Mercedes benz states that it does not have parts available for a fuel line leaking problem which is subject to an outstanding NHTSA recall number 18v837. Mercedes benz (877 762-8267) has not identified a schedule for the acquisition of the necessary parts or resolution of the problem. Mercedes benz does not have a sense of urgency in the resolution of this problem and has stated that they would only send me a letter in the future on the availability of parts. Fuel line leaks can be deadly and, minimally, Mercedes benz should have an interim resolution plan with dates to assure safety which also includes an expedited contact method. *tr

This Mercedes Metris is my wife's primary vehicle. She had the electric power steering stop working twice in six weeks. Each time the vehicle became barely controllable. Both times it happened on curvy mountain roads and she was barely able to keep control of the vehicle and is now afraid to drive it. We took it into the local Mercedes dealership twice and spent over a $1,000 the first time to remedy the problem. The second time they recommended replacing the steering rack at a cost of $5,000. We were six years into a seven year warranty with 92,000 miles on the vehicle. The dealership pulled a fast one on us and managed to work their way out of having to cover the warranty repairs. I investigated the problem, have found there are other Metris's with the same issues and am starting to be

I was driving in a very remote location in central Utah on a paved Utah state highway and I crossed a cattle guard at about 45 mph. Immediately after crossing the cattle guard, the power steering malfunctioned, an alarm sounded and this message in bright orange appeared on the instrument panel display “Power Steering Malfunction. See Owners Manual". I immediately pulled over and stopped the vehicle. Luckily, I had cell service, so I called my Mercedes-Benz dealership and talked to someone in the service department and I also called my mechanic at an independent Mercedes-Benz shop. After these phone calls and I concluded that it would not harm the power steering system to drive, I decided to continue driving -- without power steering assist. It was hard to steer, but not unsafe on the rura

Dealer says that Power Steering control unit/steering rack needs to be changed. Looks like same recall was there(17V-595) but my vin number is not in Mercedes system to be fixed. Happens when park. Steering was not working, van needs to be towed. Can you check if that should be part of recall?

Uneven tread wear of left front tire. (corporate claims my vehicle is not affected since the technical service bulletin is not pulled up by my VIN, but my tire proves otherwise.)

The tires have worn out to the metal after 5000 miles as the alignment was per the service tech - sent out incorrectly at the factory- the vehicle was kept for over 30 days.. Judging from user forums this seems to be happening on a frequent basis

I have been trying for 5 months to get this fixed from the dealer and or manufacturer.They still state they dont have the parts or something . Its been to long and this is a serious safety hazrd to not be able to use the back up camera correctly . We are not even using the vehicle at this time .

I have had 2 major and costly repairs/issues with the engine and its oil system. These are detailed below. I have also received multiple collision or seatbelt dash alerts when no one is near my vehicle whatsoever. Unexpected repairs back-to-back due to defective parts/design: Oil pump control valve and harness replaced. Cost: $1,499. Replaced crankcase ventilation hose assembly. Cost: $3,293.37

Safety inspection of tires are showing abnormal and rapid tread wear focused on the outside facing section of tread on all four tires. While the section of tread on the inside facing section is near factory new. The vehicle was bought factory new and this is on the original set of tires. Mileage at this time is still below 25,000 as it is driven sparingly. Despite that All four corners exhibit rapid and uneven wear of the tread indicating an alignment issue from the factory. The vehicle has never been in any colision nor curbed even once. Owner research on various Metris forums show this is not an isolated issue. Many point to an error in factory parameters regarding camber as well as a excessive toe in.

Vehicle experienced Crankcase ventilation component failure at low miles of 31,750. Code thrown is P052E resulting in needing replacement of a large assembly of emissions/oil vapor control tubing and valves costing over $1000 plus over 12 hours of labor. Well known problem on Mercedes vehicles with the M274 2.0 turbo 4cylinder engine.
