2014 Mercedes-Benz C-CLASS 2 DR 4WD

The contact owns 2014 Mercedes-Benz CL250. The contact stated while driving at night the driver’s side headlight became inoperable. Additionally, while using the left turn signal there was an abnormal clicking noise detected. The check left turn signal, driver’s side low beam, running lights and driver’s side parking light message was displayed. Additionally, while driving at night on another occasion, the passenger’s side headlight became inoperable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the gasket had deteriorated, and moisture was in the headlamps. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000. The VIN was not available.

I was trying to merge onto a freeway from a complete stop and because this freeway has an extremely short on-ramp, you need to get up to a high speed in very little time. As such, I put my car in Sport driving mode and accelerated very hard from a complete stop. The car accelerated as normal for a few seconds (I reached approximately 40 to 50 MPH), then I felt the car lag and felt a loss of power. The car was in limp mode and I couldn’t accelerate even though I was pressing the gas pedal all the way to the floor. A few seconds after this occurred, I notice that the check engine light turned on. I was able to maintain a speed around 50 MPH and got off the freeway. I took my car to both the Mercedes dealership and an independent mechanic and both diagnosed a failure of the high pressure fuel pump. I also tried to see if this will happen again and after hard acceleration in regular driving mode, the exact same issues occurred. I have read that there are issues with the high pressure fuel pump with my car model and I ask that you guys please investigate thoroughly to see if a recall would be necessary. Losing power while accelerating is extremely dangerous and a huge safety hazard for all drivers on the road. I could have easily been rear ended by another driver since I couldn’t accelerate to a faster speed. I have not yet replaced the high pressure fuel pump but plan to do so in the next few days. Attached is the diagnostic invoice from the Mercedes dealership. As stated on the invoice, please note that my car only has 43,000 miles, which makes the high pressure fuel pump failure very surprising.

The contact owns a 2014 Mercedes-Benz C250. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at various speeds, she depressed the brake pedal but it hesitated to respond. As a result, excessive force was applied to the brake pedal in order to slow down the vehicle. Due to the failure, the driver lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the barrier wall and the metal fence. No air bags were deployed. The contact's daughter sustained a fractured nose, lip laceration, and other unknown facial injuries due to the driver hitting the steering wheel during the impact. No medical attention was contacted yet but will be in the future. A police report was filed. The police transferred the vehicle from the crash site to a tow yard where the police are awaiting the insurance adjustor. Damages were to the front end. The manufacturer nor the dealer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was approximate 60,000

The current vehicle I have, is suppose to have a back up camera as part of being the basic standard for a 2014 C- class mercedes Benz. Ive asked the place I bought he car from and also Ed hicks imports, who also legally sells mercedes Benz in Corpus Christi, to install one, especially because according to the vin reports I bought, it was initially on the vehicle. I was even willing to pay them to install a factory made original MB backup camera that should’ve been there in the first place but they tell me to go buy an aftermarket! After further research, it turns out mercedes Benz makes all their cars with backup cameras or the PARKTRONIC option which is added sensors !!! Before my car was even brought over to the USA in 2014! Yes, all of these issues have been confirmed by another dealer, which is auto nation here!!!! Besides that, Ed hicks imports supposedly fixed two factory recalls with my car, where one was if the airbag on the passenger front side goes off, it would kill or harm, myself, and any occupants in the vehicle due to the metal fragments that would also burst and pierce, or exit through our bodies. However, my airbag notification comes on every time someone is in the front passenger seat as a warning, as well as my own driver side airbag that just started coming up when I turn on my vehicle. The steering is not fully mounted straight either, so it’s causing me a ton of gas to get to the closest places in town, as well as having me turn the wheel twice as much as I normally would need to on a car with a steering wheel properly mounted, which makes the time for me to finally turn my vehicle at any given time to turn a lot slower than other drivers around me. The last thing is the body of my vehicle not be big properly aligned, I did not know the car had been in ANY accidents, and recently discovered it’s been in 7 !!!so it makes sense why the whole chassis resembles a Chopshop car All of these parts of my vehicle are available for inspection

The contact owns a 2014 Mercedes-Benz C250W. The contact stated while attempting to start the ignition when entering the key. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not drivable. The contact towed the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the unknown ignition component to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired as of yet. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 54,000.

On 5/15/2021, I was driving in Phoenix, AZ at about 35-40mph and heard a large bang. Was not sure what happened. Struck nothing. It was dark. The next morning I came out and noticed that the glass panel in front of my panoramic sun roof had completely shattered with a long horizontal fissure. I went to the nearest dealership and was told he has seen this happen before. I asked if it was safe to drive 4.5hrs back to my home city, Las Vegas. He said yes. When I got back I called my MB service representative, described what happened and he said there is a recall coming up 5/21/2021 for that problem. I looked it up online and it is for 2015 C-Class forward. However, my 2014 MB AMG C63 coupe is the exact same model as the 2015 MB AMG C63 coupe. So I’m questioning why my vehicle is not included?

MY VEHICLE LOSSES POWER AND CAR MOVED INTO (LIMP MODE) DURING THE ACCELERATION PROCESS FOR PASSING, MERGING ONTO FREEWAY, COMING OUT OF A CORNER AND ACCELERATING. UPON DEALER DIAGNOSIS P0002 COMES UP AS HPFP AS THE CAUSE, AND I WAS NOTIFIED AS THIS BEING A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 1.8L MOTOR IN MY VEHICLE. ALONG WITH TIMING CHAIN, AND TENSIONER. I WAS TOLD THESE ISSUES WHILE DRIVING ARE DIRECTLY RELATED TO CAUSES ACCIDENTS.

