general problems of the 2010 Mercedes Benz E350

Fast acceleration then slow down goes into limp mode . Happens when passing a car or taking off fast like entering into traffic . Very dangerous. Will be calling Mercedes Benz tomorrow. Bought car used approximately 4 months ago. Thanks.

Does the engine in this car have a correct balance shaft?.

Smell gasoline on driver side. Can’t fill tank up or the smell is unbearable. Gas consumption is high. Engine light is on , suspension make a lot of noise, and ticking on driver side.

The contact owns a 2010 mercedes-benz E350. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the low battery warning light illuminated. The vehicle was driven to a nearby parking lot. The contact parked the vehicle and opened the hood. The contact stated that upon inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed pieces of the serpentine belt on the engine. The contact turned the vehicle off. The contact went to a nearby auto parts store and purchased a new serpentine belt. The contact replaced the serpentine belt, and the vehicle was driven to the residence. The contact stated that upon checking the data on the instrument panel, the contact became aware of several error messages. In addition, the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel failed to turn in the intended direction. The contact stated that the steering wheel had seized. The contact turned off the vehicle and the steering wheel functionality returned. The contact stated that the low coolant warning light illuminated; however, the coolant level was checked and was sufficient. Additionally, the contact stated that the drive assist warning light was illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to two independent mechanics regarding the drive assist warning light; however, the failure could not be duplicated.

August 2024, while driving on a 4 lane highway at 65 mph, a warning appeared on gauge cluster saying that electronic stability control and traction control inoperable. This caused the car to reduce power, requiring me to quickly pull over. The car continued running but I was limited on mph and gear selection (aka limp mode). I turned the car off, allowing the systems to reset. After driving approximately 1 miles, the same warnings appeared. Fortunately, I was within a mile from home at the time so I was able to "limp" the car home. The next day, I checked the car again by driving in my neighborhood with the result. I had the car transported on roll back to express oil and tire in barboursville, wv as my "local" mb dealer is an hour away. They checked the car and the engine control module was defective and needed replacement. The cost of the service including new mb parts and programming would be $2,495. I tried for 2 months to secure funding to fix the car to no avail. I had the car towed on roll back again but back to my house. The car has sat since then.

Smell gasoline when tank get filled up. Engine light is on , suspension make a lot of noise , power steering pump also.

We brought this vehicle from 3rd party. Transmission gear sound is coming so hard. I have very low mileage only 48k. I wen to delar, he told me to change the transmission or contact head office to resolve this issue. I need someone to help me for next step.

During cold engine starting, a knocking can be heard in the engine. The knocking lasts approximately eight rotations, and then stops.

Another car made an illegal u-turn and caused me to t-bone on his passenger side. Front of my car hit his passenger side and dragged his car for about 10 feet. Air bags on my car did not deploy, safety system m-brace in car failed and did not call sos either. Car safety system did not detect the crash at all. Mercedes benz did not detect a crash.
