problem #1

Oct 192015

CLS400 V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10,000 miles

Electronic command system malfunctioning & shutting down while vehicle is being driven. Navigation goes black, blinks off/on, windows roll up but not down, side view mirrors are folding in/out while vehicle is being driven, radio & air conditioning turning itself off & on which is a pain especially with the heat & you can't even roll the window down. The worst thing is the electronic braking system is activating itself while the car is being driven. The car is unsafe to drive.The keyless entry will not work unless you remove the hard key and manually open the door then you have to pop out the automatic push button to manually insert key to start it.Since this has been a reoccurring issue I have notified MB USA in hopes to solve the problem since the dealership the car was purchased from has no clue what is wrong with the vehicle.

Update from Oct 29, 2015: Well I got my vehicle back after 7 days and the solution was to change out the ignition switch & give me a new key. At this point the dealership has no idea if this will fix the problem with the vehicle. If the vehicle is not repaired and the problems reoccur then I have already filed a claim with MB USA and I will ask that they buy the vehicle back from me. I will update my complaint if the vehicle is not repaired.

Update from Feb 27, 2016: Well I'm back again for the 4th-5th time.My vehicle malfunctioned again.Same exact problems.I told MBUSA that the car was unsafe to drive & they made the repair & put me back on the road in this vehicle again.I believe I am within the laws of this vehicle being a lemon & plan on exercising my rights.I had the car for a few months and it's malfunctioning again.
