Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“While driving and a right turn was made, the steering wheel locked up, which caused the driver to lose control of the vehicle. . After having a third set of motor mounts installed, the consumer was told a heat shield was necessary to protect the motor mount from the exhaust heat. But mercedes never notified the consumer about the need for a heat shield and the vehicle didn't come with a heat shield. Please investigate.”
