Engine And Engine Cooling Problems of Mercedes Benz Metris

I have had 2 major and costly repairs/issues with the engine and its oil system. These are detailed below. I have also received multiple collision or seatbelt dash alerts when no one is near my vehicle whatsoever. Unexpected repairs back-to-back due to defective parts/design: oil pump control valve and harness replaced. Cost: $1,499. Replaced crankcase ventilation hose assembly. Cost: $3,293. 37.

2016 Metris engine m274 check engine light, p052e71 crankcase ventilation valve- oil leakage- safety is compromised as this damage causes engine failure. The dealer has confirmed multiple oil leaks and other parts and service is required at extensive cost to me. This is the same damage and failure that passenger models with the m274 engine have an extended warranty available to them- my passenger Metris with the exact same engine is excluded from this extended warranty.

Check engine light cel code p052e suddenly turned on in the winter about 1 1/2 year ago, but turned off itself after a month. The check engine light cel code p052e turned on suddenly in June 2024 and stays on still. Emailed and complaint to Mercedes Benz USA and received no answer. Mercedes benz USA given recall and emission extended warranty on this code to all c, e, g, , slc and slk class passenger cars with 2. 0 engine on August 25, 2023, but excluded my passenger van model, Metris, which has the same code and is a common problem. This is not right and not fair. Please advise and help.

Position sensor for intake camshaft had a malfunction. Position of intake camshaft implausible. Intake camshaft pick up wheel was not in sync with timing. Antique camshaft was out of sync by 180°. This caused a loss of power and engine functionality while underway.

Reports of repeat failures of crankcase vent assembly. Known issue on c-class (same system) and extended warranty in place for c-class models. Need extended warranty for Metris as well since the same problematic component is on these models too.

Code p052e-71 valve for crankcase ventilation has a malfunction code p06da-00 actuation of the valve in the combustion engine has an electrical fault or open circuit. These codes have been reported on too many times on forums to not have these issues recalled and fixed and paid for by mercedes. This expensive problem should not have occurred with such little mileage and have to be fixed by the consumer.

Piston blew with regular maintenance under a 100k.

Vehicle experienced crankcase ventilation component failure at low miles of 31,750. Code thrown is p052e resulting in needing replacement of a large assembly of emissions/oil vapor control tubing and valves costing over $1000 plus over 12 hours of labor. Well known problem on mercedes vehicles with the m274 2. 0 turbo 4cylinder engine.

It has been two years after posting an issue with engine light on indicating the error code p052e which is a known problem on many models mercedes has. This Metris van is not a passenger van but a commercial van. It has however the same engine and same error code as all the models mercedes having this engine. It is stated that it is under warranty by mercedes up to 150k, with the exception of the commercial van. This is ludicrous and a failure to correct a known defect and expecting the customer to pay the bill. It is also disturbing that the NHTSA does not communicate to the complaint or direct mercedes to fix the problem. What happened to quality and customer care?.

There is couple knocking sound and noises from the engine and vehicle shaking intermittently and lack of power after engine knocking sound. Smell gas leaking and dealer did fuel hose performed inspection found lower fuel hose from tank to high pressure pump leaking causing fuel leaks. Replace fuel hose and clamps.

The crankcase ventilation valve called (crankcase rebreather)comes with a defect making engine light to come on after about an average of 50. 000 miles, with a code p052e, preventing passing state vehicle inspection. Feedback from many Metris ownership highlights exact same challenge with engine light turned on at all times. But dealership is charging up to 3. 000 dollars to remove their own faulty designed part.

The stability control light, abs brakes, collision assist came on then as I pulled onto the interstate the car started bucking lost acceleration and I had an 18 wheeler running up my rear trying to brake. The vehicle went into limp mode. I am familiar with wheel sensor failures how this vehicle reacts is seriously a danger hazard and should be recalled. This is my 3rd wheel sensor on this vehicle in 8 months.
