What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationPicked out of NHTSA’s summary below, word for word. The document itself is the record, and the dealer checks the VIN.
Mercedes-Benz AG, the manufacturer of Mercedes-Benz vehicles, has determined that on certain subject vehicles, the software and coding of the door control units may not correspond to current production specifications. As a result, the side windows may not properly clear the window seals when opening or closing the doors, which could potentially damage the window seals. MBUSA will conduct a service campaign. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will perform an initial start-up of the door control units.

What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 1 model year this bulletin names have filed 35 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 10 of them name Electrical System — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On April 15, 2026 at approximately 1:30 PM PT, I entered my 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV 500 4MATIC (approximately 20,000 miles) in my garage. The vehicle was not plugged in or charging prior to entry. I opened the car, sat in the driver's seat, and authenticated via the fingerprint scanner.
