Mercedes-Benz bulletin 2025010004
Mercedes-Benz filed this with NHTSA as a emissions communication dated Feb 27, 2025, received Feb 28, 2025, about the unknown or other. It names 9 model years (2022–2024). A emissions communication is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationMercedes-Benz AG (“MBAG�), the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz, has determined that on certain MY 2022-2024 EQE and EQS (294, 295, 296, and 297 platforms) vehicles, the Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI) label in the engine compartment may not be readily visible to a customer, since the Operator’s Manual directs that only workshop personnel are permitted to open the hood. MBUSA will conduct an Emission Service Campaign. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will apply an additional VECI Label on the driver’s door of affected vehicles, so that the label is readily visible to the customer. Affected customers will be notified via First Class letter to have the additional VECI label on the driver’s door of their vehicles.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

No. A emissions communication is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the 2025010004 repair free?
A emissions communication is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
