The Mercedes-AMG GT is marketed as a high-performance sports car with cutting-edge engineering and luxury styling. Unfortunately, even top-tier vehicles can come with serious defects. Recently, several AMG GT models have faced an unusually high number of recalls, raising concerns for California consumers who purchased or leased these cars.
If your AMG GT is spending more time in the shop than on the road, you may be protected under the California Lemon Law.
Mercedes-AMG GT Models with High Recalls
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the following 2021 AMG GT models have been subject to an unusually high number of recalls:
- 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT-Class 2-Door RWD
- 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT-Class Roadster C RWD
- 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT-Class 4-Door 4WD
These recalls have involved safety issues ranging from electrical system defects to braking problems, suspension concerns, and more.
Common Problems with the Mercedes Benz AMG GT
Owners of AMG GT models have reported recurring issues, including:
- Electrical malfunctions (dashboard warning lights, infotainment glitches, or wiring defects)
- Engine and fuel system issues (stalling, fuel leaks, or loss of power under acceleration)
- Brake system failures (unexpected warning messages, premature brake wear, or reduced braking performance)
- Suspension and steering defects (noises, rough handling, or loss of stability at high speeds)
- Transmission problems (jerking, slipping, or hesitation during gear shifts)
When these problems repeat despite multiple dealer repair attempts, California law may recognize your AMG GT as a lemon.
How the California Lemon Law Protects AMG GT Owners
California has one of the nation’s strongest lemon laws. If your Mercedes-AMG GT has defects that substantially affect its use, value, or safety—and the manufacturer cannot repair them—you may be entitled to:
- A buyback/refund of your purchase or lease
- A replacement vehicle of equal value
- Payment of your attorney’s fees and costs by the manufacturer
This means pursuing a lemon law claim carries little to no financial risk for California drivers.
Signs Your Mercedes-AMG GT Might Be a Lemon
You may have a valid lemon law claim if your AMG GT has:
- Been repaired two or more times for a serious safety issue
- Required four or more repair attempts for the same recurring problem
- Spent 30 or more days out of service for warranty-related repairs
