2017 Mercedes AMG GT

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2017 AMG GT.

The 2017 Mercedes AMG GT is recorded in the reliability data as a sparsely documented model year, supported by only one total owner complaint and five recalls across its profile. That sole complaint falls under Power Train, establishing it as the top complaint area and creating a narrow focal point within an otherwise lean dataset. Researchers therefore encounter a reliability history for this model year that is subdued in volume but specific in nature, meaning the few documented concerns that do exist are concentrated in the powertrain category.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2017 Mercedes AMG GT dominate in one area — the power train, 1 of 1 reports (100%), well ahead of the next concern. NHTSA has issued no recalls for this vehicle, so these are owner-reported concerns only. 0 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the power train pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
