MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 Equipment Report #10100723

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on Nov 19, 2004.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT . LN LATE AUGUST, THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD OF A 1999 MERCEDES BENZML430. CAR WAS DELIVERED TO THE DEALER TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS AND TESTS, MERCEDES BENZ DECIDED TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION. OWNER INCURRED COST OF LABOR. IN NOVEMBER, DRIVER WAS PARKING CAR AND REMOVED KEY FROM IGNITION WHILE TRANSMISSION WAS IN DRIVE. KEY RELEASED IN ERROR CAUSING CAR TO ROLL INTO A RAVINE AND HIT A TREE. MERCEDES HAS DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THE FAILURE OF THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE. IN FACT, THEY STATE THAT THE KEYS(3)ARE WORN DOWN AND NO LONGER PROVIDE THE SAFETY BY LIMITING THE RELEASE OF THE KEY UNLESS THE CAR IS IN PARK MODE. CAR WAS DELIVERED TO MERCEDES BENZ FOR INVESTIGATION. AFTER A TWO WEEK INVESTIGATION, MERCEDES CLAIMS THE KEYS(3) WERE WORN OUT AND THAT IS WHY THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE FAILED. MERCEDES IS TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR CORRECTING THE PROBLEM OR FIXING THE CAR. THE RESULT OF THIS "DEFECT" COULD INVOLVE SEVERAL FATALITIES. IF A DRIVER CAN REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT IN PARK, THIS FEATURE CAN NOT BE CLAIMED AS SAFE. IF MERCEDES CLAIMS THIS IS A KEY ISSUE, THEN ADDITIONAL SAFETY FEATURES SHOULD BE IN PLACE TO ALERT THE CONSUMER TO THIS PROBLEM. WHILE SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT, IT WAS NECESSARY TO FILL IN THE FIELD OF "HEADLIGHT LENSES." WRITER WAS NOT GIVEN ANY OPTIONS AND SO INPUTTED THIS INFORMATION IN ORDER TO PROCEED. AS YOU CAN SEE THE HEADLIGHT LENS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PROBLEM. ACCORDING TO MERCEDES THIS IS AN IGNITION/TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. *AK.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in RYE, NY.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on July 21, 2004.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . BRAKE LIGHTS BURN OUT FREQUENTLY ON MY 1999 MERCEDES SLK 230. LIGHT SOCKETS BURN WITH DISCOLORATION AND PLASTIC MELTS AT THE SOCKET AND CIRCUIT BOARD ON THE REAR OF THE TAILLIGHT. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE THE BURNED SOCKET FROM THE FIXTURE. THE INTENT OF THE DESIGN IS TO USE FINGER PRESSURE TO TWIST THE SOCKET OUT. DUE TO THE MELTING IT REQUIRES THE USE OF A WRENCH THAT THEN DAMAGES THE SOCKET SOMETIMES TO AN UNUSABLE CONDITION REQUIRING REPLACEMENT AT OWNER COST. DASH "BULB OUT" WARNING LIGHT IS TOO DIM TO NOTICE AND HIDDEN FROM VIEW BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. BULB OUT WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES SOMETIMES WHEN THERE ARE NO LIGHTS BURNED OUT SO THIS MAKES IT USELESS TO DETERMINE WHAT BULB IS ACTUALLY OUT IF ANY. MY CAR WAS IN THE MERCEDES SHOP FOR 30 DAYS AND RETURNED TO ME WITH THE COMMENT ⿿CONDITION COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED⿝ IN REGARDS TO THE TAILLIGHT. ALL THEY HAD TO DO IS REMOVE IT TO SEE THE BURNT CONDITION BUT THEY CHOSE TO IGNORE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD TO PURCHASE A HANDFUL OF SOCKETS TO KEEP ON HAND AS THEY NEED REPLACING EVERY MONTH OR SO. I EVEN PURCHASED A NEW SET OF TAILLIGHTS, THE ENTIRE HOUSING AND NEW SOCKETS THINKING THIS WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY BURNED OUT A MONTH LATER.

