Canada — Vehicle Recalls Database; NRCan — Fuel consumption ratings. Data current as of 6 August 2026. Running cost uses Ontario average prices (155 ¢/L, 14.5 ¢/kWh), which are hand-maintained estimates. These are average residential rates. A car’s charging is added on top of what your home already uses, so on a tiered, time-of-use or subsidised tariff it is billed at your top rate rather than this average — which makes the real cost higher, especially in the territories.
