INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE ON DOORS, SPECIFICALLY THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, WILL BREAK, AND THE PERSON IS UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER, BUT MERCEDES BENZ COMPANY HAS NOT PUT OUT A RECALL ON THIS. MANY OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH NO RESULTS. THE OWNERS HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS OUT OF POCKET, AND IT IS COSTLY. I FEEL AS IF THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE, BECAUSE IT POSES AN HAZARD OF GETTING OUT THE CAR IF THE CAR IS IN AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE, CATCHES ON FIRE. AND YES, MY DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF MY 2013 C300 IS BROKE, AND HAVE BEEN QUOTED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WILL COST ME $1100 TO REPAIR.