THE COUPE IS MORE EXPENSIVE ON INSURANCE - I HAVE BEEN OVERPAYING SINCE 2/2003. 2ND, AM I PAYING A FAIR LEASE RATE IF THE VIN# IS FOR ANOTHER BODY STYLE. THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT NIGHTMARE TO DEAL WITH SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASED IT. IT HAS BEEN SERVICED 8 TIMES, TRANSMISSION WORK, 2 COMPUTERS, CAMSHAFT, NEW RADIO, IDLE ISSUES, BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED, AND SO ON. IT'S A COMPLETE LEMON. IT IS GOING IN NEXT WEEK AGAIN. I HAVE ONLY 21,000 ON THE CAR, AND DRIVE MY 2ND CAR MORE A 79 300SD MERCEDES AS IT IS MORE RELIABLE THEN THIS NEW CAR.

DEALER AT NEWPORT BEACH CA TOLD ME THAT CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT DESIGNED TO DRIVE IN HILLS, ALL OF OC IS FULL OF HILLS. THEY DID NOTHING TO REPAIR PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. IN ADDITION I REPORTED THE AUTOMATIC CONTROL OPENER TO NOT WORK IN TEMP ABOVE 80 DEGREES. I'M NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM IS RELATED. IN 2005 THE SENSOR NOTICE CAME ON TO REPORT ELECTRONIC PROBLEM. I TOOK IT TO THE MB IN AUSTIN TEXAS. THE SERVICE REP TOLD ME IT WOULD COST $400 TO FIX.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on Mar 20, 2006.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . MANY NEWER CARS ARE EQUIPPED WITH BLINDING, BLUE-GREEN, HEADLIGHTS THAT ARE A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PROHIBITED. THERE ARE SEVERAL PROBLEMS. FIRST, WHEN SEEN FROM ANY ANGLE, THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE HIGHLY DISTRACTING, IN THAT THEY DRAW ONES EYES FROM THE ROAD AHEAD AND ON EITHER SIDE; THE REASON THAT THEY ARE DISTRACTING IS THAT THEY ARE OF A NOTABLY DIFFERENT COLOR AND ARE MUCH BRIGHTER THAN THE TRADITIONAL INCANDESCENT LIGHTS. SECOND, WHEN VIEWED FROM ANY ANGLE, THE LIGHT "FLARES" ABOUT ONES EYES, FORMING SPIKES THAT RADIATE OUTWARDS FROM THE LIGHT ITSELF, THEREBY OBSCURING ONE'S VIEW OF THINGS ABOVE, BELOW AND ON EITHER SIDE OF THE LIGHT ITSELF. THIRD, WHEN VIEWED FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, THE LIGHTS ARE OFTEN BLINDING, DEPENDING ON WHETHER THE ROAD IS FLAT OR HILLY, THE RESULT BEING TO OBSCURE ALMOST EVERYTHING AHEAD, ABOUT THE SAME AS TRADITIONAL INCANDESCENT LIGHTS ON "HIGH"BEAM. FOURTH, WHEN VIEWED FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION ON ROADWAYS THAT ARE NOT PERFECTLY LEVEL, THESE HEADLIGHTS ALTERNATE RAPIDLY, BACK AND FORTH, LIKE A STROBE LIGHT, BETWEEN "STANDARD" AND "BLINDING," A RESULT OF THE FACT (WHICH I ASSUME) THAT THE LIGHTS ARE VERY TIGHTLY FOCUSED, AND THE PROBLEM BEING THAT THE "FOCUSED" LIGHT UNDER THESE CONDITIONS IS REPEATEDLY FOCUSED ON THE EYES OF THE DRIVER HEADING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. THE MOST HAZARDOUS ARE ITEMS THREE AND FOUR, BUT ITEM FOUR IS PARTICULARLY HAZARDOUS BECAUSE IT COMBINES THE WORST OF ALL OF THE OTHERS - BOTH DISTRACTION AND BLINDINGNESS. CLEARLY, HEADLIGHTS NEED TO BE DESIGNED TO LIGHT THE WAY AHEAD; BUT THERE ARE COMPETING GOALS, WHICH INCLUDE NOT BLINDING OTHER DRIVERS. LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS WORLD, WHAT IS GOOD FOR ONE PERSON MUST BE WEIGHED AGAINST ITS NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON OTHERS. THAT IS WHERE GOVERNMENT HAS A KEY RESPONSIBILITY; TO ASSESS THE BENEFITS AND BURDENS AND ARRIVE AT A COMPROMISE THAT OPTIMALLY SUITS EVERYONE'S NEEDS BEST. *NM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in DAVIS, CA.