Purchased from private individual with mileage 43,000. Filled up the gas tank on two occasions. After each occasion, placed car in garage afterward and closed garage door. The smell of raw gas was overwhelming as soon as garage door was shut. Due to the overwhelming smell and safety concern, car was parked in driveway. No leaks on garage floor were found. Car parked in garage the next day without the smell of raw gas.

My partner told me that his passenger headlight was burned out and that he was told it was going to be over $800 to replace. I decided to try to replace the bulb myself, but i found that the insulation on the electrical harness leading the headlight connectors had deteriorated to the point that the wires are bare, causing electrical shorting, equipment failure, leading to potential electrical fire which may cause serious life threatening accidents. I have found at least one other complaint of this nature, reported on november 13 2017, for a 2008 clk350 vehicle with the same leading vin number of wdbtk56f.... That complaint indicates that "mercedes benz is not supplying a fix as reported by multiple owners. Also extended warranty insurers are denying coverage due to the wide spread defect across the mercedes benz models." i cannot find any more information on this problem. This is not normal for any vehicle, much less one that is only 10 years old.

A dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Routine maintenance identified gasoline leaking from fuel tank's "fuel sender". Small crack in plastic fuel sender at point where fuel hose attached to sender allowed gasoline to accumulate over time in area surrounding sender and then travel to underside of car in an area immediately adjacent to exhaust system. At time leak was discovered approx 1/4 cup of fuel had accumulated. Had problem not been discovered a car fire was inevitable

Many owners of late-model mercedes-benz cars equipped with 3.0l and 3.5l v6 engines (m272 or m273) have experienced performance problems that include poor idle, loss of power and a check engine light with a P2006 code (or sometimes other codes). The shafts will fail inside the manifold and bind, causing the lever to break and the caps shown to look like they are popping off the manifold.
