Warranty Claim Notice

AMG GT, AMG SL (192, 232)

Mercedes-Benz AG, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain
subject vehicles, the drivetrain control unit does not meet current production specifications. The
system may experience an excessively high quiescent current draw on the vehicle, which could lead to
an increased discharge of the 12V battery.
MBUSA will conduct a service campaign. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will update the
drivetrain control unit software.
Affected VINs will be flagged as “OPEN” in VMI on Friday, January 16, 2026.
Please note the campaign will close after the warranty claim has been submitted. This change can
take at least one-day to reflect in NetStar VMI.

While we regret any inconvenience this may cause, MBUSA is determined to maintain a high level of vehicle quality and
customer satisfaction. Please refer all customer inquiries to the Customer Care Center at 1-800-FOR-MERCEDES.
