I first noticed an issue with the alignment. The vehicle would always pull to the left. After 3 different alignment procedures, it remind the same. I started noticing a clunking sound when I would brake. While driving I hit a moderate pothole and the car lurched side to side, causing me to lose control. It was fortunate that I was on a surface street, and that I was only traveling about 35 mph. I almost struck the vehicle next to me, but my quick reflex prevented it. I limped the car, going 15-20 mph with hazards on, to my mechanic. He called me the next day informing me that I had a complete rear subframe failure. I researched and found that Mercedes, had extended the warranty on all models of the same year but my model was not included. Numerous mercedes of the same year and model are having the same issue. This is an EXTREMELY and dangerous issue that Mercedes need to address. Others my not be so fortunate as I was to have been on a surface road under speed. I would not have been able to control the vehicle had I been traveling at highway speed.

HVAC mold smell, the car smells like ($#!*) whenever I use ac or heat. Tried like changing 10's of cabin filter, but that smell makes me sick all the time. Checked with all the mechanics, they only say its a manufacturer issue.

Engine motor mounts are constructed of untreated aluminum. It is well known that salt will react easily with aluminum, extensive corrosion results. The driver side motor mount sits in a pocket in the frame, where brine can lay on it for prolonged periods. Of note, many highway departments are now using a brine mix, including magnesium chloride, that will react with moisture in the air to continue the corrosion process. A recent study by Volkswagen confirms that this accelerates the corrosion process. In April or may of this year, I had to have the motor mounts on my car replaced. One failed completely, the other was severely cracked and nearly the same way. The entire top of the driver side mount was completely missing, apparently from corrosion. What was left was white powder. The passenger side also showed evidence of significant corrosion. The mechanic who worked on my car said that this was a known problem, and not the first he had seen. I am extremely concerned about this. A complete failure of motor mounts could cause a severe accident, with wiring and or fuel lines being sheared, and loss of control of the vehicle. The breakage would be likely to occur upon acceleration (think about entering an intersection) or when going over a bump. A complaint was filed with Mercedes corporate offices. I explained that I was not looking for any kind of financial settlement. I am not. I would like the problem addressed. It has been a few months now with no response. This situation is not acceptable.