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on May 12, 2006.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . THE ENGINE / FUEL INJECTION WIRING HARNESS OF MY 1992 MERCEDES-BENZ 500 SEL WAS REPLACED ONCE AND NOW HAS CRACKED INSULATION THROUGHOUT, I MIGHT ADD, THIS NEW HARNESS IS "SUPPOSED" TO BE THE NEW AND IMPROVED UPGRADED VERSION. IT DOES HAVE A DIFFERENT PART NUMBER THAN THE ORIGINAL. THE WIRES ARE ALL EXPOSED BECAUSE OF THE CRACKED INSULATION. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT A RARE WIRE, ALL OF THEM ARE CRACKED AND DAMAGED AND EXPOSED!!! BECAUSE OF THE OUTSIDE RUBBER CASING WHICH HOLDS ALL OF THE WIRES, I WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM UNTIL IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TOOO LATE. LUCKILY, MY MECHANIC, ED AT EDS MBZ IN GLENDALE CALIFORNIA, (818) 247-2369 WAS KNOWLEDGEABLE ENOUGH TO IMMEDIATELY CUT THE OUTSIDE CASING TO LOOK INSIDE. I AM STILL AMAZED A CAR COMPANY MAKING AN 80,000 TO 100,000 DOLLAR CAR WOULD HAVE THE AUDACITY TO MAKE ONE OF THE MOST CRUCIAL ELECTRICAL PARTS THE WIRING HARNESS SO BAD. WIRE HARNESSES ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE CAR- ITS A SAFETY ISSUE!!! IT IS BEGINNING TO SHORT OUT WITH THE RISK OF CAUSING DANGEROUS ENGINE MALFUNCTION AND EVEN FIRE INSIDE MY ENGINE COMPARTMENT. IT IS ALSO ONE OF THE MAJOR CAUSES FOR COMPUTER DAMAGE. ED SHOWED ME 12 HARNESSES HE "RECENTLY" REPLACED. ALL OF THEM THE SAME. I SPOKE WITH MBZ USA- FORGET IT- I THOUGHT I WAS SPEAKING WITH FORD REGARDING EXPLODING GAS TANKS ON OPINTO'S. THIS PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN WITH ANY GOOD RELIABLE MBZ MECHANIC. SINCE I WAS BLOWN OFF BY MBZ AMERICA, I CALLED AROUND- 5 MBZ DEALERS SERVICE MANAGERS WERE VERY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND ALL 10 INDEPENDENT MECHANICS WERE VERY AWARE AND EXPLAINED ALL THE DANGERS AND EXPENSE. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ MANY REPORTS OF OTHER MERCEDES-BENZ CARS OF THE SAME AGE RANGE HAVING THE EXACT SAME DEFECT.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on Jan 11, 2008.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . MY CONCERN AND COMPLAINT ARE THE NEW HALOGEN HEAD LIGHTS THAT ARE ON ALL NEW MODEL CARS AND SUVS. THEY ARE AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE A HAZARD TO ALL DRIVERS OF ON COMING TRAFFIC IN TWO WAYS ----THEY ARE BLINDING AND LEAVE THE DRIVE WITH THE SANE EFFECT AS HAVING A CAMERA FLASH GOING OFF IN YOUR FACE CLOSE UP AND NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE AFTERWARDS...... AND WITH A STREAM OF TRAFFIC ONE AFTER THE OTHER EVEN DURING THE DAY YOU ARE SO COMPROMISED THAT YOU HAVE TO TURN YOUR HEAD A AWAY FROM THE ON COMING TRAFFIC WHICH IS UNSAFE AND LEAVES YOU VULNERABLE. THE SECOND CONCERN I HAVE IN THE SAME AREA IS THAT I BELIEVE TIME WILL PROVE THAT THESE LIGHTS WILL ADD TO EYE DISORDERS LONG TERM. I BELIEVE THAT CATARACTS AND OTHER TYPES OF EYE COMPLAINTS WILL BECOME MORE COMMON AS THESE LIGHTS ARE INTRODUCED ACROSS THE BOARD. I DON'T SEE ANY REASON FOR SUCH STRONG LIGHTS WHEN OUR STREETS ARE MORE WELL LIGHT NOW THAN EVER IN HISTORY NOT ONLY BY STREET LIGHTS BUT BY BUSINESS SIGNS AND PARKING LOT LIGHTS AND THE HEADLIGHTS OF THE PAST WERE SUFFICIENT BEFORE ALL OF THAT. I THINK THEIR INTRODUCTION IS NOTHING MORE THAN MORE IS BETTER, BIGGER, STRONGER, FASTER MENTALITY HAS GONE CRAZY AND WE WILL PAY THE PRICE PHYSICALLY IN THE END......PLEASE INFORM ME OF THE NEED AND LOGIC TO THIS INSANE ADDITION TO THE MODERN CAR OF TODAY AND WHO RESEARCHED THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT FOR SAFETY BEFORE ALLOWING THE CAR MANUFACTURES OF TODAY TO INSTALL AND MARKET SUCH A DANGEROUS ADDITION TO OUR VEHICLE. