EXTREMELY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE WHEN TANK IS FILLED, MERCEDES BENZ RECALLED 2011 AND 2012 MODEL YEAR GLK350 VEHICLES FOR A FUEL LEAK BUT DID NOT RECALL MODEL YEAR 2010 GLK350 VEHICLES. THE SAME RECALL IS NECESSARY FOR MODEL YEAR 2010 GLK 350 VEHICLES.

THE VEHICLE IS A MERCEDES BENZ DEALERSHIP IN RALEIGH, NC ON CAPITAL BLVD BECAUSE IT WILL NOT START. THERE'S A STEERING LOCK PROBLEM AND I WAS TOLD THAT ONLY CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS IS COVERED FOR THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. MY VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SAME RECALL (STARTED JAN 25, 2019) BEING IT'S HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AT THE SAME TIME AS THE OTHER VEHICLES. THE VEHICLE WAS AT CAPITAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAD IT TOWED TO MERCEDES BENZ DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD IT WOULDN'T START. CAPITAL CHEVROLET SAID THAT THE MERCEDES DEALERSHIP SAID IT COULD HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND ANYWHERE. I WAS TOLD THE COST IS ON ME. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THERES A RECALL ON MY YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL BUT NOT MY VEHICLE WHICH IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE SAME ISSUE. CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHY THIS VERY LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND MYSELF AND MY GRANDCHILDREN COULD LOSE OUR LIVES IF IT HAPPENED WITH US WHILE OCCUPYING THE VEHICLE, WHO WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECALL AND OUR LIVES?

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER 3 YEARS FOR THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF TIME TO WAIT FOR THE REPAIR OF SUCH A DANGEROUS SAFETY PROBLEM. THOUGH TAKATA MADE THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG, MERCEDES BENZ SOLD THE VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR REPAIRING THE DEFECT IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. THAT TIME HAS ALREADY PASSED. IN A RECENT LETTER MERCEDES INDICATED THAT "[MY] SAFETY IS OF UTMOST CONCERN TO MERCEDES BENZ". MB SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SELL ANOTHER NEW VEHICLE IN THE UNITED STATES UNTIL THEY HAVE RELIED THE POTENTIAL DANGEROUS OF ALL DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS INSTALLED IN THEIR VEHICLES.

TAKATA RECALL NO FIX IN 9 YEARS?

"TAKATA RECALL" THE FIRST RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE #16V081 WAS DATED 02/11/2016. I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICES IN 2016/2017 WHICH I HAVE SINCE DESTROYED THAT SAID PARTS WERE EXPECTED IN 2017. I RECEIVED A 3RD NOTICE IN DEC 2017 STATING I WAS PRIORITY GROUP 4 WITH PARTS EXPECTED IN MAR 2108. THAT WAS FOLLOWED BY ONE IN JAN 2108 CHANGING ME TO PRIORITY GROUP 6 WITH EXPECTED PARTS IN SEPT 2018. TODAY I RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE, FEB 2019, CHANGING IT FROM A NHTSA RECALL TO A MBUSA RECALL # 2019010001 - PHASE 4, WITH NO EXPECTED PARTS DATE, BUT THEIR WEBSITE SAYS SEP 2019. THIS RECALL WAS ALMOST 3 YEARS AGO AND MERCEDES BENZ SEEMS TO BE DRAGGING THEIR FEET. WHAT DOES THE GOVERNMENT CONSIDER A "REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME"? MERCEDES BENZ IS MAKING AND SELLING CARS EVERYDAY WITH OK AIRBAGS. WHY IS THE GOVERNMENT ALLOWING ME TO DRIVE EVERYDAY WITH A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG THAT MAY CAUSE A DEATH AND ALLOW MERCEDES BENZ TO PUT THIS OFF?.

