6 safety recall campaigns, 2 carrying NHTSA's "park it" advisory, 2 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
2 campaigns covering the 2022 MERCEDES BENZ AMG G63 carry NHTSA’s “park it” advisory — the federal government telling owners to stop driving the vehicle until the remedy has been performed. Whether it was performed on any particular car is not something NHTSA publishes in a form anyone can query; a franchised dealer can run the VIN and print the record in a minute, and the repair is free.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Oil leaking onto the roadway may cause a road hazard for following traffic. Rear axle failure can result in a sudden loss of handling or drive power. Either of these conditions can increase the risk of a crash.
A loss of rear wheel control and drive power can increase the risk of a crash. In addition, differential oil that leaks onto the road can increase the risk of a crash.
The rear door may appear closed even when the latch is not fully engaged, allowing the door to open while driving and increasing the risk of injury or a crash. Damaged latch components may prevent the rear door from being opened while inside the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
In the event of a crash, the incorrect refrigerant may leak and increase the risk of a fire.
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash.
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash.
Two 2022 MERCEDES BENZ AMG G63s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
