2010 MERCEDES-BENZ C300 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND MERCEDES STILL HAS NO SOLUTION TO THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECAL. THAT IS RIDICULOUS. WHAT CAN BE DONE?

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE I LEARNED ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL. TO DATE, ALL I HAVE ARE LETTERS SAYING THAT MY DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS ARE UNDER RECALL, BUT THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THIS DOES NOT FEEL SAFE TO ME. WHEN CAN THIS RECALL BE DONE?

PREVIOUSLY RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN 2014. TAIL LIGHT BULB HOLDERS OR WIRING HARNESS CATCHING FIRE.

TAKATA FRONTAL AIRBAG AND ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PART THAT I HAD RECEIVED AN ALERT ABOUT OVER A YEAR AGO, BUT TILL TODAY'S DATE HAS NOT BEEN REMEDIED. AS PART IS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM MBUSA 6-8 MONTHS AGO, AND HAVE GOTTEN NO RESPONSE FROM MY LOCAL DEALER WHO ONLY KNOWS THAT THIS RECALL, TO HIS KNOWLEDGE, IS ON HOLD, AND NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE? IF A CAR IS IN A CRASH AND THE AIRBAG INFLATOR DEPLOYS, DOES IT NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE? I AM CONCERNED, AND HAVE NO FAITH IN THE CORPORATE LOBBYISTS AND FAT CATS THAT CUT CORNERS FOR PROFITS. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED, BECAUSE I AM HANDICAPPED, AND HAVE AN EXTREMELY BAD BACK, AND WORRY THAT INCORRECT DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG WOULD FURTHER DAMAGE MY SPINE, AND CAUSE ME TO GO TO A WHEELCHAIR FROM MY CANE, OR WORSEN THE NUMBNESS AND MY INABILITY TO GET AROUND. THIS SHOULD BE YOUR CONCERN AS WELL, BECAUSE I HAVE CONTACTED AN ATTORNEY WHO IS WILLING TO TAKE MY CASE FOR A PERCENTAGE OF THE SETTLEMENT, IF WE DECIDE TO SETTLE, OR ACCEPT THE COURT MANDATED FEE HE WOULD BE ENTITLED TO. MY ENTIRE LUMBAR AND SACRAL SPINE ARE COMPROMISED BYE DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE, SCOLIOSIS, MULTIPLE SPINAL SENOSES AND MORE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ C300. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, A HIGH-PITCHED NOISE WAS HEARD FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT NOTICED A LOT OF POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKING. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO MAKE TURN, THE NOISE BECAME LOUDER AND THE STEERING LOST POWER. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

MY 2010 MERCEDES C300 HAS A FAULTY ELECTRONIC STEERING LOCK FAIL-WHICH LEFT ME STRANDED SITTING IN THE PARK LOT ABOUT 30 MINUTES FROM HOME. CAR WOULD NOT START I TRIED TO START MY CAR AND NOTHING HAPPENS. WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO ON NOTHING LIGHTS UP, NO CRANK, NO CLICKS, NO WINDOWS AND NO RADIO. I WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK WITH THE REMOTE BUT THAT WAS ABOUT IT. I TRIED JUMPING AND I TRIED BOTH KEYS STILL NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN I TURNED THE KEY. STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED AND GEAR STUCK IN PARK. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE MB DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE STEERING LOCK AND KEY REPLACED AND ENDING COSTING $1,124.00. I HAVE READ THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A WHOLE OF MB'S AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. I MEAN REALLY WE PAY TO HAVE A QUALITY CAR AND SO FAR MY MB HAS HAD A STINKY AC THAT MB COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT HOW FIX, TAILLIGHT RECALL, FOUND OIL LEAKING FROM OIL CENTERFUGE COVER THAT COST $199.62 BUT YET IT STILL LEAKS OIL., CURRENTLY WAITING FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALL FROM APRIL 2016 AND TODAY IS DEC. 2016. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MERCEDES AND WILL NOT BE PURCHASE AGAIN NOR WILL I RECOMMEND TO ANYONE. EVEN THE SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP HAS GONE DOWN. QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NOT WHAT IT USE TO BE.
