Mercedes Benz Metris owners have reported a total of 231 problems for their cars built in the 9 model years listed in the chart below. The chart shows the number of problems reported across all service years for each given model year of the Mercedes Benz Metris. The 2016 Mercedes Benz Metris cars have the most problems reported (125 problems).

The following chart shows the 18 most common problems for Mercedes Benz Metris cars. The number one most common problem is related to the vehicle's tires (41 problems). The second most common problem is related to the vehicle's fuel system, other (40 problems).
It would not be fair to compare the Mercedes Benz Metris of an older model year to newer model years since older vehicles have been in service longer and thus are expected to have more problems. In order to compare the reliability across Metris model years, we use the PPMY index which is defined as the problems reported per thousand vehicles per Year. A smaller PPMY index indicates greater reliability of the given model year cars.
PPMY = P / S / Y * 1000,
where P = total problems reported during the life of a Mercedes Benz Metris model year; S = total units sold of the model year; Y = years since the debut of the model year (the age of the vehicle).
The results are shown in Table 3.
Another way to measure the reliability across the model years of the Mercedes Benz Metris is to use the total number of problems reported during the vehicle's first year in service, as shown in the Table 4.
| Model Year | Problems Reported |