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THE ELDERLY ARE GOING HAVE MORE ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THEM, DAY AND NIGHT DO TO THE EFFECTS TEMPORARY BLINDNESS AND YOUNGER DRIVES WILL HAVE A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE AND EARLIER SIGNS OF EYE PROBLEMS THAN THERE PARENTS NOT TO MENTION THEIR OWN ELEVATED ACCIDENT RECORDS.....I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU WOULD INVESTIGATE AND BEGIN TO KEEP RECORDS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ISSUE AND PLEASE RESPOND TO ME. *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in LOMITA, CA.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on May 10, 2009.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . 1992 MERCEDES BENZ 300SE THE ISSUE IS FROM THE RESULTS OF A DRYROTTED ENGINE WIRING HARNESS. DURING THE TIME PERIOD THIS CAR WAS MANUFACTURED MERCEDES BENZ USED A BIODEGRATABLE MATERIAL FOR THE WIRE COVERINGS. THIS MATERIAL THROUGH THE YEARS COULD NOT WITHSTAND THE HEAT PRODUCED BY THE ENGINE UNDER THE HOOD. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MERCEDES KNOW ABOUT AND HAS SINCE CHANGED THE WIRING HARNESS COVER MATERIAL A FEW YEAR LATER. ALL THEIR MECHANICS KNOW THIS AND IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON EVERY MERCEDES FORUM THAT I HAVE FOUND. I AM TALKING ABOUT THOUSANDS OF OCCURRENCES RECORDED. THE REDESIGNED HARNESS IS A $600.00 ITEM WHICH IS WHY MERCEDES TENDS TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY AND REFUSES TO ACCEPT THIS AS A RECALL ITEM. THIS ITEM MUST BE ADDRESSED BECAUSE IF GONE UNATTENDED IT BECOMES A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD WHICH IS ALSO WELL DOCUMENTED AND WAS MENTIONED BY MY MECHANIC. HE ALSO STATED THAT MOST DEALERSHIPS WILL NOT WORK ON THESE CARS UNLESS THE ENGINE HARNESS IS REPLACED FIRST. THIS IS BECAUSE THE CAR IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DIAGNOSIS IF THE WIRING IS NOT IN A GOOD WORKING CONDITION DUE TO THE FACT THAT FALSE SIGNALS ARE SENT TO THEIR DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT. MY MECHANIC ALSO PROVIDED ME WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM HIS MERCEDES BENZ PRELIMINARY INSPECTION & ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES MANUAL. IT IS RETYPED AND QUOTED EXACTLY AS THE MERCEDES BENZ DOCUMENTATION STATES. PRELIMINARY INSPECTION & DOCUMENTATION VISUAL INSPECTION 1) VISUALLY INSPECT ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING, LOOKING FOR CHAFTED, STRETCHED, CUT OR PINCHED WIRING. ENSURE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS FIT TIGHTLY AND ARE NOT CORRODED. CHECK FOR LOOSE OR DEFECTIVE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ON STARTER MOTOR. ENSURE ALL VACUUM HOSES ARE PROPERLY? NOW I ASK YOU; IF THIS IS NOT KNOWN BY MERCEDES BENZ TO BE AN ISSUE THEN WHY IS IT THE VERY FIRST THING IN THEIR PRELIMINARY INSPECTION THAT THEY HAVE ALL OF THEIR TRAINED MECHANICS LOOK FOR? *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in GILBERT, AZ.