1 Headlight Switch problem of the 2008 Mercedes Benz C300

Failure Date: 01/02/2017

The headlights (low beam) flicker or turn off completely while driving and while the light switch is in the "on" position (not "auto"). This happens during the day or at night time, which constitutes a serious safety concern.

2 Headlight Switch problem of the 2010 Mercedes Benz C300

Failure Date: 09/07/2013

Approximately once every 2 months while parked with the engine off, the front passenger side headlight will come on with the rear passenger side parking/brake light. When this occurs, I have to turn the headlight switch on then back off, to turn off the lights. On one occasion, I observed the passenger side headlight and the rear passenger light flickering like a strobe light, before I turned the switch on then off.
