Mercedes-Benz has issued a recall for certain G580 EQ electric SUVs due to a potential wheel fastener issue. The recall affects 3,734 vehicles from the 2025 model year, manufactured between February 2024 and August 2025.The problem stems from the use of wheel bolts designed for the gasoline-powered G-Class. In the electric version, increased weight and torque create additional stress that the original components weren’t engineered to handle. Over time, these bolts could loosen, which in rare cases might lead to wheel detachment and an elevated accident risk. Importantly, no accidents or warranty claims related to this defect have been reported to date.Mercedes-Benz has already developed a fix: dealers will replace the bolts free of charge with a new two-component design specifically rated for higher loads. These updated parts have been installed on vehicles produced after August 2025.
