To anyone else facing this issue, DO NOT GIVE YOUR VEHICLE BACK until a buy back plan is in place. The second you give it back and submit to the recall, they are NOT ALLOWED to give it back to you until it's fixed.

Anyone else go the legal route?
I ended up getting a 2023 in November, one that was not part of the original recall of 2022 models.

As you know, now the 2023 and 2022 models have been recalled again

I’m planning on looking into a buyback. Are you familiar with this. Any advice? Is it considered part of lemon law? Was going to contact an attorney this week, but wanted to be a little better versed before I did.

I spent another 15k between PPF and adding side steps

From what I understand, Mercedes is reaching out to each owner individually and will offer either another regular G63 or full buyback. I got my 4x4 in October and barely put any miles on it before getting the stop drive notice. I’m leaning towards going the full buyback route but might change my mind if I’m able to get moved to the front to order a new updated G63.

That’s correct my co-worker was contacted by MB, and it’s a 100% return of MSRP plus your taxes. Looks like they’re contacting each owner one by one, and clearly they have no fix which amazes me.

I'm in the buyback process now, hasn't been the easiest process, but MBUSA is being good to deal with. If anyone has any questions, pls feel free to message me

G63
Just finished the buyback process. Was able to get back everything that I paid without any questions including the $200k adm and $70k worth of aftermarket stuff. Took about 8 weeks total. MBUSA was great to deal with in my case.

What’s the latest here? Any fix? Or are most people selling back?

in process of selling back. It’s unfortunate because I love the car. But I can’t justify the 400k I paid for a car with these pros tail issues, and the implication it will have on future value