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on Sept 01, 2009.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT . ON TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL, CAR STARTED, IMMEDIATELY RED-LINED, AND STARTED SHAKING AS THE RPM LIMITER KICKED IN. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, NOT THE ACCELERATOR. REMOVED FOOT FROM BRAKE AND VISUALLY CONFIRMED CORRECT FOOT PLACEMENT BEFORE REAPPLYING PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. DURING REMOVAL OF FOOT FROM BRAKE PEDAL TO VISUALLY CONFIRM, CAR CONTINUED TO REDLINE. TURNED ENGINE OFF VIA KEY WITHIN 5-10 SECONDS OF OCCURRENCE. VERIFIED THAT FLOOR MAT WAS NOT BETWEEN THE FLOOR AND THE ACCELERATOR. ENGINE RESTARTED WITHOUT INCIDENT. MENTIONED THE OCCURRENCE TO LOCAL MB DEALERSHIP BUT NO CODES WERE FOUND WHEN CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR ROUTINE SERVICE A FEW MONTHS LATER. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE ACCELERATOR WAS ACTUATED SLIGHTLY VIA THE ALL WEATHER MB FLOORMATS THAT HAD RECENTLY BEEN INSTALLED IN CAR MIGRATING FORWARD AND GETTING WEDGED BETWEEN THE FLOOR OF THE CAR AND THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE ACCELERATOR. THE INCLUDED ALLIGATOR CLIPS HAD NOT BEEN INSTALLED WITH THE FLOOR MATS. HOWEVER, WITH THE ENGINE ON AND CAR IN PARK, MANUALLY WEDGING THE FLOOR MAT BETWEEN THE FLOOR AND THE PEDAL DID NOT DUPLICATE THE ENGINE REDLINING. REGARDLESS, THE CLIPS WERE PROMPTLY INSTALLED AFTER THIS OCCURRENCE AND THE FLOOR MAT HAS NOT MIGRATED FORWARD UNDER THE GAS PEDAL SINCE. IT IS UNCLEAR IF THE UNINTENDED REDLINING ON STARTING THE ENGINE WAS DUE TO THE PRESSURE OF THE FLOOR MAT BETWEEN THE FLOOR AND THE ACCELERATOR OR SOME OTHER ISSUE. EITHER WAY, THE UNINTENDED REDLINING HAS NOT RECURRED SINCE. NOTE: THE WEB INTERFACE INSISTS ON OFFERING "HEADLIGHT LENS" AS THE ONLY OPTION UNDER EQUIPMENT. THE ABOVE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE HEADLIGHT LENS. *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in WEBSTER GROVES, MO. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on June 26, 2010.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT . THE INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR IN MY 2003 MERCEDES-BENZ SLK 230 (R170 MODEL) IS AN ELECTRO CHROMIC SELF-DIMMING MIRROR THAT HAS NO MANUAL BACKUP. THE MIRROR CONTAINED A FLUID WHICH LEAKED OUT CAUSING THE SELF-DIMMING MIRROR TO FAIL TO PROVIDE DIMMING AGAINST REAR APPROACHING HEADLIGHTS RESULTING IN THE DRIVER TO EITHER BE BLINDED OR TO HAVE TO TURN THE MIRROR AWAY WHICH GREATLY ELIMINATES REAR VIEW CAPABILITY IN THE INTERIOR. THERE ARE NUMEROUS DOCUMENTED CASES OF THESE MIRRORS FAILING IN VARIOUS MAKES AND MODELS AS A RESULT OF USUALLY FROM THE INTERNAL FLUID LEAKING. I CONTACTED THE OEM MIRROR MAKER, AND THEY REFUSED TO RETURN OUR PHONE CALL/MESSAGES. I RECENTLY READ ON THE MAINTENANCE BLOGS THAT MAGNA DONNELLY WERE REPLACING BUT, STOPPED ALL OF SUDDEN. I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT HAS EVER EXPERIENCED SUCH A PROBLEM WITH THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in FAIRFIELD, CA.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on July 22, 2010.