MY NEW 2011 MERCEDES C300 2500 MILES IN. THE FRONT ROTORS WARPED. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WHEN YOU APPLY BRAKES. THIS ISSUE WAS CONFIRMED BY FLETCHER JONES MERCEDES BENZ OF NEWPORT BEACH CALIFORNIA. MERCEDES CORPORATE AND FLETCHER JONES MERCEDES DENIED BY REQUEST TO REPLACE. THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. THIS IS MY SECOND NEW MERCEDES IN 3 YEARS AND LIKELY MY LAST. *TR
1 of 1 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.
