Granny ditches the Lexus.

A little background -I'm 76. Kids told me to ditch my 2006 Lexus 330. They told me, however, that they wanted me not to run back to Lexus to replace. They wanted me to "blow their inheritance" on myself. Well you can imagine that really opened up a LOT of options. After a long two days of looking I ended up buying the 2015 MB C300. It just checked all of the important things for me, ride, handling, safety, technology and looks. The price was a bonus. It cost me under $50K. I could easily afford well over that no problem and pay cash. But why? This car has everything I need. Why spend more? I want to have fun while in my car and so should you!

Do not have a CPO warranty problem!

Our 1st Mercedes! Wow! Purchased June 16, 2018. A CPO Mercedes, 2015, C300! Maintained all requirements in order to keep our CPO warranty intact...which is valid through April 2022. During the month of February (this year) we noticed a noise emanating from the right front of our Mercedes...an abrading noise...that seemed to coincide with wheel speed. We made a service appointment with Crown Eurocars (Pinellas Park, FL) delivered our vehicle, obtained a "loaner", and asked Crown to advise us when they determined the cause of the noise. In a day we received input from Crown advising us that the CV boot was torn and leaking grease and may have caused other problems. We were also advised that once the technician had checked more closely we would be notified of the cost to be or not to be absorbed by our CPO warranty. At this point we had no doubt that the warranty would cover the cost of the repair. After all, we had all services up to date, the repair was drive related, etc. What could go wrong! The same day we were notified that the repair would not be covered by our warranty because Crown told us..."that's what Mercedes said, it's not covered". As well the repair would involve the replacement of the right front drive shaft! We contacted MBUSA and received emails advising us to discuss the problem (lack of warranty coverage) with the service manager. My wife discussed this with the service manager in person...his response was "well it just isn't covered but I'll try to find out more info for you and I'll let you know". That was two months ago, still no response! At this point we told Crown to proceed with the repair while the discussions continued. Cost? $1,657! To this day we have not been told why the $1,657 was not absorbed by our CPO warranty. The service writer told us "...it may be because Mercedes doesn't cover wear items and the CV boot is rubber so it wears". A Mercedes Benz with 60,000 should be expected to need new CV boots? Really? Further we were told that the replacement of the right front drive shaft was required because it was probably damaged due to the torn CV boot. We have since been told that MB experienced some difficulty with "clicking noises" from the drive rods and a redesign was designated in some instances. We will close by stating that we have also contacted a VP of MBUSA via the United States Postal Service and have received no response! An EXECUTIVE REFERRAL MANAGER has contacted us by email stating NOTHING other that we should call him. We have made phone contact on fourteen (14) occasions and still no response. So to potential buyers of new Mercedes and CPO Mercedes we say: 1) Read this review again 2) Take your warranty and use it for home and domestics urgent use! Last statement; I am not a genius, but I had worked in manufacturing for 40 years and am not a stranger to machining and materials.

I have had nothing but issues from the moment I leased this car. I can start with it almost locking my 2 year old daughter inside the car, mind you it was in the summer where it reaches 95 degrees on an average day here in south Florida. It locked up on its own with the keys inside sitting in the front seat along with my purse, cell phone and house keys, I was just about to place my daughter in her carseat when this happened. Mercedes charged me $150 on the spot to get it open. It had "malfunctioned" they told me. The gas cap door gets stuck not allowing you to open it to put gas in. I had to drive to the dealership with no gas to get them to open it. The sensors on the cars are faulty and will go off with noone else in the road, they said "yea that's a thing they do." Forget about brining a large item home in the trunk, the car will not drive with the trunk tied open, nor will it drive if the door is not closed all the way, but will allow my 2 year old to open the car door from the inside while driving!!! There are no safety features to notify you of a car in a lane next to you and it has plenty of blindspots. There are many days when the car would brake on it's own stopping short in traffic and me almost getting rear ended on several occasions. It is currently in the shop now because the cylinder in the engine has gone bad, and will need to replace the engine. The car hasn't even reached it's second birthday. They are telling me that it is due to "bad gas" from the gas station and I will have to go through my insurance and sue the gas station, because it is not covered under the warranty. The list goes on and on, but I would highly recommend not leasing or purchasing this car. I am so thankful that it is just a lease and I am out of the nightmare in a year.

