B200T LX 3.2L

  • CVT transmission
  • 31,069 miles

This is the worst car I’ve ever owned. I thought I was buying a good vehicle, and I promised to take care of it and I have followed all the regulations that Mercedes determined in the regular maintenance in my car. When I took it to the dealer, it cost me a bomb the first time to have it serviced so I went to an independent garage. My garage mechanic told me right away that there were serious problems with the suspension systems on the B 200s. I was hoping nothing bad would happen. And I had major transmission problems which Mercedes did repair and honour - however that bill cost me $4600 despite fact that it was covered.

Since then I have spent tons of money on this car and now I’m told that my coils are broken. I just wish everybody to know not to buy a Mercedes. I should’ve stuck to my earlier cars which were Toyotas and I should’ve bought Prius. This car is 10 years old - the body is in great shape and has 105,000 Kilometers. I drove the Toyota Previa no problem and solve it was 150,000 km on it. Do not buy a Mercedes.
