"sealed taillight unit had moisture inside and needed to be replaced under warranty"

"right front headlight and running lights would not go off. Had to order a new motherboard to correct"

"Interior trunk light not working"

"Factory alignment specs cannot be adjusted without an expensive upgrade - MB did not inform me that it was still "off" when they replaced tires. on my 3rd set in 30,000 miles - each wears to the cords on the inside edges - even though factory and dealer aligned. MB refuses to acknowledge issue verified by 3rd party."

"Front, passenger-side bushing had to be replaced when car was only 6 months old."

"Rediculous tire wear on installed run flat tires. Had to have replaced at 6K miles. Known problem."

"oil leak"

"Car would not start due to electrical failure."

"Oil leak"

"Rear brakes required new pads/rotors at 23K miles. Front pads show now wear."

"Steel on steel sound..ended up being recalled"

"Dealer change brake pads but it’s back again after 3000 miles or so. Mostly happens backing up"

"A main seal was replaced to stop massive oil leak - I cannot tell you which one. Oil was leaking rapidly"

"If it is a hot day, in the 80's, in order to cool the car off, you must turn the fan to the highest amount. There is very little difference between the settings 1-4. Never had that with a car before. I've complained & MBz said that that is the way the fan works. I disagree. When I first got the car I complained about several things, including this feature. I kept taking it in to be checked, & finally was told that that is how MBz fans work in their cars. I decided to just accept it after taking it in 6-8 times & they couldn't do anything about it. Also, the radio sound adjustments sucks. The control of the sound when you go back & forth from AM to FM is not the same. You have to turn the sound way up on the AM stations & when you switch to FM, if you don't turn the sound down lower before you switch, then right after switching, the sound will be blasting. I've never ever had a car that had this problem. Again when I first got the car, I took it in at least 6-8 times & they couldn't fix it. MBz claims that that is how all their radios perform. I have NEVER had a car's radio perform like this. It has never been fixed & I got tired of taking it in & so I just left it. But, because of these 2 features, I would never get another MBz again. And when you think of it, that should not be the reason not to get another MERCEDES-BENZ. I think it's interior is poorly designed."

"Merging onto I88. Doing 60mph, maybe, and I heard a "pop", then the engine died. Engine coolant and Oil all leaked out. All dash lights lit up. Pulled over to the side of the road. Called a tow truck. I was dead. They think a piston may have broken and punched a hole in the engine. The left side had a crack, about the length of my pinky finger. That was the good side. The right side had a hole. Looked like someone put a knife through it. The hole looked like an oval, kind of. That was on May 24th. I still don't have my car back. Naperville MERCEDES-BENZ has been great. Given me a loaner during the whole time (free). My engine is covered under warranty, but it has to be built in Germany and shipped to Naperville MERCEDES-BENZ for them to put it in. That was supposed to happen initially late June/early July. Then it was mid to late July. Now it's the week of Aug 17th, which starts tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath..."
