One problem related to steering failed has been reported for the 2012 Mercedes Benz E350. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Total steering failure. The steering locked up solid, and trying to turn the steering wheel was met with a hammering noise from under the front of the car. Fortunately, this occurred in our driveway - had it happened on the highway there would definitely been an accident. We took the car to our local repair shop (the mercedes dealer is a 1-1/2 hour drive from where we live) and they determined that the aluminum bolts holding the electric drive motor to the steering rack had corroded through and motor had fallen off. I found that there is a recall for this problem in canada, but our dealer (burlington vermont) said there is no recall in the u. S.