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL . THE CAM SENSORS ON THE MERCEDES M271 ENGINE LEAK OIL WHICH SPREADS TO OTHER COMPONENTS VIA THE WIRE HARNESSES CONNECTED TO CAM SENSORS. OIL CONTAMINATION WILL DAMAGE OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (NAMELY THE ECU AND EXHAUST OXYGEN SENSORS) IF THE CAM SENSORS AND WIRE HARNESSES ARE NOT REPLACED. A NEW CAM SENSOR AND WIRE HARNESS HAS BEEN DESIGNED AS THE CORRECTIVE ACTION. THE DEFECTIVE CAM SENSOR AND WIRE HARNESS WERE USED ON THE PREVIOUS ENGINE DESIGN (M111). THERE IS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR M111 ENGINE BUT NOT THE M271 ENGINE. MERCEDES REFUSES TO RECALL THIS DEFECTIVE DESIGN ON THE M271 ENGINE CAUSING OWNERS TO PAY FOR THE $900 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE. WITHOUT THIS REPAIR THE ECU (PART COST $2000) AND OXYGEN SENSORS (QTY 2 @ $238 EA) WILL BE EVENTUALLY DAMAGED AND WILL NEED TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED. WITHIN THE PAST WEEK, PAID MORE THAN $ 2,400.00 TO REPLACE 2 CAM SENSORS, 2 OXYGEN SENSORS, AND WIRING HARNESS. REPAIR SHOP SAYS THAT THIS IS A DEFECT THAT MB HAS KNOWN ABOUT FOR YEARS. *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in HOBOKEN, NJ. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999 car safety problem was reported on Sept 09, 2010.MERCEDES BENZ HEADLIGHT LENSES 9999, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with EQUIPMENT . I HAVE A 2007 MERCEDES CLS 550. MY HEADREST HAVE DEPLOYED FOR SOME REASON ON AT LEAST FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. WHEN THE HEADREST DEPLOYS IT HITS ME IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. IT HAS HAPPENED 2X WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND 2X WHILE BACKING UP. THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPAIRED THE HEADREST ON AT LEAST FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. INCLUDING KEEPING THE VEHICLE FOR ALMOST A MONTH AND HALF. THAT REPAIR WAS JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO. LAST WEEK WHILE DRIVING ON THE FWY, THE HEADREST DEPLOYED AGAIN FOR NO REASON AND STRUCK ME IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECT AND A SAFETY CONCERN. IN ADDITION, MY VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL STARTED PEELING A YEAR AGO. THIS PAINT COMES OFF ON MY HANDS AND CAN END UP IN MY EYES, NOSE AND MOUTH. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE CONTENTS OF THE PAINT. MERCEDES REFUSES TO REPLACE MY STEERING WHEEL OR REPAIR IT. WHEN THE PEELING FIRST OCCURRED THE DEALERSHIP ORDERED ME A NEW STEERING WHEEL AND SAID THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH SOME OF THE MODELS. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE STEERING WHEEL INSTALLED, AFTER THE DEALERSHIP HAD ORDERED A NEW ONE, THEY THEN SAID THAT I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND MERCEDES REFUSED TO COVER THE COST. MY VEHICLE WAS STARMARKED AND I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 100,000 MILES. AT THE TIME OF THE PEELING MY VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 54,000 MILES. I AM NOT SURE OF THE CONTENTS OF THE PAINT. HOWEVER, I DON'T FEEL THAT THE STEERING WHEEL SHOULD BE PEELING AND THE CONTENTS COMING OFF ON MY HANDS. *TR.Mercedes Benz Headlight Lenses 9999 problem was reported in NORTHRIDGE, CA.
