2015 MERCEDES-BENZ E400 Complaints

The sub frame of this car is being replaced under a warranty extension due to severe rusting and separation creating an extremely unsafe driving condition. It was determined during inspection the rear brake lines were also corroded. This is also due to environmental exposure and substandard materials of construction. Many E classes of the W212 and prior have this concern but Mercedes is not covering the brake lines as part of this warranty. In fact they are charging up to $4000 to replace with the subframe already removed!! This is highly concerning as this is a safety concern that must be covered.

The contact owns a 2015 Mercedes-Benz E400. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the steering wheel material was peeling off. Additionally, the driver’s and passenger’s side window buttons were peeling. The contact stated that the dashboard was bubbling. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 76,000.

Went on a 2000 miles road trip and my blind spot monitoring systems and then my turn signals stopped working.

Purchased new 2015 MB e400 in 12/2014 MB issued a bulliten in 12/15 (1 year later) indicating that the engines may experience a problem with the timing belt harness which may cause engine failure. We have the exact same issue now at 69k miles and MB refuses to acknowledge the issue claiming i need a new engine. I cannot use the car for fear of engine failure which may cause death or serious injury
