Body problem #1

Panoramic sunroof bonding and bolts loose causing constant horrific cracking/clanking sounds due to shifting of glass. Possible frame and airbag damage, possible glass falling, possible injury/accident/death. Can cause issues with airbags deploying and water leaks. Mercedes mechanic said it's the worst case/noise he has heard in any mercedes. Same make/year/model has been recalled in other plants. Also, walnut trim has faded tremendously.

Body problem #2

Headliner bubble up and coming loose thus creating a safety issue because abstract both front and mostly rear visibility while driving. Have this vehicle bought 2 months ago and have develop this condition, making hard to see and drive thus is a serious driving hazard. Contact Mercedes Benz dealer refuses to address the issue as safety hazard and did not repair or replace headliner at my cost of $1,652 plus labor etc. Vehicle has vehicle dealer various private warranties but according to them it is a cosmetic issue not a safety one. I strongly disagree with them since I can not see mostly from my rearview window back and even the front window have to hold one the liner to move the vehicle (can not drive while holding the liner) please advice if any service bulletin of this type of issue are affected.
