There is a service recall campaign for my model car but dealer/mercedes usa doesn't have the recall linking my car to it from my VIN. Campaign number is P-RC-2021070010. It is to replace the front stationary sunroof panel because it may not have been bonded correctly and could fly off and hit someone. My vehicle did have this same part rattle in 2017 during a cross-country trip.

The panoramic sunroof failed to close after it was opened. I attempted to close the sunroof after use and it stayed open. This is concerning as debris could have flown into the car and impaired operation. Another concern is the short-circuiting/fire risk of the internal wiring and components in the event of rain. We took the car to the dealership where an associate told us that this is a common problem with CLA class cars. This was the only inspection of the car thus far. There were no messages or warnings prior to the failure.

We received a recall notice advising that the stationary roof panel located between the windshield and sunroof was not bonded correctly and could full detach from the vehicle. while driving on the freeway I heard a wind noise coming from the roof and then without warning the roof panel flew off the vehicle onto the freeway lanes. The piece was not recovered due to the danger of stopping on freeway. This posed an immediate safety threat to us and other drivers. When I contacted Mercedes (both local dealer and MBUSA) I was told they would not honor the recall since it is still in pending not open. Nowhere is a time frame listed on recall and I did confirm with local MB they have the parts needed to replace this piece. MB only option was we have to pay for the repair (apprx $1500-1900) and "possibly" receive a reimbursement. The letter specifically states free of charge to complete this recall. I was given a possible time the recall goes to open in Aug or Oct, but no guaranty. As of now my vehicle has an open roof section.

"takata recall" the driver was killed in a car accident on March 21st 2018 and the car was on a recall. The accident was at ockechobee road, miami, fl with 11th street. The car was in motion. The driver received a letter from Mercedes-Benz in November 2017 stating that the car had an insufficient electrical grounding in the steering column components and that this could lead to an inadvertent deployment of the driver airbag causing a risk of a potential crash, but that unfortunately the remedy was not available yet. Despite of this, the driver took the car to a mercedez-bens dealer in the same month, on November 29th 2017, and nothing was made about the problem. The accident was tragic. It was at 2:40pm and two minutes before 2:38pm the driver spoke to his wife and everything was well. Also the autopsy didn't show anything wrong with his healthy conditions. He was an amazing father, husband and very calm person. A part of the investigations shows that there is no break marks on the floor, which shows that the drive lost the control of the car. His son (16) was in the car with him and had a lot of injuries and still is recovering. Because all of this evidences, I believe that the airbag deployed on his face causing him to loose control of the car.
