Known issues on the 2016 G65 AMG. Three recalls are recorded against this year. On certain vehicles, a stability control fault while Distronic Plus was active could keep the engine from cutting power no matter the speed or brake input, so stopping took extra braking effort or a shift to neutral; dealers reprogrammed the control unit. Certain others had a steering coupling that might not have been tightened enough and could wear to the point of losing steering. The manual's steering torque values, diagnostics and wiring diagrams cover these systems.