I own a c 400 and over the last 18 months , I have had to replace 8 tires, 2 rims, and the front axles. Thank god for the tire warranty. I think they’re made of jello. It’s complete ridiculous. I’ve tried to get them to give me. A different brand but they won’t. I’m really inconvenient to have to go to the service constantly, but at least I’ve always got brand new tires. Wtf? I assume it’s because it so heavy???................2 & 1/2 yrs in and I’ve had 14 count em, 14 flat tires. Yay!!! Don’t let them put continental tires on.

Very good car. Comfortable, solid, responsive engine though only 4 cylinders and nice tight steering. Up to 35 mpg on highway. The electronics (radio, navigation etc) are overly complicated; controls are redundant, not useful. Early in our ownership there was a sudden cut-off of steering that was remedied by some computer adjustment. Everything works fine ever since.

Bought mine new in 2015, now trading in for an Audi Q5. Yes, it is zippy, especially in sport mode (which guzzles the premium-only gas) and it looks very nice. Required Mercedes maintenance is costly, and car runs great right after it, but after a while idling becomes more noisy and vibrates car. Brakes squeak when I back up on a slight decline (my driveway), seats are too narrow, my left knee is always resting on the door because of this; seats in the Volvo XC 90 and Audi Q5 more comfy, long drives in this car have me shifting about from discomfort. Gas cover is annoying - often struggle to close it after pumping gas. I have the rear wheel drive model, and when I turn passengers lean, maybe because it's not AWD? The infotainment is ridiculously complex and I probably only use 40% of what it offers because I won't read a thick manual. My husband and daughter get car sick in back seat of this and the SUV Mercedes, but not in Volvos, BMWs or Audis. Don't get the high-gloss wood - looks terrible except right after you've wiped it down, dust shows up a lot, and scratches easily with no way to buff out scratches. The analog clock is a total anachronism. Does anyone really write letters on the touch pad. Navigation is TEDIOUS and maps not up to date - I always use my phone instead. When I was rear-ended, cost to fix the car was $9K!! Airbags deployed when they shouldn't have.

I bought this car in 2018 with 32000 miles on it. It now has 73,000 miles. I took in for routine service and was told it needed $10,000 worth of work. I took it to another dealer that a friend recommended and was told it only needed $6000 worth of work. The car is only worth about $15000. I have owned about 20 cars - all makes and models and have never owned a vehicle that needed this kind of maintenance with so few miles. Actually - I've never had a car need these kinds of repairs - even with 150,000 miles. They say some of it is normal wear - well I guess it's not very well built because my wife's Kia has 130,000 miles on it and is running just fine with just basic maintenance. And I also reached out to Mercedes corporate to see if any of these drive train repairs etc were under warranty or at least we could discuss it...total silence.

MERCEDES C300 2015 WORST CAR OF THE YEAR

It is in fact an absolute joke. Don't buy it or lease it because the driver's seat is so badly designed that you are going to end up in the hospital. The front interior of the car is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. There's nowhere to put the cell phone. You've got to be a rocket scientist to put the a/c on and off. The car also stalls and you can't start it again. Also the power steering randomly freezes with no warning and you are stuck until it decides to work again. I have driven all the cars in my life and this car should have never been on the market. There is not much difference with the 2016 C300. DON'T BUY IT. THE MERCEDES C300 IS THE WORST CAR OF THE YEAR.

The C-pillar (rear) is a big honker - which makes changing lanes and backing out of the driveway unsafe. No technology for showing cars in the blind spot. Acceleration is turbo-lagged. Ugh. Rear view camera lousy. Sound system great though.

