Found this in the web - sorry in case it has already been mentioned somewhere (translated with DeepL):

INFO Märklin Germany
Recall of a batch of booster 60175, delivered as of 03.2022.
If you have received a shipment of Märklin Boosters from March 2022 of Art. No. 60175 with a serial number in the range 190222024899 to 190222027446, please send this/these to us for repair or exchange to Göppingen.
Background:
As a result of the pandemic, many electronic components became difficult to obtain, including a special chip used in our boosters. In the course of our efforts to ensure the deliverability of this booster, we found an alternative component, tested it intensively by our quality assurance and released it for delivery. Delivery of these modified boosters began in March 2022.
Despite all preliminary tests, an error can now occur in boosters of this product batch: After a software update of the booster, it may stop functioning.
The malfunction only affects the booster itself, other connected devices such as a CS3 are not affected. We apologize for the occurrence of this error.
A repair can only be done on hardware level, therefore we ask for a return.
We will try to provide you with a replacement as soon as possible. Unfortunately, a date for this has not yet been set.
thanks 8 users liked this useful post by Unholz

Thanks for the notification Stefan. This no doubt explains why a search for 60175 on the BWBahn website a few days ago came back blank.
