This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I purchased my 2007 Mercedes Benz ML350 on 10/11/14 on 10/24/14 I began having problems with what seemed to the shifting of gears. When trying to slowly excel from either a complete stop or a slow crawl it seems as though the car would not move, it was having a problem automatically shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and back down from 3rd to 2nd. This has happened several times and has occurred while in traffic endangering my and my families lives. After speaking to a mechanic, he has stated that this seems to be continual problem with this vehicle and should be made part of a recall! the cost to fix is approximately $5,000 in which I do not have after spending so much for this vehicle to begin with! I ask that you help to get Mercedes Benz to right this wrong. This is not right, they are ripping consumers off and putting our lives at risk. Thank you!
Engine light came on. Take to repair shop, crank sensor bad, changed crank sensor, light came on back, O2 sensor bad, changed O2 sensor, light came back on, finally said worn sprackett in engine sending false reading. Steering pump went bad at 59000. Ac pump pulley broke off at 54,000 miles. Ac/heat comes on by itself, even when vehicle is turn off.
Car stalls unexpectedly at low speeds without any warning. There is no computer record that the dealer can find on the car to confirm any failure but this has happened repeatedly with different drivers.
