“I bought the car from a dealership that was aware of its engine problem and did not notify me or make me aware before they had the enhancing paperwork ready for me to sign a binding agreement on a car they had me believing was mechanically sound/.”
NHTSA complaint #10522453, filed 2013-06, 150,000 miles“10 inch crack in dashboard above the passenger's side airbag. It also has started to crack the wood grain, pretty soon it will be from windshield to glove box. A 2001 car that' has been garaged and well taken care off, and they were saying it was sun damaged. After doing my own investigation on the internet, I found out that there were a lot of people who also had the same problem, and everyone was helpless as to what to do! I am worried that the airbag may not deploy properly in an accident. Why won''t daimler/chrsyler do something. Was it because they could not afford it.”
NHTSA complaint #10195917, filed 2007-07, 39,000 miles“Dashboard cracked. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the mechanic determined that passenger side air bag caused the dashboard to crack. Dashboard along with the air bag were replaced.”
NHTSA complaint #10062910, filed 2004-03, 65,000 miles“2001 300M - all door triming separating, leaving a 1 inch gap in all corners. All of my vehicle door triming has shrunk? This is leaving a gap in the corners allowing outside sound to come in, as if your vehicle windows are open or cracked. I keep my vehicle in the garage and I have no children. How does the door trim shrink? I paid $95.00 to have them re-positioned, not replaced. To re-place all door triming is $200.00 each door. The door triming is poor material and is a defect that you installed, why must new 300M owners pay for this. …”
