“My collision prevention made my 2016 mercedes benz e400 slam on the breaks with no cars around other then the car parked to the side of the road and the cars behind me.”
NHTSA complaint #11289787, filed 2019-12, 55,000 miles“Panoromic roof. Roof makes creaking noise when turning or driving on uneven or rough road. Noise seems to be coming from the reinforcement plate between panoromic roof joint. This is very noticiable, lubing the sunroof track or positon of sunroof(close or open) does not reduce noise or issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11344059, filed 2020-08, 37,423 miles“The car unintentionally accelerates when starting from a stopped position. The engine revs up then the car lurches. This has happened several times when trying to proceed forward and backward. The car was brought in for service but no issues were found and the car returned as was.”
NHTSA complaint #10823038, filed 2016-01, 4,800 miles“I have the similar issue with my sun roof as described by this entry found on your website below: Started developing (April 2021) a rattle in car's roof along with occasional metal popping sound coming from rear of car. Continued to get worse. Then rattle stopped for a while and so did the metal popping sound. Now ( August, 2021)it sounds like there is a bolt loose in the sunroof area and the metal popping sound is really loud and I think coming from roof. …”
NHTSA complaint #11473947, filed 2022-07“The car was in for (Aug 2022) annual safety and emissions state (PA) inspection and normal maintenance. Last performed Aug 2021. I was told that the car failed safety inspection because the Rear SubFrame had rusted through. A hole was present not just surface rust. The car has 58,000 miles and garage kept. The car was just (June 2022) in for all 4 wheel brakes replaced along with 4 tires. There hasn’t been any recall on this and they quoted Repair price of$5,400 and expect me to pay $1,000 towards that replace and repair. My question is clearly this is an inferior part. …”
