FAULT LIGHT ON DASHBOARD SHOW A FAULT ICON THE 2021 AMG GT BLACKSERIES HAVE AN ACTIVE REAR WING. A PART OF THE ACTIVE REAR WING IS ACTIVE BUT HAS A HIGH FAILURE WHICH AT SOME SPEEDS CAN BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE ACTIVE PART IS NOT WORKING AND DO NOT PROVIDE THE DOWNFORCE THAT IT SHOULD BECAUSE OF THE ACTATOR FAILURES. THERE ARE A HIGH NUMBERS OF REPLACEMENT REQUESTED THROUGHT THE MERCEDES NETWORK BUT THEY ARE BEING REPLACED BY THE SAME PART # NOT AN UPDATED ONE TO AVOID FAILURES. SOME OWNERS DO NOT HAVE A REPLACEMENT DUE TO NONE IN STOCKS. THE 2021 IS UNDER WARRANTY BUT AMG MERCEDES HAS NOT , YET, INFORMED OWNERS OF THE POTENTIAL HAZARD. THE ACTIVE PART OF THE REAR WING WHEN FAILED IS SIMPLY NOT RESPONSIVE (NOT MOVING ACCORDING TO SPEEDS OR BRAKING ACTIONS). PLEASE REVIEW THE ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. THANK YOU
