2023 · SERVICE BRAKES

I am a small auto repair shop, in Houston, Texas. The driver's (left) side rear brake caliper bracket appears to be defective. The car came in with the mental to metal break wear on the driver's side, while the passenger's side brake pads still at 50% life. The break wear sensor didn't trigger the light, because there is only one sensor on the passenger side. Upon further investigation found that the inner brake pad was catching on the caliper bracket. Same was true for the new brake pad set as well. Fault appears to be in the caliper bracket. This could be a designed flaw by the manufacture.,

2023 · ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

I am submitting this complaint regarding serious and repeated electronic failures in my 2023 Mercedes-Benz E 450 that pose a significant safety risk to myself and other drivers on the road. The vehicle has experienced complete dashboard failures on multiple occasions, including the loss of speedometer, fuel gauge, and gear shift indicators. Most critically, the vehicle recently shut down while in motion, displaying a “malfunction” warning and disabling the electronic steering system. I was unable to maneuver the vehicle off the road, creating an extremely dangerous situation. This vehicle has

2023 · POWER TRAIN

While driving, malfunction warning flashed on dash, followed by 48v malfunction warning, then engine coolant overheat warning. The car then went into limp mode and finally stopped completely. Luckily this occurred on a residential street and not on a high speed freeway - the car gave very little warning before drastically reduced speed and shutting down systems. A 48 volt battery problem should have a redundant system to prevent the engine from overheating and not shutting down the vehicle at speed. Very dangerous!

2023 · FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

The fuel pump on my vehicle failed multiple times, including coming off start / stop at traffic lights, as well as when being started.

I have left a message with my service agent at my Mercedes dealership. I had previously told them that this had happened before. I am concerned about the safety of a car the stalls like this. Please investigate. I see other reports abou
