This isn’t the first time the EQC has been recalled since it hit the market. In November 2020, the SUV was involved in a recall also related to a damaged wiring harness that could cause the power steering system to fail and also potentially trigger a fire.
Mercedes-Benz first introduced the EQC in the fall of 2018 and had intended on bringing it to the United States in early 2020. It would have undercut the Tesla Model X by approximately $17,000 but earlier this year, the automaker confirmed that the EQC’s U.S. launch had been delayed indefinitely. Instead, the first new all-electric model from Mercedes to land on U.S. shores is the EQS sedan, a luxurious alternative to the traditional S-Class.
Mercedes EQC models sold in other markets feature an 80 kWh battery pack and dual electric motors that produce 402 hp and 561 lb-ft (760 Nm) of torque.
