“mechanical and safety-related failures observed in a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, specifically involving the suspension system, wheels, and braking components.

NHTSA complaint #11676456, filed 2025-07“The contact owns a 2022 Mercedes-Benz S580. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle vibrated violently.