WHILE DRIVING ON 95 HIGHWAY TAKING AN EXIT ( MAKING A RIGHT TURN ROUNDABOUT) THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED ON ME PREVENTING ME FROM CONTINUING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE EXIT CAUSING ME TO ALMOST CRASH INTO THE METAL RAILINGS; BECAUSE MY WHEELS NOW WHERE LOCKED IN A POSITION THAT WOULD FORCE ME TO CRASH INTO THE RAILINGS HAD I NOT STOPPED. I STOPPED AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART FOR THE STEERING WHEEL AND SYSTEM TO RESET AND UNLOCK. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED AROUND 2018 OR 2019. I NOTIFIED MERCEDES OF WHAT HAPPENED AND I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF A RECALL ON THE STEERING. I HAD THE RECALL CHECKED ON MY VEHICLE AND THOUGHT IT WAS FIXED. HOWEVER, TWICE IN NOVEMBER 2020 MY CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE STEERING WAS LOCKED AND THE IGNITION WOULD NOT START. THEN AFTER MAKING SEVERAL ATTEMPTS CAR EVENTUALLY STARTED. I CALLED MERCEDES AND I WAS TOLD OVER THE PHONE BY MERCEDES IT COULD BE MY KEY FAUB. HOWEVER, THIS HAPPENED A 4TH TIME ON DEC 24, 2020, NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO START CAR AND CAR WOULD NOT START, STEERING WAS LOCKED. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD BY MERCEDES THERES A FAULT IN THE STEERING LOCK MODULAR. THE ELECTRICAL WIRING IS FAULTY AND THE ENTIRE STEERING MODULAR HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, AND CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS WHEN IT MALFUNCTIONS WHILE DRIVING. I ASKED ABOUT THE RECALL THAT WAS ON THE STEERING AND WAS TOLD THE RECALL ADDRESSED A DIFFERENT ISSUE WITH THE STEERING.

TAKATA RECALL. "RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE" HAS BEEN THERE FOR HALF YEAR. AM I RISK PEOPLE'S LIFE DRIVING THIS CAR OR WHAT?

TAKATA RECALL..THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ISSUED SINCE 2017 FOR THE DRIVER AIRBAG BUT REMEDY HAS BEEN DONE..THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING..

THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT THE STARTED TO RIP

TAKETA RECALL. I RECEIVED A LETTER ON MARCH, 2019 FROM MERCEDES BENZ, USA TO NOTIFY ME OF THIS RECALL. ON 4/24/19, I CALLED THE CORAL GABLES MERCEDES DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE NOT IN AND THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A LETTER WHEN THE PARTS ARRIVE. AT HTTPS://WWW.MBUSA.COM/MERCEDES/RECALL, THE STATUS INDICATES THAT THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT IN. SINCE THIS IS A DEFECT THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, HOW CAN IT TAKE MONTHS FOR THE PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE AND FOR MY VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED?

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. DASH BOARD DISPLAYS LEFT AIRBAG MALFUNCTION, HORN NO LONGER WORKS, DISPLAY CAN NOT BE CLEARED. STEERING MAKE LOTS OF OF CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNED ON EITHER DIRECTION. TOOK THE CAR TO THE MERCEDES DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE INITIAL RESPONSE WAS THAT THE STEERING MODULE FAILED AND MY ASSESSMENT WAS IT IS PROBABLY DUE TO RECALL NO GROUND WIRE RECALL NUMBER 17V627000.. UPON FURTHER INQUIRY THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE STEERING MODULE BROKE AND CAME APART. I SUSPECT THIS EITHER DUE TO DEFECTIVE STEERING MODULE OR RECALL # 17V252000 STEERING BOLT. I HAD COMMUNICATED THIS ISSUE TO MBUSA VIA EMAILS AND SEVERAL PHONE CALLS. THEY STILL HAVEN'T AGREED TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. AFTER SEVERAL CALLS TO THE DEALER, THEY FINALLY SHARED THE PICTURE OF THE STEERING MODULE AS YOU CAN SEE IT ATTACHED. OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE SEE PICTURE OF INSTALLED AND NEW MODULE

IN JUNE OF 2018 WE HAD TO HAVE CAM SHAFT WORK DONE ON OUR CAR WHICH WAS SLIGHTLY OVER THE MANUFACTURE WARRANTY. THIS TOOK TWO TRIPS TO THE SHOP AND ABOUT $10,000 IN REPAIRS BECAUSE THE ONE SIDE FAILED THEN WITHIN A FEW WEEKS THE OTHER SIDE FAILED. I HAVE READ ON THE WEB MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND IT BEGINS RIGHT AFTER THE WARRANTY GOES OUT. NOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE TIMING CHAIN WHICH I READ SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED WHEN THE CAM SHAFT WORK WAS DONE. ALL THESE ISSUES WITH THE SAME MODEL AND THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL. MERCEDES TOLD US IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE C250 AND IT WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO BE DONE AGAIN AFTER ANOTHER 50,000 MILES. I DON'T UNDERSTAND IF THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE WHY THEY HAVE NOT CORRECTED IT. IT COSTS ABOUT $5000 EACH TIME!

CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON THE COURTNEY CAMPBELL CAUSEWAY HIGHWAY, ON A STRAIGHTAWAY, THAT CONNECTS CLEARWATER TO TAMPA, FLORIDA. SUDDENLY THE (CLOSED) SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED, CAUSING A VERY LOUD NOISE AND SHATTERED GLASS TO FALL DOWN INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. MY WIFE, WHO WAS DRIVING MANAGED TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR AND PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. GIVEN THE CAR'S SPEED AND SURROUNDING TRAFFIC (MORNING RUSH HOUR) IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT THE SUNROOF EXPLOSION DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE POLICE WERE CALLED AND ARRIVED ON SCENE. NO POLICE REPORT WAS FILED, AS THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT AND NO INJURY. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO MERCEDES BENZ OF TAMPA BAY. THEY TOOK PICTURES AND GAVE US A LOANER CAR AND SAID THAT THEY WOULD MAKE A DETERMINATION AS TO WHO WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 5/1/2019 AT ROUGHLY 7:45 AM. IT WAS NOT UNTIL FRIDAY, 5/3/2019 THAT WE HEARD FROM THE SERVICE CONSULTANT, INDICATING THAT THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEREFORE THE REPAIR WAS OUR RESPONSIBILITY. IT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP OVER 2.5 DAYS TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION ... SEEMS LIKE THAT DETERMINATION COULD HAVE BEEN MADE IN ABOUT 5 MINUTES. COULD IT BE THAT MERCEDES BENZ USA WAS INVOLVED IN EVALUATING THE RESULTING LIABILITY IF THEY WERE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY? GIVEN THAT THERE WAS NO IDENTIFIABLE CAUSE FOR THE EXPLODING SUNROOF, IT IS EVIDENT TO ME THAT IT'S A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT THAT COULD EASILY HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, AND YET MERCEDES BENZ ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY. A COST TO REPAIR/REPLACE THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS PROVIDED VERBALLY (OVER $1,700.00). THIS SPONTANEOUS EXPLOSION OF A SUNROOF IS APPARENTLY SOMETHING THAT HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST WITH MERCEDES BENZ, AS WELL AS OTHER CAR MANUFACTURERS. THIS COULD HAVE A CATASTROPHIC OUTCOME ... ANY TIME IT HAPPENS.

TAKATA RECALL IT IS TAKING TOO LONG FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THIS RECALL. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR A YEAR NOW, AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

I SPECIFICALLY CHECKED FOR ANY VEHICLE RECALLS WHEN PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MORE THAN I WANTED TO SPEND, I WANTED A CAR THAT WOULD NOT HAVE A TAKADA AIRBAG RECALL BECAUSE THE LINCOLN MKZ I PREVIOUSLY OWNED HAD THE TAKADA AIRBAG RECALL AND THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION. I WAS TERRIFIED WHEN MY DAUGHTER TOTALED THE MKZ AND I SPECIFICALLY WANTED TO PURCHASE A VEHICLE WITH NO AIRBAG RECALL. TODAY 02/25/2019 I WAS INFORMED FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT THE MERCEDES BENZ I HAD PURCHASED HAD A TAKEDA AIRBAG RECALL. THAT RECALL GOES BACK TO 01/1990! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE VIN # SEARCH STATED THIS VEHICLE HAD NO RECALLS WHEN I PURCHASED IT, THAT INFORMATION SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRANSPARENT AND DISCLOSED. THIS SHOULD BE A VIOLATION OF MY RIGHT, ESPECIALLY SINCE I SPECIFIED THAT I DID NOT WANT A VEHICLE WITH AN AIRBAG RECALL. NOW I AM IN DEBT FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS A SERIOUS RECALL WITH NO RESOLUTION. AGAIN FEARFUL AND STRESSED BECAUSE IT WAS A GIFT FOR MY DAUGHTER. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.

TAKATA AIRBAGS MERCEDES DEALERS CONTINUE TO SALE VEHICLES LIKE THEY SOLD ME THE CAR WITH RECALL. THIS IS THE SECOND RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME IT TOOK THEM 5 MONTHS TO ADD GROUNDING TO MY STEERING COLUMN. RELATED TO AIR BAGS. NOW THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS BAD . 19 DEATHS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED DO TO AIR BAG FAILURE. WHEN IS ENOUGH. YOU GUYS NEED TO PUT A STOP TO THIS CRIME.

THERE HAVE BEEN TWO RECALLS ON MY CAR THAT ARE SAID TO BE DANGEROUS AND EVEN DEADLY, YET MERCEDES HAS NOT HAD PARTS TO FIX MY CAR TO A SAFE CONDITION FOR MONTHS AND STATE IT WILL YEARS BEFORE THEY WILL HAVE THE PARTS (2020). THIS IS AN UNREASONABLY DANGEROUS SITUATION THEY HAVE PLACED ME IN AS A PAYING CUSTOMER AND IS A BREACH OF ACCEPTABLE STANDARDS. TWO RECALLS ARE CURRENTLY THREATENING MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF ANY PASSENGER WHEN THE CAR IS UTILIZED, A SHORT IN THE STEERING COLUMN CAN CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO BLOW AT ANY TIME AND A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE CAN SEND SHRAPNEL FLYING THAT IS REPORTED TO BE A POSSIBLE CAUSE OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. MERCEDES ONLY APOLOGIZES CLAIMING THEY HAVE NO PARTS AND NO WAY TO MAKE MY CAR SAFER BY DISABLING MECHANISMS FROM BOTH RECALLS TO MAKE MY CAR SAFER.

TAKATA RECALL. OUR COMPLAINT IS REGARDING THE UNREASONABLE DELAY IN PROVIDING US WITH A GOOD REPLACEMENT PART. BECAUSE OF THE RECALL WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO USE THE CAR OR RISK SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH IF THE AIRBAG SHOULD DEPLOY AND EXPLODE. IN THE MEANTIME WE HAVE TO FIND ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION, CONTINUE MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE CAR, AND ARE UNABLE TO SELL IT. SHOULD WE DECIDE TO USE IT AND GET INJURED BY THE AIRBAG WE WILL HAVE NO REMEDY AT LAW BECAUSE WE THEY WILL CONSIDER THAT ASSUMED THE RISK BY USING IT EVEN WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE RECALL. WE WANTED OUR REPLACEMENT PART MONTHS AGO AND NOW ITS BEEN JUST TOO LONG. OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME RECALL HAVE HAD REPLACEMENTS ALREADY. MERCEDES BENZ IS NOT ACTING FAST ENOUGH AND THIS DELAY CAN ONLY CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS FOR OUR SOCIETY AS A WHOLE AS SOME PEOPLE MAY CONTINUE TO USE THEIR CARS DESPITE THEW RECALL. WE RECEIVED OUR NOTICE IN FEBRUARY OF 2018. TO THE QUESTION BELOW REGARDING "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" I USED THE DATE OF THE RECALL NOTICE.

