The German Automaker is recalling the Mercedes G-65 because it can speed backwards.

The 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 made the G-wagon very fast that it could go very fast when driving in reverse.

According to the statement released by the National Highway Traffic Safety istration, “These vehicles may be equipped with the incorrect reverse speed limitation software. While in reverse, any abrupt changes in steering while exceeding 16 MPH may cause the vehicle to become unstable.”

To fix the problem, the manufacturer will be updating the engine control software to limit the vehicle’s speed in reverse.

The recalls affects the top version of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class so the automaker had to recall a handful of them.

they have to, if the vehicle is insured, because if an Accident occures as a result of the fault the owner will no be entitled to any claim. besides Benz will give a new and unfaulty vehicle to the owners without a charge.

why would anyone not want to return it anyway? i will be for their own good.