TAKATA RECALL I OWN A 2010 MERCEDES GLK 350 AND WAS FIRST NOTIFIED BY MERCEDES BACK IN MAY OF 2016 WITH AN ANTICIPATED REPAIR DATE OF SEPTEMBER 2017. THAT WAS THEN CHANGED TO MARCH 2018 AND THEN SEPTEMBER 2018. THE LATEST INFORMATION NOW STATES SEPTEMBER 2019 AND I HAVE NO FAITH THAT IT WILL BE COMPLETED BY THEN. I FIND THIS DEPLORABLE AND CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ACCEPTS THIS CONTINUOUS PUSHBACK OF REPAIRS

TAKATA AIRBAGS, PRIORITY GROUP 6: I BELIEVE MERCEDES BENZ IS DRAGGING ITS FEET IN MAKING THESE REPAIRS. I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL LETTERS DATING BACK TO 2017. EACH ONE PROVIDES A DATE WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE AND THE DATES COME AND GO. THE LAST DATE PROVIDED WAS TO BE SEPTEMBER 30, 2018. WHEN I CALLED MB TODAY, THEY TOLD ME THE DATE HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL SEPTEMBER OF 2019! THAT IS ONE YEAR AWAY. THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND COMPLETE THESE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK THE CAR SMELLS AND LEAKS GAS. HOWEVER, THE LEAKS STOPS AFTER FEW HOURS. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MERCEDES REPAIR SHOP, THEY TOLD ME THEY NEED TO CHANGE A UNIT AND THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR MERCEDES. AFTER SPENDING $450, THE PROBLEM CAME BACK A MONTH LATER. NOW, THEY ARE SAYING, I NEED TO CHANGE ANOTHER FUEL UNIT WHICH WILL COST ME AN ADDITION $650!

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN CALLING MY DEALERSHIP SINCE I GOT A NOTICE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I CANNOT GET AN ANSWER AS TO WHEN THEY INTEND TO REPLACE THEM. THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, AND ARE EVASIVE WHEN YOU QUESTION THEM. MOREOVER THE PERRILLI TIRES ON MY CAR ARE CONSTANTLY GOING FLAT. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 13 TIRES. AND MY CAR HAS ONLY 44,000 MILES. THEY BLOW UP WHILE I AM DRIVING...IT'S NEVER A SLOW LEAK.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CONTACTED MERCEDES 5 TIMES IN REGARDS TO FIXING THE AIR BAG ISSUE, I HAVE A SENSOR ON THE DASH BOARD THAT TELLS ME MY AIR BAG IS MALFUNCTIONING. MERCEDES HAS TOLD ME THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS, I CAN COME IN AND THEY WILL TURN THE SENSOR OFF AND CHARGE ME FOR THE LABOR. THEY SENT ME NOTIFICATION TELLING ME IT WAS AFFECTED. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 2 YEARS.

STEERING COLUMN MODULE ELECTRICAL CAUSING THE CAR INOPERATIVE. I TURNED THE IGNITION AND NO SOUND. THE DASHBOARD DID NOT LIGHT UP. I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TOWED BECAUSE THE WHEEL LOCKED. I HAD TO REQUEST A TOW THAT HANDLES THIS TYPE OF ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CALLED THE ORLAND PARK, ILL DEALER REPEATEDLY & AM TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART. AS MY HOME IS UP FOR SALE & I HOPE TO MOVE TO HOT SPRINGS, ARK, I WOULD LIKE THIS RECALL REMEDIED ASAP. THANK YOU.

I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS EFFECTED BY THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL IN 2017. I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES LATELY SAYING MY REPLACEMENT WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN MARCH 2018 THEN CHANGED TO SEP 2018. IT HAS NOW BEEN CHANGED TO SEP 2019. MY PRIORITY GROUP WAS CHANGED FROM 4 TO 6. HOW LONG DO THEY NEED.

TAKATA RECALL - MERCEDES BENZ HAS REPEATEDLY PUSHED THE DATE BACK FOR THE REPAIR ON MY VEHICLE, WHICH IS HOUSED IN "ZONE A" (CALIFORNIA) AND IS THE OLDEST MODEL YEAR THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED (2010 GLK 350). DESPITE ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT THEM TO GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE DELAY AND MY RISK OF INJURY, THEY HAVE NOT PROVIDED ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