I WAS STOPPED IN FRONT OF MY GARAGE (WAITING FOR THE DOOR TO GO UP). WHEN I LIGHTLY PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL TO PULL IN, THE ENGINE ROARED AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LEAPED FORWARD AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED, GOING THRU MY DETACHED GARAGE WALL. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK AND I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO STOP. I HAVE PULLED INTO THIS GARAGE THOUSANDS OF TIMES AND KNEW THIS WAS THE CAR.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION IN OCTOBER 2017 TK HOLDINGS INC.'S CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY. THIS WAS THE FIRST NOTIFICATION THAT I RECEIVED THAT MY 2014 MERCEDES C300 HAD A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER NEVER PROVIDED ONE. I LOOKED UP ON-LINE REGARDING THE RECALL AND DISCOVERED MY CAR IS AFFECTED. I HAD SCHEDULED SERVICES AT THE DENVER MERCEDES DEALERSHIP ON 12/28/17 AND TOOK IN THE DOCUMENTATION I HAD RECEIVED/DISCOVERED ON-LINE AND ASKED MY SERVICE REP ABOUT IT. HE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO GO ON-LINE AND REGISTER. THAT WAS IT. IF MY CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A SAFETY REASON I CERTAINLY DESERVE MORE OF AN EXPLANATION THAN BEING TOLD TO GO REGISTER ON-LINE. WHEN WILL THE DEFECT BE RECTIFIED AND WHEN WILL THE MANUFACTURER/DEALER CORRECT THE DEFECT SO THAT I AM NOT IN DANGER?

STEERING WHEEL SPRING GROUNDING PROBLEM CAN ACCIDENTALLY DEPLOY AIRBAG. RECALLED IN OCT 2017 BUT I'M TOLD PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MAY 2018. THIS IS AN UNREASONABLY LONG TIME. I WENT TO TRADE-IN THIS CAR TO PURCHASE A NEW ONE AND WAS TOLD THAT NO DEALER CAN SELL A CAR WITH A PENDING SAFETY RECALL EXCEPT "AS IS" THROUGH AN AUTO AUCTION, WHICH LOWERS THE VALUE OF MY CAR BY OVER $2,000 VERSUS A NORMAL DEALER TRADE. HOW DO I RECOVER THIS LOSS WITHOUT SUING MERCEDES? ARE THERE ANY GOVERNMENT REMEDIES OTHER THAN PRIVATE LAWSUIT?

TAKATA RECALL: TO DATE NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. HOWEVER, MY AUTO IS LISTED IN THE AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE AS HAVING DEFECTIVE GROUNDING IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHICH COULD LEAD TO A PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG.

TAKATA RECALL: MY MERCEDES DEALER CANNOT REPAIR OR REPLACE THE AIR BAG, CAUSING ME TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE AND RISK PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

I CALLED MY COMPANY THEY SAID WE DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS

TAKATA RECALL MERCEDES HAS OPEN RECALL ON A GROUND WIRE THAT MAY MALFUNCTION CAUSING AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO FIX OFFERED

I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE EARLIER THIS YEAR REGARDING MY AIRBAG RECALL AND STILL NO DEALER CAN TELL ME WHEN THE REPLACEMENT WILL BE IN. JUST YESTERDAY 10/26/2017 I RECEIVED A MAILER NOTICE THAT TK HOLDINGS HAS FILED FOR CHAPTER 11. HOW DO I GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED?

THERE IS A RECALL ON MY C-250 CONCERNING THE TAKATA AS WELL AS THE STEERING COLUMM WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD CAUSE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY AT ANY TIME. HOWEVER, WHEN I CALLED MERCEDES THEY SAID TO WAIT UNTIL THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON AND STOP IMMEDIATELY CALL FOR A TOW AND THEY WOULD BRING IT IN AND COULD TAKE QUITE SOME TIME TO GET PARTS AND REPAIR. IN MY UNDERSTANDING IF THE AIR BAG SHOULD DEPLOY DOING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY IT WOULD ENDANGER MANY LIVES. NOT SURE I CAM COMFORTABLE WITH THE ANSWERS I GOT FROM MERCEDES. WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT.

TAKATA RECALL NOTICE RECEIVED IN THE MAIL. I CONFIRMED MY CAR WAS INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL VIA WWWAIRBAGRECALL.COM AND CALLED PARK PLACE MERCEDES IN GRAPEVINE, TX. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE INSISTED MY CAR WAS NOT RECALLED. SHE WAS RUDE AND JUST KEPT SAYING IT WAS NOT RECALLED. BTW, THIS HAPPENED OCTOBER 25, 2017. THE DROP DOWN BELOW WOULD ONLY LET ME ENTER OCTOBER 24 OR BEFORE.

I WAS DRIVING ON GLADES ROAD, BOCA RATON, FL. I HEARD A LOUD NOISE, SAW SMOKE AND LOST MY POWER STEERING. I MANAGED TO PULL INTO TOWN CENTER MALL, GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND SAW THAT THE CAR WAS ON FIRE. THE BOCA RATON POLICE CAME, #5 FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME. THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT AND THE CAR WAS TOWED TO MERCEDES OF DELRAY.

