I've owned this vehicle for a few years and don't use it that often. I purchased it as a certified so I thought everything had been checked out. However, not too long ago i took my wife and my son who was home from college out to dinner. When we left and started back to the car, my son was ahead of us and didn't think when he lifted the door handle. The alarm came on and I was still quite some distance from the car. That didn't seem right so when we got home, I walked quite a distance from the locked car and had him try it again. Again the door came open when he lifted the handle and the alarm came on. After resetting it, I locked it again and this time had him try all handles. They all locked except the rear (passenger) door on the driver's side. That convinced me that something was wrong. I took it to the dealer, the same place I purchased it from three years ago and they said the door lock was bad and it would cost me $800 to fix it. I thought that was a little steep and told them it was probably like that when i got it. That didn't mean anything to them. I am thinking of trading the car so I don't want to spend more money on it so I told them to hold off. I was searching for that problem on the Internet and I ran across a recall notice that identifies that same problem on the same door in a number of other model Mercedes, and I thought, that seems like a coincidence. What are the chances of that? The same manufacturer, the same year, the same problem on the same door. Only the model is different. Can someone check to see if there were any problems recorded for the E300 on bulletin 17V816000? It was on Mercedes recall 2018010009 I have not checked to see if the door locks when the doors auto lock above 10 mph because I didn't want a chance for an accident.

The sunroof is leaking when it rains on the front upper left side by the driver. My safety is act risk because of the water coming in the car distracting me from driving and not sure if the water is damaging the electrical system in my car.
