Comfort

James H., IN (2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class)

Value

Did you get what you wanted relative to the price you paid?

What Owners Say

"We've had a few minor but annoying issues with this car, and one major issue. The engine idler cam shaft was not properly hardened in the factory per their requirement which made it wear out early (51000 miles). The dealership reluctantly agreed to pay for half the cost which was $5400. This was their fault, but they refused to cover the whole cost."

Anonymous, WA (2007 Mercedes-Benz C-Class)

"When I bought my 2007 C280 M-B with M272 engine, it was known (but not revealed by M-B) that there could be a defect in the balance shaft sprocket which would not occur until the engine was out of warranty. This happened to me. After costly repair and great inconvenience, I filed a claim with a class action lawsuit and recovered about 20% of my expenses."
