Mercedes C300 4Matic 2019 model, active brake assist malfunction (not working )

I got my Mercedes C300 4Matic 2019 model car back in 2019 August and since the purchase, I have unfortunately visited the service center more times than I would ideally want and lack of product safety (tires) endangers my life on the road. I'm listing out all the visits for your reference. 10th Feb 2020 (at 3,683 Miles) Left front tire. 23rd Mar 2021 (at 14,002 Miles) Left front, also change Right front to balance the car. 13th Nov 2021 (at 19,984 Miles) Right front tire. 28th Dec 2021 (at 21,084 Miles) Left front tire.

2019 Mercedes C300 sunroof exploded while driving 60 mph on highway.

The automatic trunk lid started to close and hit my head while I was loading groceries into the trunk. It also started to close and hit my wife in the head when she was unloading the groceries about 15 minutes later. This situation was not reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. There was no notice or warning of pending failure. There appeared to be no visible injury to either person except for a short pain in the head.

Dear friends, I have received a safety recall message and contacted to my car dealership. Despite I called few times to different Mercedes my dealership (Mercedes DTLA, Mercedes Corporate office) the recall issue has not been fixed. It has been 3 months since I am calling them and requesting to fix the recall as I am psychologically uncomfortable when I have recalls in my car. Unfortunately, recall on my car has not been fixed and they are not able to give me any answer when this issue will be fixed. Kind regards, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING ENGAGES UNNECESSARILY WHEN DRIVING UNDER CHICAGO'S ELEVATED TRAIN TRACKS AND SIMILAR OVERHEAD STRUCTURES. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN DRIVING ON WABASH AVE IN CHICAGO'S DOWNTOWN LOOP, OR ON LOWER WACKER DRIVE, THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING ENGAGES WHEN THERE IS NO RISK OF A COLLISION, PARADOXICALLY CREATING A DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP IS AWARE THIS HAPPENS IN OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES, AND WHEN I BROUGHT THE ISSUE TO THEIR ATTENTION, SUGGESTED I MERELY CHANGED ROUTES.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT ONTO A HIGHWAY WITH A POSTED LIMIT OF 55 MPH. AS I PULLED OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY THE GAS PEDAL JUST STOPPED WORKING. THE CAR WAS ON BUT IT JUST WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. A VEHICLE COMING FROM MY LEFT AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED HAD TO PUT ON IT'S BRAKES IN ORDER NOT TO STRIKE THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY DOOR. IT CAME WITHIN 2 FEET OF MY VEHICLE. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE I TURNED OFF THE "ECO" BUTTON AND DROVE A COUPLE OF MILES BACK TO MY HOME WITH NO PROBLEMS. NOTE....I HAVE NO IDEA IF THE "ECO" BUTTON HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE MERCEDES DEALER IN FORT WORTH SINCE SATURDAY JANUARY 30TH. THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THEY EXPECT ME TO DO ABOUT IT. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

NOTICED A BULGE ON THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIRE, ON THE SIDE WALL. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER, WITH MINIMAL DRIVING, RUBBER ON SIDE WALL OPENED UP WHERE BULGE WAS AT.

EITHER CONDITION CAN CAUSE A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH". THIS IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH MINE. TAKING BACK TO DEALERSHIP FRIDAY TO BE REPLACED.