STATIONARY VEHICLE'S DOOR LATCH STOPPED WORKING WHILE TRYING TO EXIT THE CAR. THE LATCH IS LOOSELY MOVING AROUND WITH NO CONNECTION TO THE DOOR LOCK WHATSOEVER.

I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, GOT OFF ONTO A SIDE ROAD AND WHEN APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT WHILE BRAKING: MY CAR COMPLETELY DIED (WHILE IN DRIVE). THE MOTOR SHUT OFF, THE ELECTRICAL DASH SYSTEM LIGHTS ALL WENT OFF AND THE HAZARD TRIANGLE SYSTEM CAME ON (WITH THE SYMBOL OF AN EXCLAMATION MARK(!) INSIDE THE TRIANGLE). AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE AND A HALF, I PUT IT IN PARK, AND IT RESTARTED. SCARY! I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS.

WHEN THE OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE IS COVERED WITH SNOW OR ICE IT WILL NOT ALLOW OUTSIDE AIR INTO THE HVAC SYSTEM. THIS CAUSES THE FRONT WINDOW DEFROSTER TO NOT BE ABLE TO BLOW AIR ON THE WINDSHIELD TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW ON BEHALF OF MERCEDES BENZ. IF HOT WATER IS POURED OVER THE OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE SCREEN THE BLOWER WILL OPERATE PROPERLY, BLOWING HOT AIR TO DEFROST THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. ONLY HAPPENS IF THE CAR IS OUTSIDE WITH SNOW OR ICE BUILDUP TO BLOCK AIRFLOW INTO THE HVAC SYSTEM. DEFROSTER WILL WORK PROPERLY IF NO SNOW OR ICE IS COVERING THE AREA.

THOUGH I APPEAR TO HAVE MANAGED ONLY MINIMAL INJURY IN THE RANDOM MALFUNCTIONING DEPLOYMENT OF MY STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG WITHOUT BEING INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OR COLLISION, I WAS EXTREMELY LUCKY MY CAR'S AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY WHILE I WAS DRIVING 50, 60 OR 70 MPH. I WAS ACTUALLY PARKED WHEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. KEYS WERE IN THE IGNITION AS WELL. EVEN IF THE CAR IS REPAIRED, IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND EVEN LEAD TO FATALITIES OF MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHER ADJACENT VEHICLES' PASSENGERS ON THE ROAD. MY WIFE PERSONALLY DOESN'T WANT TO RIDE IN THAT CAR KNOWING THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. I DID A LITTLE INVESTIGATING AND I FOUND THAT MERCEDES-BENZ HAS A RECENT HISTORY OF THESE ISSUES. PLEASE SEE ARTICLE FROM NY TIMES BELOW. THE MB DEALERSHIP IS STILL TESTING MY CAR TO FIGURE THINGS OUT BUT MY MAJOR CONCERN IS WITH THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, MY FAMILY, OTHER DRIVERS, AND OTHER C 250 OWNERS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS STILL NOT TAKEN A STANCE SO THIS IS NOT SO MUCH A COMPLAINT AS IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN WHICH SHOULD LEAD TO A RECALL. THANK YOU.

I WAS EXITING THE INTERSTATE AND MAKING A L TURN ONTO ANOTHER HIGHWAY. AS I AM IN THE TURN I HEAR A LOUD POP AND SEE THAT MY SUNROOF HAS SHATTERED. IT REMAINED INTACT AND DID NOT SHOWER ME WITH GLASS BUT IT IS CRACKED AND BOWED IT ON ALL CORNERS AND IS BOWED UP IN THE CENTER OF THE GLASS.

AT FIRST THE CAR WOULD HAVE A LIGHT TICKING OR KNOCKING NOISE AFTER A 15-20 MINUTE RUN ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. LAST WEEK, FRIDAY EVENING, I STARTED SMELLING SMOKE SOMETHING LIKE PLASTIC, ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU SEARCH FOR THE SOURCE. IT SEEM AS THOUGHT THE SMOKEY SMELL IS COMING FROM THE INSIDE BUT AFTER OPENING THE DRIVERSIDE DOOR THE BURNING SMELL IS COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. ON YESTERDAY, MONDAY, FOUR DAYS SINCE I FIRST SMELL OF SMOKE, WHICH IS CONSISTENT NOW AND LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC WHO SAID RUNNING OVER A PLASTIC BAG IS THE POSSIBLE PROBLEM. SOUNDED LOGICAL UNTIL A FEW HOURS LATER AFTER A 25 MILE HIGHWAY RUN AT 70+MPH THE CAR WAS SHAKING AND STUGGLING TO STAY ON. THE SMOKEY SMELL WAS ELEVATED AND THE POWERTRAIN LIGHT WAS ON. CALLED THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME TO PULL OVER, WAIT AND RESTART THE CAR. NOW I'M AFAID TO DRIVE THE CAR WHICH IS SCHEDULED FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TODAY, TUESDAY, MAY 17, 2016. WHERE THERE'S SMOKE THERE'S FIRE,

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY AND THE TRUNK WAS OPENED WHEN THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE WINDOW WAS NOT STRUCK. THIS OCCURRED AFTER A 200 MILE HIGHWAY TRIP WITH NO ISSUES. OBVIOUSLY, IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFICULT SITUATION.