I bought this loaded 2015 c 400 with 9oo miles from the local Mercedes dealer on December 31, 2016 for $41k. A good deal, but...It eats front tires to such a degree that I now regret buying it. As usual for the C 300 class, the front tires are smaller than the rear so you can't rotate them. At 8500 miles the front tires were worn out. These Continental run flats cost $675 for two of them. The luxury and power are seductive, but the relentless depreciation and high maintenance cost make me wish I would have just bought the juvenile Subaru WRX or super juvenile ( according to my wife) WRX STI. I like driving in the mountains twice a week but the maintenance costs of my C 400...really all Mercedes...make me regret purchasing them. If I drove in the mountains daily, I probably would only get 5,000 miles out of them!

Amazing design, finishes, and everything a large car would have in a smaller one without compromises. You can't get that anywhere else it seems. They all try and upsell you to a larger car. My advice for a potential buyer is to option is well. The airmatic suspension----a must. The leather----a must. It seems most luxurious in it's luxury 'version' over sport 'version.

This is my first Mercedes. Where do I start with this dangerous and poorly designed car? 1. By putting the gear shifts from the center console (in most cars) to the wand, that used to be the windshield wipers, I have actually shifted the car accidentally into Neutral when it started to rain(thinking it was the wipers) while driving on the highway! Luckily it wasn't Reverse!!! 2. In the summer, when I've gotten into the hot car, I have actually gotten BURN MARKS on my right arm, while placing it on the center console as I was about to select a radio station. They trimmed the console with REAL metal ...it felt like I had put my arm on a hot frypan! 3. The dashboard controls for defroster, A/C, temperature control etc. are all exactly in a line and feel the same...there are no indentations or separations. So when you're driving at night and you need the defroster, you can't feel which one it is...and even when you find it, you still HAVE TO TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD a second time, to look up at the screen, which is placed to the right of you.... just to make sure you have selected the correct control. 4. The driver's seat is not only uncomfortable, but I have been in physical therapy since July 2015 (a few months after I leased the car) and I am still in P.T. April 2017) because it has caused me nerve pain in my neck and right leg. I have to lift my right leg very high to get over the threshold as I get into the car, and then FALL into the seat and adjust myself. I realized that after the first few months the constant lifting and adjusting have been the cause of the nerve pain. 5. The power seat adjustment ( not the memory adjustment) that you generally find in most other cars,when you slip your left hand down along the side of your seat, to move forward and backward...has been moved to THE DOOR. Wow! I thought it was so clever...BUT this ergonomic design is dangerous! If you want to make a slight adjustment up or back,when you're wearing a thick coat or just want to move back a little, you must remember to do it while the door is closed. If you need to adjust it once the door has been opened, you must REACH OUT BY HOLDING ONTO THE STEERING WHEEL with your right hand and move the seat positions with your outreached left hand. I had the door swing back on my left ankle because I had already put my left foot out of the car...I got a CONTUSION under my skin for months from the door slamming onto my ankle! 6. Now we come to the gorgeous center console...the entertainment center (I thought it was beautiful when I was looking at the car in the dealer's showroom). They designed two choices for you. One is a turning dial and the other is a "swipe" selector. Well, that "swipe" method CHANGES MY RADIO SELECTION whenever my handbag or arm slides over it (Example: as I am putting my bag down on the passenger seat). Frustrating and annoying! 7. The most concerning issue with this car happened twice... it SURGED as I was pulling up to a vertical parking space in front of a store. I stopped the car inches away from crashing threw the glass window of my pharmacy...I had driven my car onto the sidewalk! That happened in June two months after I got the car. It happened again in January, as it surged and nearly went up on the sidewalk at the school I volunteer at...both times I managed to apply the brake to stop it. I SPOKE TO THE MERCEDES MANAGEMENT TWICE...once to the service manager after my arm got burned July, the summer of 2015, and about month after that to my Mercedes salesman , about all these issues...I was told the manager would call me...he NEVER CALLED ME. I want to end my lease, butthe car salesman felt I had too much time left on my lease. I don't believe I can prove I am in P.T. because of the car's threshold. Has anyone else had any of these issues with this car??? UPDATE: September 23, 2016. I was told by my salesman that the Mercedes-Benz manager would call me shortly after I wrote the original review, but in all of these months I've never gotten any contact at all. I guess I've given up calling or talking to them, since I don't think I can prove that I have been in physical therapy since July 2015 because of the seat design and also having to lift my right leg over the threshold ( causing me to literally fall into the driver's seat). That repetitive motion, over the first few months, caused nerve pain from my lower back down to my right knee. All the other issues I listed are the same...I still have problems with all of them and I'm actually afraid of this car ! I am hoping to get rid it when my lease is closer to 20 months old. I am thinking of several other car brands: maybe BMW or Acura. UPDATE: October 2017. Nothing has really changed, still in physical therapy...EXCEPT I've gotten closer to finishing my lease. HURRAY!! I can hardly wait to get rid of this poorly designed "luxury" car! LAST UPDATE: April 2018. FINALLY RETURNED THIS MERCEDES!! It was NEVER driver-friendly!!!!

