EQS recall

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/recalls/2023/05/08/mercedes-benz-recall-sedan-battery-tiffin-breeze/70190442007/

Hopefully we don't have to wait a month or 2 to get appointments to get this done. Don't know if this is all cars and if EQS SUV is part of this

Article said notices will be mailed out June 27. Why the nearly 2 month wait??

It looks like it affects all EQS models. Its just a software update.

I also got "0 Unrepaired Recalls" when I entered my VIN (for a 2023 EQS SUV) into the NHTSA web site. But the recall notice (PDF) linked to above clearly states that it includes the EQS SUV.
Has anyone gotten a notice of this recall when they enter their VIN (for an EQS SUV or Sedan) into the NHTSA web site?

I entered my 23 EQS 580 sedan and said no recall. I think it’s too early to tell.

My guess is it takes time for individual VINs to show up in the public facing (and NHTSA) databases. Had similar experiences in the past when it took a few weeks to months after news broke.

FYI - The recall stated only 3800+ vehicles are affected
