The tow hook and strap used when necessary to tow a car and that is stowed under the car or behind the rear bumper and accessed through a small door on the bumper spontaneously deployed while I was driving. It flew up against the side of the car, causing minor damage, damaged and partially dislodged the rear bumper, and the hook embedded in the right rear tire, causing it to go flat. I am waiting to learn whether there is additional damage to the underside of the car such as to a brake line. The parts are available for inspection. This is not a problem to be reproduced! I have photos showing the car and the hook in my tire. The only warning light appeared after the tire started losing pressure, but the thump sound as the hook and strap hit my car, and as the tire rotated and drove over the

The car shakes, vibrates and has rough idling. My engines stalls when it is at low rpm. I am afraid that if this is not fixed a fuel leak could occur in the presence of an ignition source, such as hot engine or exhaust components, which could increase the risk of a fire

Three open recalls for over a year with no remedy.
While driving the car shuts off and unable to restart. It will turn over but not remain started enough to move the vehicle. I did notice it jerk when speed was increased a few times before. Fuel pump was replaced less than a year ago according to Mercedes in Tuscaloosa Alabama. . After a certified Mercedes mechanic inspected the vehicle I was told it was the fuel pump once again. $4000+ later and I am having the same issue. Very frustrating to be stranded with my kids in the car.
There are no problems with the vehicle but this recall listed on the NHTSA is preventing me from listing my vehicle on Turo.

While driving 50 to 60 MPH, the steering wheel shook and the lane departure system prevented the contact from changing lanes. An icon illuminated on the instrument panel, indicating that the vehicle was leaving the road. Also, the vehicle made an abnormal noise and the brakes engaged with a loud noise and canceled the lane change.

On 03/10/23, I contacted the Mercedes-Benz service department regarding the black screen on the driver's side display. The Mercedes-Benz service personnel informed me that the screen needed to be replaced, with an estimated cost of around $2000. I agreed to their suggestion and authorized the replacement. Later, the Mercedes-Benz service personnel contacted me again, stating that the black screen issue was not resolved and recommended replacing the computer mainframe, which would cost over $6500. I refused their suggestion as the cost exceeded what I was willing to pay. When I went to pick up my car from the Mercedes-Benz dealership, I noticed that the central control display screen was also blacked out. I confronted them about it, and they admitted that they were responsible for the dama
The display screen of the driver's seat was damaged due to the automatic update last month. The dealer told me to replace the display screen for US$2,000. After I agreed to pay, I was told that the central control display screen was broken again and needed to be replaced for nearly US$7,000. I refused the dealer. However, the central control display screen was still good originally. Now the main driver does not have a display screen, and even the central control screen is damaged. The central control screen is damaged due to their operation. How should I protect my rights in this situation?
