Panel between front windshield and sun/moon roof was vibrating loose as well as the clear coat completely peeling off the piece. The car is only at 57k miles so this should NOT be occurring. That piece felt like it will fly off while driving. Unsafe.

2017 MERCEDES-BENZ C 300- Homosassa, FL
Check engine light came on. Error code indicates a PCV crankcase ventilation valve has malfunctioned. Code is P052E. This is a notorious problem with Mercedes, BMW and other European cars. It should also be considered part of the emissions system. Contacting the MB dealers, I cannot get a clear definition whether it is covered by extended warranties or any warranty whatsoever. They are vague as to "maybe, but not sure". I feel that there should be a recall to fix the defective parts involved with this error code.
