I am reporting a catastrophic repeat engine failure on my 2020 Mercedes-Benz C300. On October 9, 2025, with 26,589 miles, the vehicle suffered a Cylinder 2 failure (exhaust valves), causing a dangerous loss of power in traffic. I paid $4,100.43 for a $10,000 plus cylinder head replacement at an authorized dealer (Mercedes-Benz of Atlanta South) on November 13, 2025. Following the repair, the vehicle continued to exhibit multiple 'Check Engine Oil Level' warnings. On February 4, 2026—less than

I purchased this vehicle on December 26, 2025 from an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership. Shortly after the purchase, I discovered an issue related to the airbag system, which indicates a potential safety defect. At the time of purchase and during the test drive, the vehicle was already turned on, and no warning or disclosure was provided regarding any airbag malfunction or warning message. The issue became apparent only after the purchase. I later brought the vehicle in for repairs. While so

points: ⸻ While driving, the vehicle displays the warning “Active Brake Assist Functions Limited – See Operator’s Manual.” The message appears during normal driving and does not go away. This warning indicates that the automatic emergency braking / Active Brake Assist system is limited or disabled, reducing a critical safety feature designed to help prevent or mitigate collisions. This creates a safety risk because the vehicle may not automatically brake in an emergency situation.

I purchased this 2020 Mercedes-Benz C300 only two months ago and have driven it less than 3,000 miles. The Carfax report shows consistent maintenance and regular service history by prior owners. While driving, the check engine light came on and the vehicle began shaking and running roughly. Diagnostics by Peachtree Imports (10/03/2025) and later by Mercedes-Benz of Atlanta South confirmed Cylinder #2 failure on the M264 2.0L engine at only 26,589 miles. The dealer’s report states: “Cylinder

BOTH the front tires in my 2020 Mercedes C300 developed sudden belt separation while driving at highway speed this past weekend. These tires were installed by Mercedes of Delray Beach Florida as part of my CPO vehicle purchase in September of 2022 and have less-than 20K miles on them. Tires are Continental ProContact size 225/45 R18 and marked M+S as well as MOE. The vehicle received a routine four-wheel alignment as part of my annual servicing in July 2025 by Mercedes of Fort Pierce, and no in

Over the past month, my 2020 Mercedes-Benz C300 has been experiencing unexpected and increasingly concerning issues with the steering. These problems began suddenly and without any prior warning signs. Initially, the steering has been making grinding sounds more usual, particularly at lower speeds and when making tight turns. Over the following weeks, the issue became more pronounced, with occasional instances of the steering wheel resisting movement or feeling delayed in its response. At times,

I own a 2020 Mercedes-Benz C300, and the check engine light recently came on. The vehicle has only around 27,000 miles and has been regularly maintained at an authorized dealership. Diagnostic testing revealed fault code P06DA00, indicating an electrical failure or open circuit in the engine oil pump control valve. The dealership confirmed that the valve could not actuate and provided a repair estimate exceeding $7,000 due to the labor-intensive nature of the repair. This issue occurred shortl

THE COMPONENT THAT IS MALFUCTIONING IS THE COVERTABLE TOP OF MY 2020 C300 CABRIOLET MERCESDES BENZ.

Cylinder head is defective. Service advisor told me it was a known issue in which exhaust valves within cylinder head are prone to premature wear. If left unaddressed it leads to inevitable engine failure. I was quoted $12,000. My car is 2020 model year with not even 60,000. Barely even 4 years old.

The issue is that the trunk lid closes abruptly and unintentionally. On Saturday, February 3, 2024, as I was putting a shopping bag in the trunk of my car, the trunk lid closed abruptly without my pressing the close button and hit my forehead. The impact was such that my eyeglasses flew off my face and hit the ground. The pain was severe and two days later, I still have pain. While there was no tear to the skin, there's a bump on my forehead and is still painful. The head injuries generally do