We have a 2015 c 400 that eats the outside edges in 6-8 k miles, inside edge still has 85% tread left . Take it in at 10 k miles when we first noticed outside edge of tires down to cords. I am told out of alignment , even when it tracks straight as a arrow, I have to pay for alignment that proves it is spot on factory settings, Then they say driving habit. Wife drives the car on the same freeway route as she did with our previous c 250 that got over 40k miles on original set of tires. Car currently has 40 k miles on it , brakes are at 70% life left , so not a hard driving issue. .Have been through 4 sets of front tires that I toss with over 85% of tread left on inside edge and centers at 8/32 tread depth and outside edges worn to cords .Only on 2nd set of rears that wear consistent from edge to edge and gave life expected of a super summer tire of 20 k miles If it was a hard driving issue rears would wear faster as well. Run flats at 20 inch size are 500 each !! Car is a poor design and MB will do nothing about it Every service writer knows it is a issue but mercedes usa will not address it and will not do anything about it. Very poor customer service from mercedes usa. ANYONE ELSE WITH A C SERIES 4 MATIC OR ANY OTHER 4 MATIC HAVING SAME ISSUES ??

Looks are impressive until you ride in it. The sport suspension is too stiff and jolts when hitting even a tiny bump. Only slightly better ride than our G37 Convertible which was a rattle trap.

This sedan saved me in the winter! Equipped with Vredestein all season/winter (yes, the combination exists) tires, this car handled amazingly in heavy snow this last winter. I was able to corner turns going over 30 mph without any hesitation from the all-wheel drive system. I give Mercedes so much props for creating such a sturdy car. I have never felt so safe and secure in a sedan as I have with this Mercedes; it’s a small tank. The gas mileage was pretty decent in both the city and on the highway, matching the number provided by the company. Although the vehicle was great to look at and had a nice interior, there were multiple loose parts creating rattles and weird noises. The dealership was somewhat helpful in fixing the problems, but couldn’t duplicate every noise. The vehicle started having steering column issues at around 50k miles, which caused me to trade it in, as the repair cost was going to be close to $7K. If you are looking for a used version of this car, keep in mind that it will be expensive to maintain, and the warranty won’t cover a lot of the issues that continuously needed fixing (brake pads, rotors, etc.). Overall, this was an excellent vehicle, and it did a great job at making me feel planted and secure on the road while offering fun and sporty handling when in sport mode.

I own a 2015 Mercedes c300 with slightly over 65k miles. Overall it's a great car. I have all the bells and whistles except the automatic trunk closing feature. I hate the run flat tires. I lost pressure on Alligator Alley about 75 miles outside of Naples coming from Fort Lauderdale on a Friday night. Not good. Don't count on 50 miles on a run flat. The car needed to be towed due to not having a spare and a replacement wasn't available until Monday. I tend to eat tires but take full responsibility for it. The car has staggered tires so one cannot rotate them. Two major issues I've encountered. One was the Panoramic sunroof that cost over 3k to fix. Mercedes Benz of Pembroke Pines did the work and it had to bring it back to them several times to be fixed correctly. The first and second time the trim wasn't put back properly even when I told my service adviser about it. In fact the service and general manager refused to return my calls when it broke again for the fourth time in under three months. It took a letter to Mercedes corporate for the car to be properly repaired. The other major problem I've had with the C300 is with the secondary fuel pump. On my way to Hollywood Beach there was a strong odor of gas. The secondary fuel pump is located on the driver's side about a foot from the fire wall. It is a fire hazard. My frustration is with the Pembroke Pines dealership not with the car, All cars can and will need servicing at some point. I must admit to being a bit spoiled as my wife's car is an GS F type Lexus. The Lexus dealership treats customers like royalty That said I prefer the handling of C300. I feel more confident cornering and braking in the C300. Off the line the C300 is quicker and "feels" lighter. When push comes to shove the Lexus can outrun the C300 when really pushed. The fit and finish on both cars is outstanding. Albeit I'll give it to the Lexus due to wind noise of C300 at highway speeds. The Lexus is substantially quieter, has a slightly better sound system, and had zero issues. That being said I am planning on purchasing a C43. Not from Mercedes of Pembroke Pines.

