For some unknown reasons my windows go down while Driving , Sometimes they may work fine, then out of Know where all all 4 Windows go Down at any Time , came be Very Dangerous in a Rain Storm or Huracane , i have taken my Car to atleasat 2-3 Shops they Pretend to repair it and said they needed a better Scanner. I don't Know what to do, it's Very dangerous to Drive in the Rain.
WHILE DRIVING MY WINDOWS GO DOWN WHEN DRIVING WITHOUT A NOTICE, THIS CAN BE SAFETY ISSUE WHEN I'M DRIVING, ALSO CAN BE A DISTRACTION FAR AS SAFETY GOES, THIS HAPPENS OFTEN WITHOUT NOTICE AND ALLOWS THE RAIN TO ENTER INSIDE MY VEHICLE.
WENT TO PUT MY TOP UP ON MERCEDES CABRIOLET PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. WITH THE KEY ON AND THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF, IN PARK, PARKING BRAKE ON, PRESSED CLOSURE BUTTON. DURING CLOSURE HEADRESTS BEGAN TO RAISE. NOT A SUDDEN POP UP KIND OF RAISING, BUT A SLOW, STEADY RAISING, AS IF I HAD MY HAND ON THE BUTTON TO RAISE THEM, YET I DID NOT. IT'S ON THE DASH, AND I WAS THE ONLY ONE IN THE CAR, AND HAD NO ITEMS IN THE CAR EITHER. FOR THE RECORD, WHILE FEMALE, I GREW UP RACING CARS, HAVE CHANGED MY OWN ENGINE, TURBO, TRANSMISSION, SHOCKS, SPRINGS, ETC. THESE TWO SEAT AND TOP PROCESSES ARE MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE SO THEN NEITHER WOULD WORK. CLEARLY UP THEY GREATLY IMPACT VISIBILITY PLUS THE TOP WILL NOT GO UP. SECONDLY TO GET THE TOP OVER THE HEADRESTS, ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL IT'S IMPOSSIBLE, BUT SAID ANOTHER WAY, IT'S A FOUR PERSON JOB. GIVEN THE LIMITED VISIBILITY OF THE CABRIOLET TOP UP ANYWAY, ADDING THE RAISED HEADRESTS, NOW IT'S A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE TOP BLOCKS 2/5 OF THE VISIBILITY. THE HEADRESTS UP BLOCK 2/5 OF THE VISIBILITY. ALL THAT IS LEFT IS THE 1/5 BETWEEN THEM - A VERY NARROW RANGE OF VIEW. AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT IS.THEY SAY WHEN THEY DEPLOY FALSELY IT'S LIKE AIRBAGS AND THEY CANNOT JUST GO BACK DOWN AND THEY REPLACE A NUMBER OF THESE. IF THIS IS SUPPOSED TO DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER OR ACCIDENT, FOR THIS TO DEPLOY WITHOUT HITTING ANYTHING, YET TO IMPACT VISIBILITY WITH NO WAY TO RETURN TO NORMAL VISIBILITY OR PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE ELEMENTS
OPENED DOOR AND GOT IN CAR TO CLOSE AND PULLING HANDLE THE HANDLE BROKE OFF. WENT TO MERCEDES TO ORDER PART AND THEY SAID IT WAS A WEAK PART AND HAVE TO ORDER FROM GERMANY. *TR
4 of 4 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
