This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Numerous complaints about a faulty crankshaft position sensor in Mercedes Benz vehicles that prevents cars from starting and also shuts them off whilst on the road and in motion. Car died on me 6 times. Luckily, I wasn't traveling very fast but this is very unsafe but I did cause a traffic delay and blocked the road several times while stalled.
Vehicle is burning oil. Dealer said they can't find the cause of the problem. Manufacturer has not been contacted yet. Independent mechanic stated that the vehicle was burning excessive oil, and recommended that the dealer or manufacturer look into it.
