MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008 car safety problem was reported on July 09, 2012.MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . both right and left rear tail lights malfunctioned. first, i noticed that one or the other of the right side turn signals failed to function because i heard a rapid clicking as i made a right turn into a parking lot. once stopped, i noticed that the mercedes command system said to check the left rear tail and brake light bulbs. i saw no mention of the right turn signal. when i left the parking lot an hour later, there was no indication on the command system as to anything being wrong. at home, i removed the left printed circuit board and saw that the tail light/brake light bulbs were very dark and gave the appearance of having failed. on testing them with an ohmmeter, i discovered that they in fact had not failed. even so i wanted to replace them, and on the 10th, which turns out to be 1 day after my 4 year warranty expired, i went by the dealership and the service rep gave me two replacement bulbs. i changed out the old bulbs and all appeared okay. however, the next time i drove the car long enough to get it thoroughly warmed up, i got indications from the command system that not only had a left brake light failed but also the right rear turn signal and also a right side marker. i removed the right rear tail light circuit board and found a burned wire and burned spot on the board itself. i saw nothing on the left rear board. on the 13th, i considered having the car towed to the dealership but decided to drive it. standing outside the car i saw that the right rear turn signal wasn't working at times, but the rear brake lights appeared to function. in summary, there appeared to be a malfunction in one or both tail light assemblies that occurred due to heat. the dealer replaced the printed circuit board on the right and made other necessary and returned the car in what appears to be good condition. my cost was 50% of the total. .Mileage was 39000 miles.

MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008 car safety problem was reported on May 01, 2013.MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . randomly i started receiving check bulb messages for the rear lights on both sides of my car. i didn't think much of it as i don't think they had ever been changed so i changed them and all was fine and then a few weeks later the messages started to pop up again. i rechecked the bulbs to make sure they were securely in place and they were so i started doing a little research and discovered that this was a known issue. presently the entire left rear side is out and it looks like the wiring has overheated and been singed (looks like it had burned).when calling all the local southern cali dealerships (orange county/long beach) none of them will admit to it being a widespread problem and fixing it for free because the parent company, mercedes benz, hasn't yet. i have no desire to pay for a problem that should have never occurred in the first place. my major concern is about potential fires in the trunk due to this. all it will take is one spark to catch on something in the trunk and then well car is on fire. as much a mercedes benz claims to be about safety, i'm shocked, one at the design flaw and two that they are going through the motions of pretending like the thousands of owners who have reported this are making it up. they need to get on this asap. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 90000 miles.

MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008 car safety problem was reported on May 20, 2014.MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . i was driving around 8pm here in canada when i was pulled over for a flickering driver-side tail light. the officer warned me that it was a safety issue. my wife told me after driving beside me that the light flickers intermittently, and when it is not, the parking light itself is much dimmer than the passenger-side tail light. i've tried replacing the bulbs, but nothing changes. after doing research online, i've found that this is a common issue with 2008-2011 mercedes c-class models. i've found that the electrical wiring for the taillights is not sufficiently grounded, causing melting of the wiring harness, and in some cases, causing a fire. i've called mercedes dealerships here in vancouver, but because the car is no longer under warranty, it is an expensive issue to fix. it is also a safety hazard to myself and other drivers when driving at night. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 97500 miles.

MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008 car safety problem was reported on Nov 23, 2014.MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. had a problem with STEERING . my car was parked in my garage when i turned the key in the ignition and tried to start the car. there was nothing. i tried several times, turning the key back and forth, taking it out, turning it. still nothing. i called aaa. they tested the battery. it was functioning. the aaa technician noted that the door locks and audio locking signals were working. i called, bill, my service tech at the mbz dealership and left a message for him to phone me. in the meantime, i called a local mechanic that had repaired other family vehicles. he said he would take a look at it. so i had it towed to his shop. bill called me back late afternoon and asked me to try the spare key to see if it would start. i had my neighbor drive me to the shop where my car was and tried the spare key. still nothing. i spoke with the family mechanic. he was not able to start the vehicle, nor had he serviced it. he believed that it was a problem with the eis and said the dealer needed to do the repair. i called bill back. let him know the spare did not work and arranged to have my car towed to the dealership the next day. later the next day, bill called me and stated that the issue was with the electronic ignition system. i needed to replace the steering lock. he could order the part. the cost would be $1,100. i asked what would cause the part to fail. he said that electronic systems, like his tv, just fail over time. i authorized the repair. i have always taken my car into this dealership for its regularly scheduled maintenance and was surprised that it would need such a critical and costly repair. i checked online and noted that this is a common problem with the 2008 mbz c300. i am surprised that the manufacturer has not notified vehicles owners and taken responsibility for this apparent defect..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 107000 miles.

MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008 car safety problem was reported on Sept 24, 2013.MERCEDES BENZ C300 2008, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . on september 24, 2013, my 2008 mercedes-benz c300 with 32,050 miles would not start despite multiple attempts. each time i would try and start it everything came on in the cabin but there was a complete disconnect to the engine which would not even crank. roadside assistance came out my home and determined the battery was fine, i then had to have the vehicle towed into the dealer. during this visit, they replaced the electrical control unit and it was there for a full week. in october 2014 and at 39,000 miles, the problem began again in that the car would not start intermittently and i had to go back to the dealer. they again replaced the electrical control unit which took another week. a few days later, the car would not start again for an entire day despite multiple attempts and i was stranded. another tow and back to the dealer again, this time they stated it was also the electronic ignition switch (eis) and eletronic steering lock (esl) that were faulty and would need to be replaced at an approximate cost of $2000. i argued with them extensively on why all these parts were failing on a vehicle with such low mileage and they acknowledged this was a known problem on this model year. after two additional weeks in for service, the vehicle was just returned to me. besides a known mechanical problem with these parts which mb has not addressed, this also represents potential safety hazards for drivers if you become stuck in a remote or dangerous area or in inclement weather when this happens and cannot call out for assistance. based on this experience and the many similar reported at the http://mbworld.org forum, the nhtsa should coordinate a safety recall on these vehicles with mb. there has already been one recall on this model year related to electrical problems with the tailights which could catch fire, my vehicle also had this problem. thank you..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 32050 miles.
