2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL I OWN A 2010 MERCEDES GLK 350 AND WAS FIRST NOTIFIED BY MERCEDES BACK IN MAY OF 2016 WITH AN ANTICIPATED REPAIR DATE OF SEPTEMBER 2017. THAT WAS THEN CHANGED TO MARCH 2018 AND THEN SEPTEMBER 2018. THE LATEST INFORMATION NOW STATES SEPTEMBER 2019 AND I HAVE NO FAITH THAT IT WILL BE COMPLETED BY THEN. I FIND THIS DEPLORABLE AND CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ACCEPTS THIS CONTINUOUS PUSHBACK OF REPAIRS

TAKATA AIRBAGS, PRIORITY GROUP 6: I BELIEVE MERCEDES BENZ IS DRAGGING ITS FEET IN MAKING THESE REPAIRS. I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL LETTERS DATING BACK TO 2017. EACH ONE PROVIDES A DATE WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE AND THE DATES COME AND GO. THE LAST DATE PROVIDED WAS TO BE SEPTEMBER 30, 2018. WHEN I CALLED MB TODAY, THEY TOLD ME THE DATE HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL SEPTEMBER OF 2019! THAT IS ONE YEAR AWAY. THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND COMPLETE THESE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK THE CAR SMELLS AND LEAKS GAS. HOWEVER, THE LEAKS STOPS AFTER FEW HOURS. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MERCEDES REPAIR SHOP, THEY TOLD ME THEY NEED TO CHANGE A UNIT AND THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR MERCEDES. AFTER SPENDING $450, THE PROBLEM CAME BACK A MONTH LATER. NOW, THEY ARE SAYING, I NEED TO CHANGE ANOTHER FUEL UNIT WHICH WILL COST ME AN ADDITION $650!

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN CALLING MY DEALERSHIP SINCE I GOT A NOTICE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I CANNOT GET AN ANSWER AS TO WHEN THEY INTEND TO REPLACE THEM. THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, AND ARE EVASIVE WHEN YOU QUESTION THEM. MOREOVER THE PERRILLI TIRES ON MY CAR ARE CONSTANTLY GOING FLAT. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 13 TIRES. AND MY CAR HAS ONLY 44,000 MILES. THEY BLOW UP WHILE I AM DRIVING...IT'S NEVER A SLOW LEAK.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CONTACTED MERCEDES 5 TIMES IN REGARDS TO FIXING THE AIR BAG ISSUE, I HAVE A SENSOR ON THE DASH BOARD THAT TELLS ME MY AIR BAG IS MALFUNCTIONING. MERCEDES HAS TOLD ME THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS, I CAN COME IN AND THEY WILL TURN THE SENSOR OFF AND CHARGE ME FOR THE LABOR. THEY SENT ME NOTIFICATION TELLING ME IT WAS AFFECTED. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 2 YEARS.