RANDOM ENGINE STALL INVOLVING TURBO AND INTERCOOLER: WE PURCHASED THIS 2014 C250 WITH ROUGHLY 8,000 MILES FROM NEARBY MB DEALER. WE HAVE ENJOYED THE CAR IMMENSELY, EXCEPTION THIS VERY SERIOUS "DEFECT" WITH THE ENGINE. OBSERVED ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, THIS PROBLEM IS VERY SERIOUS AND COULD LEAD TO POTENTIAL COLLISION WHILE PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE, BECAUSE THE ENGINE "STALLS" UNDER INTENSE ACCELERATION RANDOMLY, LEAVING ONLY ONE CYLINDER WORKING. WITH THIS ONE REMAINING CYLINDER, THE CAR CAN BARELY BE OPERATED, SHAKING ETC., BUT CAN BE MANEUVERED OFF THE ROAD IF POSSIBLE IN TRAFFIC, SHUT OFF, AND RE-STARTED WITHOUT ANY AFTER-AFFECTS. WE TOOK TO THE DEALER TWICE, AND BOTH TIMES THE MB DEALER ADMITS THERE IS A VERY REAL PROBLEM WITH, ALLEGEDLY, THE "INTERCOOLER," AND THAT "ALL C250 ENGINES HAVE THIS SAME POTENTIAL PROBLEM," AND FURTHERMORE, MERCEDES DOES NOT CURRENTLY HAVE A SOLUTION OR FIX, BUT IS WORKING ON IT. NOTE: IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS SINCE I REPORTED MY INITIAL PROBLEM AND HAD IT RECORDED (FILED AT THE DEALER). THE CAR COMPUTER DOES INDICATE THE PROBLEM EXISTS, AND RECORDS EACH INCIDENT. PROBLEM: MB DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION CURRENTLY. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO HAVE THE CAR UNDER FULL ACCELERATION IN SPORT MODE, AND THEN THE CAR SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING SHUTS DOWN ("COMPUTER GENERATED STALL"). I WAS FORTUNATE TO BE GOING VERY FAST MERGING ONTO INTERSTATE TRAFFIC, THEN ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD BEFORE I WAS REAR-ENDED. THIS SAME SCENARIO HAS OCCURRED ON TWO OTHER OCCASIONS WITHOUT ANY ACCIDENT, AND WHILE MOTOR WAS NOT EVEN HEAVILY STRESSED AS THE INITIAL INCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 MERCEDES BENZ C250. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, A CRASH WAS ATTEMPTED TO BE AVOIDED CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO A TREE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED FACE LACERATIONS AND THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED A SHOULDER INJURY THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MERCEDES BENZ C250. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT NOTICED A LEAK COMING FROM THE RADIATOR AND THE TRANSMISSION. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT NOTICED FUEL FUMES COMING FROM THE OIL PAN AND DIP STICK IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED AS INTENDED. IN ADDITION, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO FIND ANY LEAKS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

I LEASED MY VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER OF 2013. THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN TO AND FROM WORK AND IN THE BEGINNING I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. A FEW MONTHS AGO I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT 70 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE VEHILE WOULD VIOLENTLY SHAKE WHE TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I MANGED TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE FOR ABOUT ANOTHER 30 MINUTES AND MADE IT TO THE DEALER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF BUT ONCE THEY RESTARTED IT THE CAR RAN FINE. SINCE THEN THEN CAR WILL RANDOMLY LOOSE POWER ALL OF A SUDDEN IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 3 OR 4 TIMES AND THEY KEEP IT FOR A WEEK AND THEN GIVE IT BACK AND SAY THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO RECREATE THE ISSUE. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT ONCE SO FAR AND WHEN I LET MY BROTHER USE THE CAR HE WAS ALMOST HIT WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN BECAUSE OF THE RANDOM POWER LOSS. I HAVE CONTACTED MBUSA AND SPOKE WITH SOMEONE NAMED JUAN. I CONTINUED TO CALL HIM ANS TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER EVERYTIME IT HAPPENED EXPRESSING MY CONCERNS ABIUT THE CAR AS WELL AS SAFETY. JUAN INTIALLLY ACTED AS IF HE CARED BUT THAT WAS SHOR LIVED AS HE FINALLY CALLED BACK ON 10/2/15 AND EXPLAINED THAT HIS MANAGERS AND MBUSA WERE UNABLE TO CREATE THE ISSUE AT THE DEALER LEVEL SO THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO AT THIS POINT... AT THAT POINT I REALIZED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT MBUSA WILL DO FOR ME AND THAT I WILL CONTINUE TO FORCED TO DRIVE AND PAY FOR A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT A 2014 C250 MERCEDES WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES DOT: HW4TNXH61413 IN NOVEMBER OF 2013. TWO OF THE FOUR TIRES CONTINUE TO LOSE TIRE PRESSURE AND HAVE DEVELOPED SIDE WALL BUBBLES. THE CAR IS DRIVEN DAILY AND HAS 20,000 MILES ON IT.

LEASED OUR MERCEDES AND SHORTLY AFTERWARDS WE STARTED EXPERIENCING HESITATION, LAGGING AND EVEN STALLING OF THE VEHICLE AS WE TRIED TO ACCELERATE. TWICE THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED AS WE PULLED INTO TRAFFIC, NARROWLY ESCAPING POSSIBLE INJURY AND DAMAGING SEVERAL CARS. HESITATION HAS OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING, (PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR AND THE ENGINE DOES NOT RESPOND BY EVIDENCE OF NO RPM INCREASE). AGAIN, THIS HAS OCCURED NUMEROUS TIMES. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE BACK TO MERCEDES FOUR TIMES, FOR A TOTAL OF 39 DAYS!!!! AND STILL TO THIS DAY, THE VEHICLE STILL HAS THE ISSUE, WHILE MERCEDES CLAIMS THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE GIVEN US EVERY EXCUSE IN THE BOOK OF WHY NO PROBLEM EXISTS, EVEN AFTER THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE CAR HAS A 6 SECOND DELAY WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!! TWO DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS HAVE DROVE THE VEHICLE AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME HESITATION PROBLEM. THE CAR IN OUR EYES IS A HAZARD TO THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. WE ARE PAYING FOR A CAR THAT IS DANGEROUS AND HAS THE HIGH PROBABILITY OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH CATASTROPHIC RESULTS...........

