In December 2017, I was driving along a city street when the driver's front airbag suddenly deployed. My car was well-maintained, with mileage of 28,520. It appears the suspension (lower ball joint) on the right side failed, causing the right front tire to blow out and causing damage to the left front tire as well. There was no collision, yet the airbag deployed with an extremely loud bang that seriously damaged my hearing, perhaps permanently. An online search indicates that Mercedes has had problems with airbags deploying unnecessarily, but I have never received notice of a recall.
Various problems with 2001 Mercedes C240. The keyless entry remote failed intermittently. The windshield washer aimed too high. The fm radio reception was poor. The clutch was rubbing. The SRS light illuminated on the dash.
