2015 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabrio 2 DR RWD

The rear suspension feels like it’s loose and Mercedes Benz dealership says it’s nothing wrong I almost lost control of the car

Headliner bubble up and coming loose thus creating a safety issue because abstract both front and mostly rear visibility while driving. Have this vehicle bought 2 months ago and have develop this condition, making hard to see and drive thus is a serious driving hazard. Contact Mercedes Benz dealer refuses to address the issue as safety hazard and did not repair or replace headliner at my cost of $1,652 plus labor etc. Vehicle has Vehicle dealer various private warranties but according to them it is a cosmetic issue not a safety one. I strongly disagree with them since I can not see mostly from my rearview window back and even the front window have to hold one the liner to move the vehicle (can not drive while holding the liner) Please advice if any service bulletin of this type of issue are affected.

ORIGINAL CONTINENTAL CONTI PRO CONTACT TIRES (245/40/18) FOR MERCEDES BENZ E350 WITH APPROX. 15,000 MILES ON THEM AND MY TIRE BLEW ON HIGHWAY. AND SIDE RIM OF TIRE HAS BIG CUT.IT WAS AT THE TIME OF TRAFFIC AT 5 PM AND I WAS VERY CLOSE TO HIT SIDEWALL OF HIGHWAY. LAST WEEK AGAIN I DISCOVERED THAT OTHER TWO TIRES CONTINENTAL CONTIPROCONTACT ON SAME CAR HAS A BUBBLE ON THE SIDEWALL. THE BUBBLE IS WITHIN A QUATER TO HALF OF AN INCH TO THE RIM. AFTER A DAY ONE TIRE WAS FLAT AND BIG CUT I SEE AT SAME PLACE WHERE BUBBLE WAS. I CALLED MERCEDEZ BENZ AS MY CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAS HAPPENED BECAUSE OF POTHOLE AND YOU HAVE TO REPLACE ALL THE 4 TIRES. I ONLY DRIVE CAR FOR WORK AND I NEVER HIT POTHOLE IT LOOKS LIKE THERE IS MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH TIRE. I AM SORRY TO SAY THAT EVEN CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY MERCEDES IS NOT DOING ANYTHING AND THERE IS NO RECALL ON TIRE. I HAVE NOTICED MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT BUBBLE ISSUE WITH THE TIRE. CONTINENTAL TIRE SHOULD BE TAKING CARE OF THE TIRE AS IT ONLY HAS 15K MILES

I PURCHASED A PRE-CERTIFIED 2015 MERCEDES-BENZ E350 4MATIC SPORT WITH 19,550 MILES ON 3/9/18. WITHIN THE FIRST 175 MILES DRIVEN I HAVE EXPERIENCED A FLAT TIRE FROM COMPLETE SIDEWALL FAILURE IN ONE TIRE (WHICH WAS A NEWER, NON-ORIGINAL) AND TWO SIDEWALL BUBBLES ON TWO OF THE OTHER ORIGINAL TIRES. THE SIDEWALL FAILURE WAS DUE TO HITTING A SMALL POTHOLE WHILE THE BUBBLES SEEM TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY NORMAL DRIVING. THE TIRES ARE CONTIPROCONTACT 245/40R18 WHICH SEEM TO HAVE COMMON SIDEWALL ISSUES FROM THE COMPLAINTS. FOR SAFETY CONCERNS I HAVE ORDERED MICHELIN PILOT SPORT A/S 3+, SO WILL BE OUT AROUND $1,000 (PLUS THE $255 COST OF REPLACING THE FIRST BLOWN CONTIPROCONTACT, WHICH HAS ABOUT 50 MILES ON IT, BUT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING ON IT).

COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM (PRESAFE PLUS) FAILED TO WARN (AS ADVERTISED BY MBUSA) OF AN IMMINENT REAR END COLLISION ON AN EXPRESSWAY. THE SYSTEM IS SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE AN AUDIBLE WARNING SIGNAL BASED ON THE RATE OF CHANGE OF THE CLOSING DISTANCE BETWEEN MB AND A VEHICLE IN FRONT. MOREOVER, IF THE DRIVER IGNORES THE WARNING SIGNAL, THE MB IS SUPPOSED TO APPLY BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY. NEITHER OF THESE TWO EVENTS TOOK PLACE, RESULTING IN A REAR END COLLISION. THE HIGHWAY BEFORE AND AT THE POINT OF COLLISION WAS STRAIGHT WITH NO CURVES. AFTER COLLISION DAMAGE REPAIR BY AN MB DEALERSHIP AND ASSURANCE FROM THE DEALER THAT THE SAFETY SYSTEMS WERE OPERATIONAL, I TESTED THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES BY DRIVING THE MB INTO A VARIETY OF LARGE BOXES THE FRONTS OF WHICH WERE COVERED WITH METALLIC FOIL. ALL TESTS FAILED TO PROVIDE BOTH AN AUDIBLE WARNING AS WELL AS AUTOMATIC BRAKING (SEE WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=6_D9A_AXAV4 FOR ONE EXAMPLE OF TEST). MBUSA ADVERTISING IN 2015 TOUTED THESE SAFETY FEATURES ON TV AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS. WHAT WAS MISSING FROM THESE INFOMERCIALS IS INFORMATION ON THE RELIABILITY OF THESE "SAFETY" SYSTEMS (I.E., WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY THAT THE SYSTEM WILL FUNCTION AS ADVERTISED). I SUSPECT THAT THIS PROBABILITY IS QUITE LOW, AND IF SO, THIS FACT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROVIDED TO THE CONSUMER. ALSO, IF MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE ACTUAL ACCIDENT AND MY ADDITIONAL TESTING IS ANY INDICATION OF RELIABILITY, MERC3DES BENZ VEHICLES INCORPORATING PRESAFE PLUS SHOULD BE SUBJECTED TO A NHTSA RECALL.
