Takata recall: notice of recall from April 2016, parts for both airbags are still not available for the repair. Unreasonable period of time (about 16-months) to resolve this safety issue.

Rear passenger seat belt restraint buckle will no longer make contact with metal seat belt latch. Does not insert completely and does not click. Mechanism appears to suddenly not allow for connection to lock and secure safety belt for a passenger to be secured. Not safe and secure for use at this time. Resistance has appeared with other rear seat belts as well. There is no blockage or disruption other than the mechanism within the seat belt buckle itself that does not click or stay in place when attached with the metal seat belt latch. Vehicle was in motion when seat latch became unattached as my child was secured in a safety seat and it was notices that the latch became unfastened involuntarily.

Takata inflators: they sent me a letter back in may 2016 and in August 2016 stating that both driver and passenger side airbags are defecting. There still has been no resolution regarding this and according to takata, if the airbags deploy or if they do not could result in serious injury or death. I am driving my mercedes around and scared to death that they may or may not ploy and could kill my family or I. Srs control unit: may corrode and cause control unit malfunction. This is still not resolved on my vehicle and the letter was sent out in March 2016.

The contact mentioned that the seat belt sensor should be included in the recall associated with NHTSA campaign number: 15v711000 (air bags). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 85,000.

Jan 2015 started care and immediately srs and seatbelt light message appeared on dash. Late fall 2015 received recall letter, called mb of catonsville, received/went to appointment for repair. Missed time from from work only to be told w/n the hour part was not available, I would receive a call when it came in. Late may 16 I received another recall letter from mbusa referring me back to the dealer. Wednesday 06/15/16 I contacted mbusa who explained to me that the part for the airbag was not in but the sra part was available at the dealer. I was directly connected to mb of catonsville by mbusa and was assured part was there/ I was given an appointment next day Thursday at 8:15 a. M. At appt. , 2 hours later I received a call from the svc mgr. Part was not available. It might take until Monday June 20, 2016. It is now Tuesday June 21, 2016. I have not heard anything from mb of catonsvile about the part. No one has reached out to me. I ask for a loaner because I was tired of driving the vehicle with anxiety since 2015. In order for me to receive a loaner I have to allow the dealership to hold $150. 00 on my bank account while I have possession of the loaner. I cannot afford the cost at this time. And again I messed time from work to have car serviced. Please advise of any options I have at this time.

The contact owns a 2010 Mercedes Benz C300. The contact stated that the rear seat belts were extremely tight to the seats. The contact indicated that the seat belts in the front were loose and the seat belts in the rear were tight. The contact also indicated that the front driver side seat belt and the passenger side seat belt malfunctioned and did not work. While traveling at a highway rate of speed, another driver traveling at a high rate of speed crashed into the rear of the contact's vehicle. The other vehicle spun around and struck the front of the contact's vehicle. The contact stated that the driver was in the process of exiting the highway when the drunk driver impacted the vehicle from the rear. The air bags failed to deploy. Neither of the seat belts secured the driver nor the passenger, which caused severe impact to the head, neck, and back. The driver sustained major back and head injuries, but did not receive medical attention. The front passenger sustained major injuries to the head, neck, a cervical strain, a cat scan, and back pains. The front passenger received medical attention. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop. The contact asked that the vehicle be held until the manufacturer and the insurance company could further inspect the integrity of the seat belts and the air bags. The manufacturer was notified of the crash and the contact mentioned that they were to send an investigator and refer the contact to an authorized dealer for further inspection of the vehicle. The contact was still waiting on a response from the manufacturer. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was not available.

Near the end of a 388 mile drive, the warning light for srs malfunction came on although it seemed that no condition changed. My car already had the tail light failure notification light engaged for a few months already. My concern is that this may be more than an electrical notification issue and that the srs (secondary restraining system) is not going to work should I get into an accident.

Srs malfunction for front left seat message popped up recently. On further investigation by a mechanic is was found that the error code was 9b51 which mean that the front left seat belt buckle needs to be replaced. The problem with this issue is(as explained by the mechanic) that in an event of a crash the airbag will not deploy, which is pretty serious. Although I was still under the factory warranty for miles (50,000) my years with the car was above their year limit(4 years). I have seen exactly the same issue being reported by many benz C300 year 2008+ owners reporting this issue in many forums online and there's a mention of this issue to NHTSA as well.

The contact owns a 2008 mercedes-benz C300. While driving at low speeds, the passenger side air bag warning light illuminated. In addition, the front driver side seat belt retracted while there was a passenger in the seat. The failures recurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 15v711000 (air bags); however, the part needed to repair the vehicle was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The failure mileage was 70,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

The contact owns a 2009 Mercedes Benz C300. The contact stated that the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a private mechanic where it was diagnosed that the seat belt buckle needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure and current mileage was 65,100.

Seatbelt buckle of the driver seat triggers the sensor that displays srs malfunction. The dealer said that airbag will not deploy when this sensor is triggered.

For unknown reason, a warning about srs restraint system driver side failure. Unsure if this is air bag, or seat belt related. Dealer wanted $2200. To fix. Outrageous safety issue. From online search this seems to happen regularily to mb products. Why has dot not taken action. Thank you for a response.

Right after the manufactures warranty ended, the left front srs malfunction light came on in my vehicle, accompanied by the air bag light. I did research and found that there are several people who suffer from this malfunction. The light does not go off and the air bag system will not deploy in case of an accident. This is a major issue that is incredibly expensive to fix (approx. Costs are over $1000. 00 at my dealership) and since it has been a recurring defect in the vehicle year after year, it needs to be fixed by mercedes at no cost to myself and other mercedes owners.

I bought my Mercedes Benz and notice that my tail light and the light on the front of the car will turn on by itself while my car was parked in the morning my car battery will be dead needing a charge. I had a recall from Mercedes Benz dealer and I took the car to the dealership and supposedly they fix it and the car had gotten worse. It had burned the harnesses and fog harness, while I was driving the car was acting like shutting off the radio and ac will start shutting off and turning on at the same time while I was on the highway on my way home from work. Right now my car only have working the high beam. I been getting a lot of recalls for this car but really it seems like I'm loosing my time .

My 2011 c-300 has two recalls pending for both air bags (driver and passenger). I have been complaining to mbusa for over 2 years to have them replaced. To this day 11/06/2017 mbusa had made no attempt to contact me or provide a solution. The rear seat-belts lockup on passengers and ratchet down consistently with little movement thereby requiring the passengers to unfasten their belts and ride without the seat belt being fastened. I purchased the vehicle new and both problems have been existing from the purchase date March 2011.
