The sunroof spontaneously shattered while driving down the interstate. No other cars involved and no rocks or debris caused it. It was inspected and repaired at a Mercedes dealer, however, Mercedes refused to cover the repair under the pre-owned certified warranty. We had to file an insurance claim.

We intermittently experience phantom braking, including on the highway with no objects or vehicles ahead of us (for example, not on a curve, no vehicle visible within half a kilometer). Vehicle abruptly slows. This includes when in a lane (no lane change). It also can occur during a properly indicated lane change. It occurs when we are driving the posted limit. It also occurs when there are no parallel nearby roads. This appears to be a significant safety issue.

We were not on a highway at the time and were able to pull over to a gas station. MB roadside was called and towed the car to Euro Motorcars Devon of D

The passenger rear wheel brake caliper lower bolt got loose. The bolt is most likely not available for inspection. The caliper body then started rubbing against the wheel inside surface and caused a noise. If the caliper body had jammed into the wheel and stopped it from rotating, say on the highway, the vehicle could have skidded or rolled over? The MB dealership inspected and replaced the bolt. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. The no