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO THE CONTINENTAL CONTI PRO CONTACT TIRES BEING DEFECTIVE. I HAVE 2 TIRES THAT WERE ON MY CPO 2014 MERCEDES BENZ THAT I PURCHASED A FEW MONTHS AGO THAT HAVE DEVELOPED BUBBLES IN THE SIDEWALL FROM NO IMPACT. I PUT LESS THAN 9,000 MILES BEFORE THE DEFECT SURFACED. MY DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THEY AREN'T WARRANTED OR DEFECTIVE? THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AND A CAR THAT MY FAMILY DRIVES DAILY. I HAVE STARTED CONTACT DIRECTLY WITH CONTINENTAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MERCEDES BENZ C250. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, A WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND BECAME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND WAS TOWED BY THE DEALER, WHO WAS NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MERCEDES BENZ C300. WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION AND THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TRAFFIC LIGHT POLE. THE CONTACT SUFFERED LACERATIONS TO THE HEAD, MUSCLE DAMAGE TO THE LEGS, AND A FRACTURE ON THE EYE SOCKET. THE CONTACT RECEIVED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S INSURANCE COMPANY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-10 EASTBOUND AT APPROXIMATELY MILE MARKER 180 TO 182, WHEN I MADE A LANE CHANGE TO LET A FASTER MOVING VEHICLE PASS ME. I WENT FROM THE LEFT TO RIGHT LANE WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 70 OR 75 MPH, (SPEED LIMIT ON I-10 IS 75 MPH). UPON ENTERING THE RIGHT LANE I SAW A TRACTOR TRAILER BRAKE LIGHTS, AND I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKE IN MY C 250, AND IT CAUSED THE CAR WHEELS TO LOCKED UP, WHICH ALSO CAUSED THE CAR TO SKID, AND SWERVE THE BACK END. THE C 250 DID SLOW DOWN SOME, BUT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AFTER THE C 250 IMPACTED THE REAR BUMPER OF THE TRAILER ATTACHED ON THE TRACTOR TRAILER TRUCK. THE C 250 SLIDE APPROXIMATELY 200 FEET, THERE WERE TIRE TRACKS ON THE PAVEMENT, WHICH SHOWS THE TIRES LOCKED UP. THE REAR ENDED OF THE CAR ALSO SWERVED, AND IT DIDN'T SEEM LIKE THE C 250 WAS SLOWING DOWN, ONCE THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THERE WAS ALSO SOME SKIPPING OF THE TIRES. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED BUT WAS LATE, AND CAUSED ME TO IMPACT THE WINDSHIELD WITH MY HEAD. THERE IS ALSO A HOLE IN THE AIRBAG THAT IS BIGGER THEN A SILVER DOLLAR, WHICH SHOWS SIGN OF TEARING AND FRAYING. THE SEAT-BELT DETACHED AT IMPACT WHICH FORCED ME FORWARD AND DIDN'T RESTRAIN ME FROM ME HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL AND WINDSHIELD. *TR

DRIVING ON A FOUR-LANE STREET (TWO LANES ON EACH SIDE) WITH MY TWO KIDS. THE 2014 C250 HAD A MALFUNCTION WITH THE ELECTRIC STEERING: AUTOMATICALLY JERKING THE CAR TO THE RIGHT. I LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR AND HIT THE CURB. IT FELT LIKE WE WENT AIRBORNE. I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT TO TRY TO STABILIZE THE CAR, QUICKLY REALIZING THERE WAS TRUCK TO THE LEFT I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID HITTING THE TRUCK. THIS CAUSED ME TO HIT THE CURB AGAIN. IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST IT WAS HARD TO STABILIZE THE CAR. MERCEDES-BENZ (EXPRESSED AS MBUSA) HAD MY CAR FOR OVER A MONTH. IN THEIR INCIDENT QUESTIONNAIRE THEY ASKED TO GRANT PERMISSION TO IMAGE THE DATA CONTAINED IN THE VEHICLE'S EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR). I SENT THE QUESTIONNAIRE TO MY INSURANCE, AND WE DIDN'T NOT GRANT MBUSA PERMISSION AS THE LESSEE. MBUSA BROKE THE LAW AND WENT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION AND IMAGED THE DATA. THAN CAME BACK AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE DAMAGE, AS THE EDR STATED THAT I HIT THE CURB. MBUSA EXPRESSED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THEIR MALFUNCTION. I ASKED FOR A COPY OF THE RECORDED CONVERSATION AND I WANT THE REPORT. IT WAS EXPRESSED BY MBUSA THAT I WOULD HAVE TO GET A COURT SUBPOENA FOR THEM TO GIVE ME THE INFORMATION. I CALLED A ATTORNEY AND THIS IS AGAINST THE LAW; AND IS ALL TACTICS/STRATEGIES ON MBUSA PART TO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY BECAUSE THEY WOULD BY LAW HAVE TO REPORT IT TO NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA). ALL I WANTED WAS TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE, AND FOR MBUSA TO TAKE THE CAR BACK AS IT WAS AROUND 3 MONTHS OLD WHEN THE ACCIDENT ACCUSED. IF I FIGHT THIS: JUST TO GET SOMEONE TO REVIEW THE EDR WILL COST AROUND $10,000. GREAT BUSINESS STRATEGY MBUSA IN KEEPING YOUR CUSTOMERS SAFE UNTIL SOMEONE DIES BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF HUMILITY! *TR

