Started developing (April 2021) a rattle in car's roof along with occasional metal popping sound coming from rear of car. Continued to get worse. Then rattle stopped for a while and so did the metal popping sound. Now ( August, 2021)it sounds like there is a bolt loose in the sunroof area and the metal popping sound is really loud and I think coming from roof. Most of the time when car body twist, like going up a slight incline at an angle when entering a parking lot this incredible loud popping sound resonates throughout the entire car body. Played around on Mercedes website and it appears that Mercedes has problems with sunroof bolts coming loose. This is a safety defect -- if sunroof comes lose at 70 mph it is going to fly off and hurt or kill someone. Also strength of roof is compromised and if have accident where roof protection is needed it will probably fail.

Panoramic roof making noise. Upon dealer troubleshooting was informed panoramic roof weld or hardware is affected. Car only has 35000 miles and car was about week past the 5 year manufacture warranty. I was informed dealer would have to replace the panoramic sunroof and cost will be around $8500 issue is noticed when car is driven and noise gets louder and frequent with high temp outside.
