What's wrong?
On the 2022 Mercedes-Benz Eqs 580, the multi-purpose camera and the inside rearview mirror are bonded to the windshield. The camera feeds driver assistance features such as adaptive cruise control, brake assist, lane keeping, traffic sign recognition, rain sensing, and light sensing. The mirror gives the driver rear visibility, and both parts need a solid windshield mount to stay aligned.
In recall 23V074, the problem is the adhesive joint, the bonded layer that holds those parts to the glass. A supplier production deviation left the bond below the required strength. If the bond loosens after delivery, the camera or mirror can detach or shift, which can interfere with front passenger air bag deployment and the assistance systems that depend on the camera's position.
There is no warning sign before failure. The driver will not receive a warning message before the camera or mirror comes loose.
