Mercedes-Benz Recalls EQB Electric SUVs Over Battery Problems

Mercedes-Benz had to call back some of its EQB electric SUVs.

One problem is that the batteries could catch fire because of a short circuit.

To stay safe, owners are told not to charge their cars fully until a software update is released, which will fix the problem.

There have been fire issues in China, but not in the US so far.

Another recall is because the car might suddenly lose power while driving.

This is because a small screw in the battery pack wasn't put in correctly.

If this happens, the car could stop without warning, which is risky.

The company found this issue after some complaints and testing.
