I SPECIFICALLY CHECKED FOR ANY VEHICLE RECALLS WHEN PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MORE THAN I WANTED TO SPEND, I WANTED A CAR THAT WOULD NOT HAVE A TAKADA AIRBAG RECALL BECAUSE THE LINCOLN MKZ I PREVIOUSLY OWNED HAD THE TAKADA AIRBAG RECALL AND THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION. I WAS TERRIFIED WHEN MY DAUGHTER TOTALED THE MKZ AND I SPECIFICALLY WANTED TO PURCHASE A VEHICLE WITH NO AIRBAG RECALL. TODAY 02/25/2019 I WAS INFORMED FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT THE MERCEDES BENZ I HAD PURCHASED HAD A TAKEDA AIRBAG RECALL. THAT RECALL GOES BACK TO 01/1990! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE VIN # SEARCH STATED THIS VEHICLE HAD NO RECALLS WHEN I PURCHASED IT, THAT INFORMATION SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRANSPARENT AND DISCLOSED. THIS SHOULD BE A VIOLATION OF MY RIGHT, ESPECIALLY SINCE I SPECIFIED THAT I DID NOT WANT A VEHICLE WITH AN AIRBAG RECALL. NOW I AM IN DEBT FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS A SERIOUS RECALL WITH NO RESOLUTION. AGAIN FEARFUL AND STRESSED BECAUSE IT WAS A GIFT FOR MY DAUGHTER. THIS NEEDS TO STOP. HUGE CORPORATIONS PREFERRING TO SETTLE INDIVIDUAL SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OR CASUALTIES INSTEAD OF FIXING THE ISSUE BECAUSE IT IS NOT COST EFFECTIVE. I WAS LIED TO INTENTIONALLY TO ENSURE A SALE OF THEIR VEHICLE WITHOUT DISCLOSING FULL INFORMATION.

I WAS STOPPED IN FRONT OF MY GARAGE (WAITING FOR THE DOOR TO GO UP). WHEN I LIGHTLY PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL TO PULL IN, THE ENGINE ROARED AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LEAPED FORWARD AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED, GOING THRU MY DETACHED GARAGE WALL. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK AND I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO STOP. I HAVE PULLED INTO THIS GARAGE THOUSANDS OF TIMES AND KNEW THIS WAS THE CAR. SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES COULD NOT STOP THE CAR BECAUSE IT WAS ACCELERATING TOO QUICKLY. HITTING THE BRICK FACADE OF THE CONDOMINIUM, BEYOND THE DETACHED GARAGE WAS THE ONLY THING THAT STOPPED THE CAR. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, WHICH I THOUGHT THEY SHOULD HAVE BECAUSE OF THE IMPACT. EVEN THOUGH I ONLY TRAVELED APPROXIMATELY 30 FEET, THE CAR ACCELERATED SO QUICKLY, IT TOTALED THE CAR. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY UNDER RECALL AS OF NOVEMBER 2017, FOR A STEERING COLUMN ISSUE, WHICH INCLUDES IMPROPERLY GROUNDED COMPONENTS AND THE STEERING COLUMN CLOCK SPRING BEING BROKEN ISSUE RELATED TO THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. I HAVE TIRED SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE THE CAR REPAIRED AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE MERCEDES DEALERSHIP STILL DOES NOT HAVE THE PART. PER THE DEALERSHIP AND MERCEDES, I WAS ADVICED I WOULD RECEIVE A LETTER WHEN IT WAS AVAILABLE. I PURCHASED THE CAR USED AND HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT SINCE THIS IS THE THIRD RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. I BELIEVE IT HAD TO BE SOMETHING WITH EITHER THE ACCELERATOR AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGING. IT WAS ALMOST LIKE THE CRUISE CONTROL QUICKED IN. SINCE IT IS UNDER RECALL FOR THE STEERING

