I was told that my car has a recall for the camshaft adjustment solenoid. I took my car into mercedes to be repaired and they told me that the recall was closed and they could not repair my vehicle. I am worried about this issue causing more damage to my engine and I am concerned for my safety while operating my vehicle. I encounter problems with my vehicle while driving.

After backing out of handicap parking space and moving forward at a slow speed my vehicle was rear-ended, at which point the vehicle forcefully accelerated forward independently without warning and crashed into another parked vehicle (forcefully moving this vehicle approximately three feet) the vehicle continued to speed through the handicap parking lot as I continued to brake without results of stopping. This vehicle ran through a stop sign and into the front entrance road of the va hospital. ( this road has heavy traffic and pedestrian usage) the only way to stop my vehicle was to jump the curb and run into a tree. I feel very fortunate that my vehicle was the only thing damaged. This could have been a devastating event if disabled wheelchair persons or pedestrians had been in the path of this occurrence. I am reporting this to say that this has happened to other C300 2010 Mercedes Benz and needs to be investigated as a serious safety issue. This could cause deaths. I have a witness to my brake lights going on and off as I tried to stop this car.

I have 2010 Mercedes Benz C300, my car would not start with my key even though the battery checked okay. This is a very common failure among C300 models (2008 to 2013). So meaning cars are vulnerable to this failure around 5 year mark. Manufacturer should issue a recall on these parts, as they have a very bad reliability.

I was droven the car and just stop in the middle of the street, I almost had and accident. I took my car to my mechanic, he can't fixed, the dealer need to do the job for tree times more. Than my mechanic. This is unfair! I buy my car in 2012 original milage 10000miles. To my knowlege is to low very milage for having this type a problem.
