Check engine light on my 2015 MB GLA250 4matic came on and the error is "P052E PCV Regulator Valve Performance". There is a recall for other MB vehicle with the same engine. I believe the 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 and other models with the same engine should be included in the recall.

Same part had been recalled from all other models but not my model. It's the same part being used across Mercedes and they won't sale the valve and force customers like me there are thousands other to spent $2700 plus to replace whole system. Should have been recalled since it's same valve that may be using across all vehicles. Failed the emission test which is a big problem they should have addressed.

They had recall of this part which is valve in all other models except for this one. My vehicle failed VEIP test due to faulty valve and required assistance from the dealer but they refused to provide solutions and asked to pay $2700 and $230 diagnosis fee when we already had code which showed which part and which is recalled in all other Mercedes vehicles with 150000 milage warranty. We cannot just replace valve they are forcing to replace whole assembly causing problems for many owners like me. My vehicle has only 36k milage. If same valve is faulty which creates environmental hazard that should be recalled in all models from same manufacturer Instead of forcing ripping customers with high cost and environmental risk.

All MB GLA and CLA 2015 cars have a common issue "CRANKCASE VENTILATION VALVE" which should be replaced a few times for the cars. Each service will cost at least $2000.00. Please ask MB to recall their cars and fix this issue.

When it first started to malfunction, my car would suddenly loose power out of nowhere and pretty much stop wherever. It's done it when I was crossing a busy intersection and it stalled right in the middle of the road causing other cars to have to stop or go around me. It has also stopped while I was driving on the freeway. I didn't even have enough power or momentum to pull off to a safe lane and almost caused an accident and several times while I was driving up a narrow two way road in the mountains. Later down the road my check engine light came on and I got the code p205e, Crankshaft ventilation breather hose is clogged, then my car lost power for good. It has been parked for almost a year now because I can't afford the repair and I am still paying car payments and insurance on it

On September 7th, 2023 while I was on the fastest lane driving to work in the morning on I 10 fwy, the car shut down without any prior warning. Couldn't even put it in neutral. Called 911 and a cop called the towing service to take the car out of the fwy. Mercedes Benz Ontario dealer diagnostics says it's due to a fuel pump failure. I see a same issue recall, but not for my model. Mercedes should check if my model sold also has a similar fuel pump failure issue. It's very dangerous to stop without any warning.

The factory fuel rubber inlet hose going to the high pressure fuel pump leaks in cold weather conditions. Multiple dealerships and online forums are aware of this fuel leak but a recall has not been issued to have the hose and clamp replaced.

PASSANGER SIDE AIRBAGS SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED BUT NOT SURE ABOUT REST. I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAGS DID WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BUT THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS AND WITH MY INSURANCE AND TITLE HOLDER (CAR LOAN). THE DRIVER HAD SKIN LACERATIONS FROM AIRBAG AND I DN'T KNOW WHAT WENT OFF WHERE AND HAVE MEMORY LOSS SO THE INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD BE BETTER ABLE TO ASESS.