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION IN OCTOBER 2017 TK HOLDINGS INC.'S CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY. THIS WAS THE FIRST NOTIFICATION THAT I RECEIVED THAT MY 2014 MERCEDES C300 HAD A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER NEVER PROVIDED ONE. I LOOKED UP ON-LINE REGARDING THE RECALL AND DISCOVERED MY CAR IS AFFECTED. I HAD SCHEDULED SERVICES AT THE DENVER MERCEDES DEALERSHIP ON 12/28/17 AND TOOK IN THE DOCUMENTATION I HAD RECEIVED/DISCOVERED ON-LINE AND ASKED MY SERVICE REP ABOUT IT. HE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO GO ON-LINE AND REGISTER. THAT WAS IT. IF MY CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A SAFETY REASON I CERTAINLY DESERVE MORE OF AN EXPLANATION THAN BEING TOLD TO GO REGISTER ON-LINE. WHEN WILL THE DEFECT BE RECTIFIED AND WHEN WILL THE MANUFACTURER/DEALER CORRECT THE DEFECT SO THAT I AM NOT IN DANGER?

TAKATA RECALL MERCEDES HAS OPEN RECALL ON A GROUND WIRE THAT MAY MALFUNCTION CAUSING AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO FIX OFFERED

I HAVE RECEIVED A NOTICE EARLIER THIS YEAR REGARDING MY AIRBAG RECALL AND STILL NO DEALER CAN TELL ME WHEN THE REPLACEMENT WILL BE IN. JUST YESTERDAY 10/26/2017 I RECEIVED A MAILER NOTICE THAT TK HOLDINGS HAS FILED FOR CHAPTER 11. HOW DO I GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED?

WHEN THE OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE IS COVERED WITH SNOW OR ICE IT WILL NOT ALLOW OUTSIDE AIR INTO THE HVAC SYSTEM. THIS CAUSES THE FRONT WINDOW DEFROSTER TO NOT BE ABLE TO BLOW AIR ON THE WINDSHIELD TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW ON BEHALF OF MERCEDES BENZ. IF HOT WATER IS POURED OVER THE OUTSIDE AIR INTAKE SCREEN THE BLOWER WILL OPERATE PROPERLY, BLOWING HOT AIR TO DEFROST THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. ONLY HAPPENS IF THE CAR IS OUTSIDE WITH SNOW OR ICE BUILDUP TO BLOCK AIRFLOW INTO THE HVAC SYSTEM. DEFROSTER WILL WORK PROPERLY IF NO SNOW OR ICE IS COVERING THE AREA.

AT FIRST THE CAR WOULD HAVE A LIGHT TICKING OR KNOCKING NOISE AFTER A 15-20 MINUTE RUN ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. LAST WEEK, FRIDAY EVENING, I STARTED SMELLING SMOKE SOMETHING LIKE PLASTIC, ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU SEARCH FOR THE SOURCE. IT SEEM AS THOUGHT THE SMOKEY SMELL IS COMING FROM THE INSIDE BUT AFTER OPENING THE DRIVERSIDE DOOR THE BURNING SMELL IS COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. ON YESTERDAY, MONDAY, FOUR DAYS SINCE I FIRST SMELL OF SMOKE, WHICH IS CONSISTENT NOW AND LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC WHO SAID RUNNING OVER A PLASTIC BAG IS THE POSSIBLE PROBLEM. SOUNDED LOGICAL UNTIL A FEW HOURS LATER AFTER A 25 MILE HIGHWAY RUN AT 70+MPH THE CAR WAS SHAKING AND STUGGLING TO STAY ON. THE SMOKEY SMELL WAS ELEVATED AND THE POWERTRAIN LIGHT WAS ON. CALLED THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME TO PULL OVER, WAIT AND RESTART THE CAR. NOW I'M AFAID TO DRIVE THE CAR WHICH IS SCHEDULED FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TODAY, TUESDAY, MAY 17, 2016. WHERE THERE'S SMOKE THERE'S FIRE,

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY AND THE TRUNK WAS OPENED WHEN THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE WINDOW WAS NOT STRUCK. THIS OCCURRED AFTER A 200 MILE HIGHWAY TRIP WITH NO ISSUES. OBVIOUSLY, IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFICULT SITUATION.
