Electrical System
19 of the 61 complaints (31%) mention the electrical system. Electrical problems are made worse by desert heat, which ages batteries, cables and connectors. We test the battery, starter and charging system and trace faults to the actual part. See our battery replacement and starter & alternator repair pages.
Service Brakes
15 of the 61 complaints (24%) mention brakes. Brake complaints turn up on nearly every vehicle, and Phoenix stop-and-go traffic wears brake parts quickly. We measure pads and rotors, check calipers and fluid, and replace only what is worn. See our brake repair page.
Forward Collision Avoidance
14 of the 61 complaints (22%) mention driver-assistance and stability systems. Driver-assistance and stability systems rely on sensors and software. We scan for stored codes and diagnose sensor and wiring faults. See our check engine light diagnostics page.

Mercedes-Benz EQE Check Engine Codes
NHTSA owner complaints rarely cite specific trouble codes for the EQE, so we do not have a model-specific ranking to show. These are the check engine codes we see most often on vehicles in Phoenix heat, and any of them can show up on a Mercedes-Benz.
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| P0420 | Catalyst efficiency below threshold (bank 1) Often a worn catalytic converter, but failing oxygen sensors or exhaust leaks can set it too. Can cause an emissions test failure. |
| P0300 | Random or multiple cylinder misfire Worn spark plugs, failing ignition coils, fuel or vacuum problems. Do not ignore a flashing check engine light. |
| P0171 | System too lean (bank 1) Often a vacuum leak, dirty MAF sensor, weak fuel delivery or a failing oxygen sensor. |
| P0455 | EVAP system large leak Missing or loose gas cap, or a disconnected or cracked vapor hose. |
| P0128 | Coolant temperature below thermostat regulating temperature Usually a thermostat stuck open. Fix it to restore efficiency and cabin heat. |
| P0442 | EVAP system small leak Loose or worn gas cap, cracked hose or purge or vent valve. |
| P0301 | Cylinder 1 misfire Commonly a bad spark plug or ignition coil on that cylinder. |
| P0401 | EGR flow insufficient Clogged EGR passages or a stuck EGR valve. |
Got a check engine light on your EQE? A code is a clue, not a diagnosis, so we scan it and test the system before replacing anything. See our check engine light diagnostics.

Keeping a Mercedes-Benz EQE Reliable in Phoenix
Arizona heat is the hardest test a Mercedes-Benz will face. Batteries, belts, hoses, tires and engine oil all wear faster here, and a EQE that spends its life in stop-and-go Valley traffic needs maintenance earlier than the owner's manual's normal schedule suggests.
Our recommendation for EQE owners: follow the severe-service schedule, test the battery before every summer, inspect brakes and tires twice a year, and have any warning light diagnosed instead of ignored. If you are shopping for a used Mercedes-Benz EQE, a pre-purchase inspection shows what the paperwork does not.