R/F TIRE BUBBLE IN SIDEWALL. AT 1959 MILES A BUBBLE APPEARED IN THE R/F TIRE. I DISCOVERED THE BUBBLE WHILE WASHING THE CAR . THIS APPEARED ABOUT TWO MONTH AFTER PURCHASE. AUGUST 19 20014 THE DEALER RELUNCTANTLY REPLACE THE TIRE. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY BUBBLES SINCE THAT DATE. I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THE CONTINENTAL TIRES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 MERCEDES BENZ C300. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AFTER THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRONIC MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

RE: CONTINENTAL PROCONTACT (FRONT) 225 45 R17 AND (REAR)245 40 17- ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2014 AT 306 MILES TIRE DISPLAYED BULGE NEXT TO "C" OF CONTINENTAL OF FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. THE CAR WAS SITTING FOR A WEEK NOT BEING DRIVEN WHEN THE BULGE APPEARED. I WAS NOT GOING TO DRIVE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND CHANCE A BLOW OUT ACCIDENT. CAR WAS TOWED TO MB FREEHOLD WHERE THEY TOLD ME I WENT OVER A POTHOLE. I DIDN'T BELIEVE THAT TO BE THE CASE BUT I WAS AT THERE MERCY. TIRE WAS REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME; NOVEMBER 8,2014 THE NEW REPLACED TIRE OF THE SEPTEMBER 11, 2014 EVENT( FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE) HAD A BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING 25 MILES AN HOUR. THE CAR WAS GARAGED FOR APPROX 2 WEEKS AND NOT DRIVEN, THEN FOR 2 DAYS DRIVEN LOCALLY TO DO ERRANDS, THEN DRIVEN ON HIGHWAY AN HOUR TO MY DESTINATION AND AN HOUR BACK WHEN IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AT 25 MILES PER HOUR THE CAR WAS OUT OF CONTROL AND THE REPLACED TIRE BLEW. THE MALFUNCTION LIGHT WENT ON- IT WAS DARK AND I HAD NO CHOICE THEN TO DRIVE MY HOUSE....THE WHEEL WHICH WASN'T SCRAPED BEFORE IS NOW SCRAPED... CAR DOESN'T ACCELERATE BUT JERKS AND JOLTS WHEN TRYING TO PASS OR CHANGE LANES/DANGEROUS ON HIGHWAYS. *TR

I PURCHASED THIS C250 IN DEC 2013, HAVE 3 SIMILAR OCCURRENCE WERE THE ENGINE FAILED TO RESPOND. ONCE COMING OUT OF A LIGHT, AND TWICE ON I-95 BOTH TIMES TRYING TO SWITCH LANES TO GET OUT OF ON COMING TRAFFIC, AND ON BOTH OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL. ONE OF THE INCIDENTS OCCURRED WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. WE WERE LUCKY WERE NOT KILLED BY THE SEMI TRACTOR TRAILERS. AM A RETIRE AIR FORCE FIREFIGHTER AND I HAVE SEEN SOME HORRIBLE STUFF ON THE HIGHWAYS, THANK GOD IT WAS NOT MEANT TO BE THOSE DAYS. I CONTACTED MERCEDES-BENZ USA HQ. ON ALL THESE SAFETY OCCURRENCE BELOW AND ALL [XXX] AT HQ 1 800 367 6372 [XXX] WOULD TELL ME IS THAT VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY.... ON THE LAST TIME IT HAPPEN THEY SAID THE NEW ENGINE HAD BACKFIRED AND THEY WERE GOING THE REPLACE A FUEL PORT OR SOMETHING... IN THIS NEW VEHICLE. ENGINE 3X, NEW BRAKES, ALIGNMENT, DEAD BATTERY, TAN LEATHER TURNING BLUE. THANKS IN ADVANCE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THIS PROBLEM FIRST STARTED 2 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE OF THIS BRAND NEW 2014 MERCEDES C CLASS. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON AND ALARM STARTS DINGING EVEN THOUGH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAS NEVER BEEN APPLIED. THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE RELEASE LEVER. THIS HAS OCCURRED DURING INITIAL START-UP AND WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEIR TECHNICIANS RESPONSE IS " THE C CLASS DOES THAT". AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER THE TECHNICIANS SAID SINCE THEY COULDN'T RECREATE THE PROBLEM, NOTHING MUST BE WRONG. ONCE I DROVE 30 MILES TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT ON AND ALARM DINGING SO THEY COULD WITNESS IT. THE MANAGER AND TECHNICIAN MET ME IN THE GARAGE AND HAD ME PULL THE LEVER; THE PEDAL ACTUALLY MOVED BY ABOUT AN INCH. THE MANAGER AND TECH PRACTICALLY ACCUSED ME OF PARTIALLY APPLYING THE BRAKE (WHICH I TOLD THEM I HAVE NEVER PULLED SINCE OWNING THE CAR). I TOLD THEM THIS MAKES THE SITUATION EVEN MORE SERIOUS BECAUSE THE BRAKE MAY ACTUALLY AUTO-APPLY WHILE DRIVING. STILL, NO CONCERN ABOUT SAFETY, OR RESOLVING THE PROBLEM. THEIR RESOLUTION WAS FOR ME TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN TO TRADE FOR A USED 2013 OR USED 2014 OR PAY TO MOVE INTO THE E CLASS WHICH THEY SAY DOESN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING FOUR DAYS AFTER I LEASED MY BRAND NEW C250 2014 MERCEDES, AND THE CAR DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET. THE COP AND I COULDNT EVEN MOVE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET. I AM WORRIED THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THUS I HAVE BEEN CALLING MERCEDES TO PLEASE REPLACE THE CAR WITH A SAFE ONE. *TR
