2017 AMG GTS Faces Complete A/C and Power Steering Failure

A 2017 Mercedes-AMG GTS owner reports a complete failure of both the air conditioning and power steering systems simultaneously. The issue, shared on MBWorld, affects the GT/C190/R190 model and appears to be a total loss of function rather than a gradual degradation.
The owner describes both systems going out at once, which suggests a common underlying cause, likely electrical or hydraulic, rather than two separate component failures. While the exact root cause isn't specified in the report, the combined failure points to a shared power source or control module issue.
For AMG GTS owners, this serves as a reminder that high-performance vehicles can experience cascading system failures, especially as they age. A complete A/C and power steering loss makes the car nearly undrivable and uncomfortable in warm weather.
If you're experiencing similar issues, it's advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a specialist familiar with AMG models. Early diagnosis could prevent further damage to related systems. Boca Auto Care recommends addressing such failures promptly to avoid more costly repairs down the road.
