So, back in April I took the plunge and leased a pre registered EQC 400 AMG Line Edition through MB Finance. We chose to lease rather than buy with the uncertainty of the EV project and felt the lease enables me to test the water so to speak. Well, the EQC was a genuine WOW moment and the nighttime charging at 7.5 ppkwh makes the 400BHP monster cheap as chips to run. After around 3 weeks and 1000 miles my wife received a text message from MB saying there was a high voltage battery fault. Strange as we’d used the car the day before and the display showed around 60% battery charge and we experienced no problems. Anyway, by the time the AA arrived the car was totally dead and a loan C Class was dropped off by EuropCar that evening. The following day (4th May 2024) the EQC was dragged onto a flat bed and taken to our local dealer where it’s been since. After 5 days the C Class was swapped for an EQB 350 which we’ve had since with no problems. We’ve had no calls from MB with any updates and when I’ve called most weeks I’m told the battery is on it’s way from Germany but that’s now over a month and the battery still isn’t here. I did say I wanted to reject the vehicle in my first call to their assistance but that seems to have never hit MB as when i called this week to reject i was told their process is 8 weeks. I know things fail but it would be nice if it felt like MB were bothered.
