Mercedes-Benz E-Class

"The A/C is always used. A/C Compressor broke. Dealer ordered one from Germany and installed. Working fine now. So far, the only problem. Great car to drive."

"The fan became noisy"

"The same as the other problem"

"Calipers were unevenly worn probably due to uneven brake pedal pressure. Unfortunately, all of these expensive parts have to be replaced, not just the ones that are worn"

"Parking brake could not be consistently released. Problem started soon after purchase but got worse over time. It was repaired."

"stuck in on position, will not reliably release"

"Plastic rear seat release to lay down back seat to expand cargo area broke.(it's a wagon)"

"This E Class is a coupe (C207) and the front seats are different from those in the sedan version. The coupe has Multi-Contour Seats, which feature inflatable air bladders that control the seatback side bolsters and lumbar/center back support. A leak in the inflation system caused the air pump to run continuously until the pump motor overheated and failed. The dealer replaced the air pump and then proceeded to replace each of the seven total bladders in the two front seats (there are four in the driver seat and three in the passenger seat), one by one, until the system was eventually airtight again. They had the car for more than four months and the total charge was $3,000. When I finally got the car back, I realized after using it several times that the bladders were inflating to maximum pressure every time the car was started (previously, the bladders had held their pressure settings indefinitely until the driver made changes to the controller settings). The car is now back at the dealer again and they seem unable to determine why this is happening. The shop foreman is suggesting replacing the control pods for each seat, which allow the occupant to adjust the individual bladder inflation, but they are reluctant to guarantee that this will fix the problem."

"Front passenger seat forward and backward mechanism makes the seat try to twist to the right when attempting to adjust the seat. I had the same problem with my 2012 E350 convertible."
