2014 MERCEDES-BENZ E350 Complaints

2ND RIM TO CRACK UNDER NORMAL USE [IN FL, NOT THE NORTH EAST WITH POTHOLES] MERCEDES MECHANIC TOLD US THAT THEY NEVER SHOULD HAVE MOUNTED LOW PROFILE TIRES ON THIS RIM. THE TIRES DO NOT OFFER ENOUGH PROTECTION FOR THE RIM FROM NORMAL DRIVING HAZARDS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM AS A CRACKED RIM CAUSES FLATS, AT HIGH SPEED THAT CAN BE DEADLY

ACCORDING TO TAKATA, IN THE EVENT OF AN INFLATOR EXPLOSION, METAL FRAGMENTS COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIR BAG CUSHION MATERIAL, WHICH MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. HOWEVER, A REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE? STILL??? I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE 2017!

POWER STEERING MALFUNCTION (CANNOT TURN BUT THE POWER WAS STILL ON. THE SCREEN IN FRONT OF DRIVER'S SEAT ALSO SHOWED THE MESSAGE.) SUDDENLY HAPPENED IN A SECOND WHEN I DROVE IN A LOW SPEED (AROUND 25-30). I WAS VERY VERY LUCKY ENOUGH TO SLIDE MY CAR SLOWLY BY THE CURB SINCE THE TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY. I GOT MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER WHICH I JUST FINISHED MY YEARLY MAINTENANCE 10 DAYS AGO. THEY FOUND MY CAR'S COMPUTER HAD A BUG. THEY RE-PROGRAMMED MY CAR'S COMPUTER IN THE NEXT DAY. THE PROBLEM HAS SOLVED SO FAR. THIS HAD HAPPENED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. I GOOGLED TO FIND THIS PROBLEM SEEMS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES BEFORE BUT NO RECALL. I DID THE MAINTENANCE WITH THE DEALER EVERY YEAR. DUE TO THE DEFECT AND DEALER'S NEGLIGENCE, MY LIFE HAD SERIOUSLY THREATENED BY THIS CRITICAL SITUATION. I WOULD URGE YOU TO INVESTIGATE THE SEVERITY FOR THIS CASE TO AVOID OTHER ACCIDENTS HAPPENING.
