After 22,000 miles, engine oil leak , software problem for a/c, stereo, and navigation system. The engine compartment is so tight,it generate so much heat which cause plastic,electric,and rubber parts to fall apart faster. This will also cause much,much,much more labor cost for consumers. The top plastic engine cover cracked when trying to remove it. The over head display for mph and direction was blur. The Cadillac is much better. To use air condition, it not simple. To turn off the fan, you have to set it at one . There is no zero like standard . The stereo sound system is horrible. Cadillac, Aston Martin, Landrover, Lexus, and Jaguar sound much better, it has a 2 second turbo lag when floor it. The expensive tires last about 11,000 miles with normal driving. That is so sad.

My S550 convertible's transmission blew up (literally) on the way home from the dealer. With a new tranny, I drove 48000 miles and it is still running. Until recently nothing went wrong. Now the CD player (which I have never used) needed to be replaced and the remote trunk switch on the driver's door fell apart. The car is still under warranty but I have a bad premonition that the thing will get expensive. It is a shame since it is a powerful, comfortable and very impressive car and comparables (Bentley Continental?) cost much more. The depreciation is enormous - I paid 150,000 for it August 2016 and my dealer keeps on offering a current model with a trade in offer for 65,000 dollars. Update May 2021 - COVID sure put an end to cross country jaunts. I only have 55,000 miles on the car. It is running very well, no problems to report. Since it will not be produced after this year, I will hang on to it for the near future. One good thing about it is that Mercedes has a way of providing parts and service for their cars - of course they cost an arm and a leg, but still cheaper than one of the replacement models. November 2022 - l have just arrived at 69000 miles. New tires were needed, the second set - Michelin Pilot AS3 - lasted 30000. In the meantime, we took the car for a new cross country trip. I am doing the oil/filter changes myself but an air filter and new spark plugs are overdue and will be fiendishly expensive. Blowing the fuses for the electric outlets (my fault) was educational. One has to literally take apart the entire trunk to get to the fuse box (or the battery). Price of three fuses - 6 dollars. Labor at Mercedes would probably have been 4-500 dollars. Oh well. Otherwise literally nothing went wrong in 6 years. Trade in value? Probably $45,000 - an expensive indulgence, a Kia Rio would have been cheaper to have.

Twin turbocharged 6 cylinder engine develops 382 horsepower. This car has plenty of pickup for driving in city or on highway. I consistently hit 32 MPG on highway, using the self adjusting cruise and lane retention features. The technology is amazing. It virtually drives itself, maintaining in lane, adjusting speed to traffic, and self parking. The finishes on the exterior and interior are excellent. After driving several other Luxury brands, I will have a tough time leaving my Mercedes.

The best sedan driver I've ever owned

I just read a few reviews of a 2017 MB S550 sedan and had lot's of troubles. I bought 8 months ago a 17 MB S550 4-Matic metallic brown exterior with the new 9-speed transmission and it's a great looking and driving vehicle. Beautiful across the board. I've never driven a smoother full loaded sedan EVER. My friend has a 2017 RR Ghost we exchanged cars for an hour and he admitted my car was equally as good as the ghost. I bought the car with 29K and 14 months on the warrantee and considerably less than half of the MSRP. You just can't beat it..
