2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class Safety Report

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class currently presents a very limited safety data picture due to its low complaint volume and lack of formal NHTSA crash test ratings. With only 4 total complaints, 0 crashes, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 deaths reported to NHTSA, there isn't sufficient data to identify widespread safety concerns. The primary complaint pattern revolves around the 'FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE', accounting for 3 out of 4 complaints, and 'FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM' with 1 complaint. These complaints specifically mention issues related to an unaddressed recall (NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V880000) where parts for the repair were not yet available, leading to owner frustration and perceived safety concerns. There are no recalls officially listed for the 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class in the provided data, which contradicts the specific complaints referencing NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V880000. This discrepancy suggests that while owners are aware of a fuel system recall, it might not be formally reflected in the general recall count provided, or it's a very recent development. The complaints highlight a significant issue with recall remedy availability, leaving owners with potentially unsafe vehicles. NHTSA has not conducted crash tests for the 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class, resulting in 'N/A' ratings for Overall, Frontal, Side, and Rollover safety. This lack of data means its crashworthiness performance is unknown from an independent government testing perspective. Given the very low complaint volume and the absence of crash test data, a definitive overall safety assessment is challenging. The most pressing safety concern identified is the delay in addressing the fuel system recall, which owners perceive as a safety risk.

Our recommendation: Given the very limited data and lack of crash test ratings, potential buyers should prioritize verifying the status and remedy availability for NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V880000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) before purchase.