Unreliable

Honestly the car drives amazingly, interior is beautiful, exterior is beautiful, downside maintenance and repairs. MB warranties have been decent in my opinion but the inconvenience of having to take the vehicle to the shop now now a month is frustrating. Since ownership it needed a sensor, water pump, engine mounts, multiple alignments, sunroof would not close, and having the run flat tires is a pain. I would never recommend this vehicle to anyone, it’s been a complete disaster.

I purchased my 2015 Mercedes-Benz C Class at a Nissan dealer that got it on a trade. It was in pristine condition, despite being six years old. Other than needing to replace the original battery about a year after I bought it, the car has not given me a bit of trouble. It has been on long road trips of over 500 miles in a day as well as used for in-city driving. I get more compliments on this vehicle than I ever gotten on any of my previous vehicles, which included a Lexus, another Mercedes and others. It's so fun to drive and handles better than anything I've driven. Also, the fuel economy is absolutely amazing. I would never hesitate to recommend this car.

Cool car, expensive service

Bought used with 120K kms. It drives fantastic fully loaded minus air suspension. Axles, control arms, and whole front end suspension had to be done right when i bought it. Over 7K service (CAD), thank god the previous owner had extended transferable warranty. Next the coolant message kept coming up, turns out reservoir was leaking, again, warranty came through. Then summer rolled around and smelt a weird smell from AC, had to get antiseptic service from MB dealer, only around 300 out of pocket. Had service B done and they found engine oil leaks, rear cracked flexdisc, and alignment needed to be done. Mostly covered, had to pay for alignment and spark plugs, paid around 1.5k for service. Fast forward to this summer, i smell it the AC funky again, just gonna get cabin air filter replaced. Auxiliary battery failed, which was 750 out of pocket. I had the main battery replaced with OEM too right when i bought the car. Had to take the car for transmission service (AT) after rough shifts at around 145k (service advisor let me know it was due at 120k). They did the full tranny service and found the crankshaft sensor failed as well as some leaks in the front differential and already some wear on the left spring arm boot, as its torn. Warranty should cover some issues here but still 2k bill. The car will be warrantied for another year, but im just concerned with the cost of ownership, especially out of warranty. The car eats front tires, just through me drivjng around 30k, the front specifically passenger side gets worn. The sports suspension plus 4matic definitely pushes the tires and suspension hardware. Brakes are good, got replaced when i bought and are still strong, MB upsells the brake fluid change every 2 years (dealer quoted $380 for this,,). Overall super expensive to maintain, if it werent for warranty, i wouldve paid more to service the car than it costs to buy the car. Buddy was telling me the cost to service his W205C63s, its absolutely bonkers. Sure, you’ll save money on depreciation (compared to buying mew benz), but you spend it on servicing the car.

Determine the accessories and that they are all in working order. I miss not having a camera. Do check out the condition of the leather seats - prone to wear.

My car is CPO I bought it with extended warranty, 2015 have 4 years plus one they give you; the front was pained and paint coming off claimed and repainted 6 months later coming of again, and also roof liner is coming of in the four corners. Manager Larry told Mechanics that please do like put a band aid not a surgery, the dealer in Pembroke pines Fl worst service experience, and greater deception, to buy an expensive brand with poor craftsmanship, and even worst dealer response. I'll fix the car on an honest place