TAKAYUKI RECALL. I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY MERCEDES BENZ (MB) OF THIS RECALL BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. MB HAS SENT ME MULTIPLE DATES FOR THE RECALL FIX BUT HAVE ALWAYS EXTENDED THOSE DATES. THE LAST FIX DATE WAS SEPT 2018 BUT THEIR RECALL WEB SITE NOW STATES THE FIX DATE IS SEPT 2019. THIS IS 3 YEARS PAST NOTIFICATION AND I AM UNABLE TO TRADE OR SELL THIS CAR DUE TO IT BEING UNDER THIS RECALL. OTHER CAR MANUFACTURERS HAVE CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM AND ADVISED THEIR CUSTOMERS NOT TO DRIVE THEIR CARS UNTIL THEY WERE FIXED. I CONTINUE TO HAVE TO RELY ON MY CAR AS I AM NOW RETIRED AND HAVE NO OTHER OPTION. 3 YEARS OF DRIVING A CAR THAT THE SALES MANAGER FOR MERCEDES BENZ CALLED A "DEATH TRAP" IS 3 YEARS TOO LONG. WHY HAVE OTHER CAR MANUFACTURERS COMPLETED THEIR RECALL AND NOT MB? DO I HAVE TO DIE BEFORE I GET THIS RECALL FIXES? WHAT IS THIS AGENCY GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS REDICULOUS AMOUNT OF TIME?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK350. WHILE FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK, FUEL LEAKED OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT EITHER THE FUEL PUMP OR THE TANK WAS CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 91,574.

TAKATA RECALL, I AM TRYING VAIN TO GET THIS SERIOUS ISSUE FIXED BUT THE DEALERS ARE TELLING ME THEY CAN'T AND THAT TAKATA IS WAY BEHIND IN SUPPLYING THE DEALERSHIPS AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS. IN THE MEANTIME IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT I COULD BE KILLED. THE DEALERSHIP IS TAFEL MOTORS IN LOUISVILLE KY.

I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AND NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS AS SOON AS I GOT OUT OF THE CAR. AFTER BEING IN THE HOUSE APPROXIMATELY 2 HOURS, THE SMELL OF GAS FILLED THE HOUSE. I PULLED THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE GARAGE AND IT CREATED A TRAIL OF GAS INSIDE THE GARAGE. MBUSA REFUSED TO COVER THE REPAIR AND ALSO REFUSED TO DISCLOSE INFORMATION RELATED TO THIS ISSUE WHEN I REQUESTED MORE INFORMATION FROM THE CUSTOMER REFERRAL REPRESENTATIVE. I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S NOT SAFE TO JUST HAVE FUEL BEING TRAILED UP AND DOWN HIGHWAYS AND EVERYONE IS UNAWARE. HOPEFULLY THEY CAN BE FINED FOR ENDANGERING PEOPLE.

THIS LAST TWO WEEKS, WE NOTICED THAT THERE'S A STRONG SMELL OF GAS. THERE'S NO LEAK THAT WE COULD SEE BUT THE ODOR IS STRONG THAT GIVES US HEADACHES. WE ARE DOING A RESEARCH ON WHY THIS IS HAPPENING BUT THE ONLY THING WE SEE ABOUT IT ONLINE IS ABOUT THE LINK BETWEEN GAS TANKS AND GAS FILTER. PLEASE HELP.

TAKATA RECALL - AIRBAGS

TAKATA RECALL - FOR OVER 2 YEARS, I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE MERCEDES BENZ-HONOLULU REPLACE THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AS PER THE RECALL NOTICES I RECEIVE APPROXIMATELY EVERY 6 MONTHS FROM MERCEDES-BENZ USA. EACH TIME, I AM TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. RECENTLY, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ATTEMPTED TO TAKE THE RECALL NOTICE FROM ME AND TELL ME THE RECALL WAS EXPIRED. UPON FURTHER INSISTENCE, I WAS AGAIN TOLD THAT THE PART IS NOT IN AND THE NOTICES ARE BEING SENT BY MERCEDES USA AS REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW BUT THERE ARE NO PARTS. THEREFORE, THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH AN ETA BECAUSE NEWER VEHICLES ARE THE PRIORITY AND AT THIS TIME THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL RECEIVE THE PARTS TO REPLACE THE TAKATA AIRBAGS.
