On 4/13/25 while driving my car on the highway, along with my 2 young children, I began to hear what initally sounded like a "flapping" noise. I rolled the windows down and after a minute or 2 the sound got lounder. There was never a warning or any type of safety icon that appeared on the control panel, nor any driving performance issue before hand. Shortly after the initial noise I could tell the car was struggling to accelerate. I wasn't near an exit during this time and began to panic in fear the car would shut down and I had no safe place t…

In addition to the warning light, I have repeatedly expressed my concerns about a loud creaking noise coming from the wheel area while driving, turning the corner, pulling in and out of driveway, etc. However, South Bay Mercedes is never able to duplicate the noise or identity the warning.

I was driving home on a residential street at approximately 30 MPH. I heard a loud pop or bang sound coming from the top middle area of my windshield. I checked for any windshield damage, observed none. I thought the whole noise strange as nothing had hit my car or windshield. A couple days later I noticed that the glass panel between the windshield and sunroof, was completely shattered, with a horizontal crack running across the panel. I also noticed that the framing between the panel and windshield was not right. It sort of was "popped" …

I purchased my car in April of this year 2022 and have driven less than 10K miles. The tread of my front two tires has already worn down to less than 3/32 compared to the rear wheel 6/32. Driving conditions are normal and according to Mercedes this is known issue. This exceeds normal wear and tear and should be a safety concern.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
