2010 MERCEDES BENZ C300 Air Bags Problems

Got a car from the dealer soon weeks after the rear subframe was so corroded alignment was able to get done and was snapped on both sides airbag light came on doesn’t go away and the rear right brake like started using the fog light as a turn signal

Due to the corrosion in the rear subframe both side of lower control arms snapped the tires to the car are wearing out due to the corrosion in rear subframe and it’s was also hitting my gas tank if I was to go over any holes which can cause a bigger issue

While i have a few recalls i plan on needing service from Mercedes for, I just found out that Mercedes has a Class action lawsuit involving my C class mercedes C300 from 2010-2022 years. I was driving and ran into a pothole. My car rear started making noise and sounds. I went to the auto shop amd was told my rear subframe was damaged and would cost over 2,000. I and putting in a complaint to make sure Mercedes honor this recall/ extended warranty for my vehicle.

Passenger side front airbag reports as inoperable.

I purchased the vehicle in 2010 & immediately had to have the electrical system for all lights replaced. The lights on the vehicle goes out every 2 mos as if theres an electrical issue. Air bags had a recall & have been replaced now the system states there is a malfunction. This started 09/08/22.

Airbags did not deploy after rear-ending another car. Airbags had been recalled and repaired at the Mercedes dealership. There weren't any lights on the dashboard at the time.

Mileage: 93,000

TAKATA RECALL SEEMS THERE IS NO SOLUTION FOR THIS ISSUE. WANT TO GET THIS ISSUE REPAIRED PRIOR TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR OTHER EVENT WHICH WILL CAUSE THE AIR BAGS TO INFLATE.

TAKATA RECALL, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO THE VEHICLE AS YET, BUT CONTACTED THE DEALER TO GET AIRBAG REPLACED AND THEY ARE SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE AIRBAG AND WE WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY RISK AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE TO FIX SOMETHING THAT COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THANK YOU

SOMETHING SO SERIOUS IN MY CAR THAT CAN POTENTIAL IMPACT MY FAMILY AN I IS UNACCEPTABLE AND SHOULD BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY.

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE MADE APPOINTMENTS AND HAVE DISCUSSED THE SITUATION WITH PATTERSON IN WICHITA FALLS TX ABOUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT SAYING THERE IS A PROBLEM.

THE LIGHT STAYS ON. HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO BE REPAIRED AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. STATED WHEN THEY ARE TOLD WHAT TO DO PATERSON'S WILL CONTACT ME. I HAVE NEVER BEEN CONTACTED.

THE AUTO MANUFACTURER DID NOT PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO MY CALL TO THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER.

TAKATA AIRBAGS DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE HAVE BEEN ON RECALL SINCE BEFORE FEBRUARY 2016. THE CAR LIVES IN HOUSTON, TEXAS, ONE OF THE MOST HUMID CLIMATES IN THE COUNTRY. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. ON THE CONTRARY, BASED ON SEVERAL DISCUSSIONS AND CALLS TO TWO LOCAL DEALERSHIPS, I FEEL LIKE NOTHING WILL EVER BE DONE. MY WIFE AND I ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS AND HAVE HAD THEM DISCONNECTED.

TAKATA RECALL - MERCEDES BENZ HAS FAILED TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. ATTACHED ARE LETTERS FROM THEM AND FURTHER DISCUSSION WITH THEIR EXEC DEPT, THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHEN THEY WILL REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. HOW LONG CAN THEY JUST KEEP DELAYING THIS SAFETY REPAIR AND HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE WILL DIE DUE TO THEIR NONCHALANT ATTENTION TO THIS MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM. NO CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THESE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL - I CALLED MY LOCAL MERCEDES BENZ SERVICE MANAGER TO ASK ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. HE STATED "I DON'T KNOW WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE". THE SAFETY OF MY WIFE AND CHILDREN IN THE MERCEDES IS MY TOP PRIORITY. HOW CAN I FEEL SAFE DRIVING A CAR THAT IS KNOWN TO HAVE DEFECTIVE PARTS, THAT MIGHT MAIM OR EVEN TAKE THE LIFE OF ONE OF MY LOVED ONES. SHAME ON MERCEDES BENZ FOR NOT MAKING THIS A HIGHER PRIORITY.

TAKATA INFLATORS: MERCEDES CONTINUES TO STATE THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM MBUSA 6-8 MONTHS AGO, AND HAVE GOTTEN NO RESPONSE FROM MY LOCAL DEALER WHO ONLY KNOWS THAT THIS RECALL, TO HIS KNOWLEDGE, IS ON HOLD, AND NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. HOW CAN THAT BE POSSIBLE? IF A CAR IS IN A CRASH AND THE AIRBAG INFLATOR DEPLOYS, DOES IT NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE? I AM CONCERNED, AND HAVE NO FAITH IN THE CORPORATE LOBBYISTS AND FAT CATS THAT CUT CORNERS FOR PROFITS. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED, BECAUSE I AM HANDICAPPED, AND HAVE AN EXTREMELY BAD BACK, AND WORRY THAT INCORRECT DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG WOULD FURTHER DAMAGE MY SPINE, AND CAUSE ME TO GO TO A WHEELCHAIR FROM MY CANE, OR WORSEN THE NUMBNESS AND MY INABILITY TO GET AROUND. THIS SHOULD BE YOUR CONCERN AS WELL, BECAUSE I HAVE CONTACTED AN ATTORNEY WHO IS WILLING TO TAKE MY CASE FOR A PERCENTAGE OF THE SETTLEMENT, IF WE DECIDE TO SETTLE, OR ACCEPT THE COURT MANDATED FEE HE WOULD BE ENTITLED TO. MY ENTIRE LUMBAR AND SACRAL SPINE ARE COMPROMISED BYE DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE, SCOLIOSIS, MULTIPLE SPINAL SENOSES AND MORE

TAKATA RECALL- MY SON IS ABOUT TO GET HIS LICENSE ON JULY 11TH, HE WILL BE 16 ON JULY 6TH. WE BOUGHT HIM THIS MERCEDES BACK IN MARCH 2016. I AM AFRAID FOR HIM TO DRIVE IT WITH THE DEATH AND INJURIES TAKATA AIRBAGS HAVE CAUSE PEOPLE. HOWEVER, WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RECALL NOTICE TO GET IT REPAIRED/REPLACED. I CALLED MERCEDES WITH NO ANSWER FOR ME. I AM SCARED FOR HIS LIFE, HE IS A NEW DRIVER AND IF HE HITS SOMETHING AND THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS HE COULD DIE. THIS IS THE MOST INSANE THING I HAVE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH. I NEED AN ANSWER BETTER THAN I WILL GET A RECALL NOTICE FOR REPAIR/REPLACEMENT IN THE NEXT YEAR OR TWO. THIS IS URGENT. THIS IS MY SON'S LIFE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT AND I CAN NOT AFFORD TO GET RID OF THE CAR NOW!! I FEEL THIS CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SOLD WITHOUT IT BEING FIXED FIRST.
