Summary

Passenger front seat belt. If the seat belt would have been used , due to the area that is coming apart and there would be an accident, the belt could come apart. The dealer refused to even take pictures or call the manufacturer. I called the manufacturer myself and basically all they have done is put the issue on a back burner. I’ve ask for a higher level person. They said that they didn’t have a phone number for them . But they would put notes on the account to have someone call me . A week or so goes by, they called asking if the vehicle was still at the dealer, I told her no because we have to have it to go to work . At the 2 nd trip to the dealership, after she said to take it in, they acted like they never got a call from the manufacturer. They said that they were going to take pictures this time and send them in . I also took pictures this time and the last time. The dealership called their supplier in Dallas and said it was on back order, and it could take as long as a year to get one . When I talked to the manufacturer representative, I told her I made 1 call and they had one . If I found one , why couldn’t the dealership do the same thing . My understanding is that they are saying it’s because it has 62,000 miles at the time . Barely over the 60,000 . We took it in to have it serviced and to have the seat belt recall checked . I guess the date would have been about [XXX] . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Manufacturer Name: Nissan North America, Inc.

Vehicle Make: NISSAN

Vehicle Model: MURANO

Model Year: 2010


Summary

This is the second set of sunvisors on my Murano definite safety hazard when hitting a slight bump in the road, they fall down blocking your vision all of a sudden. While driving, I have to push it back up and most of the time it falls right back down. This is something that Nissan should be held accountable for as $200 a set is very expensive when they keep breaking. If I get hurt because of them in a car accident, I will be suing Nissan.

Manufacturer Name: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC

Vehicle Make: MERCEDES BENZ

Vehicle Model: AMGeBay logo GLE53 4MATIC

Model Year: 2026


Summary

I am writing regarding my 2026 AMGeBay logo GLE53 Coupe. It has 6,000 miles. On XXX I was driving from [XXX] to [XXX]. On the drive up the Collision Alert engaged. It terrified me, as I had no idea what had happened. The car continued to drive normally, so I proceeded. When I was about to drive down a decline of approximately 7% grade, the brake light came on. Shortly after, the engine light came on. I reached my destination (one more mountain pass) as the car drove normally. I contacted the service department at the Mercedes Benz of Littleton. I was told to wait a few days to see if it reset. When I turned on the car the next day, the brakes were extremely compromised. I had to literally push my foot through the floorboard to get it to stop, Fortunately, this was only in my driveway at 3 miles an hour. I called Mercedes and the car was towed 100 miles back down to [XXX]. I have extreme anxiety levels thinking about what would have happened had I been driving through the mountains and the brakes had failed. They told me that the vacuum sensor had stopped communicating. (Although with all of the other sensors that engaged, I’m not sure that this is the only thing wrong) I have no faith in this car and no longer want to drive it. The dealer will only give me a very low trade-in amount for the car. It is important to know that this is the third time something has happened with the car. The first car that I purchased (same year/make/model) had a “Limp Mode” alert come in shortly after driving it off the lot. The service department could not figure out why. Mercedes of [XXX] bought the car back from me and ordered a new one. I took possession of the new car in February, 2026. In May, the 48V Battery failure alert came on. The latest incident has left me with absolutely no confidence in the car or a desire to continue driving it. This is a serious failure which clearly could have had catastrophic consequences.

Summary

The power steering completely stopped working during normal driving conditions. It is not a blown fuse, as those have been checked. My safety and the safety of others on the road was impaired by the sudden loss of power steering. The warning of servicing power steering only came on AFTER the power steering was lost. There were no prior symptoms that would have let us know there was any kind of issue with the steering.

Manufacturer Name: General Motors, LLC

Vehicle Make: CHEVROLET

Vehicle Model: COLORADO

Model Year: 2023


Summary

After shifting to drive the vehicle had no brakes. A week or so earlier the check engine light came on. Messages on the screen said brake system failure along with other messages. Took to dealership, an update was installed. Last Wednesday engine light reappeared with the same messages but didn’t have time to return it to the dealership so parked it until today. Today was the brake failure. Returned to dealership, they replaced the battery and said the brake issue is fixed. I’m not convinced this fixed the issue and believe this could get someone seriously injured or killed.

Manufacturer Name: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC

Vehicle Make: MERCEDES-BENZ

Vehicle Model: C 300

Model Year: 2019


Summary

The M264 2.0L engine suffered a catastrophic internal failure. While making a left turn at an intersection, the vehicle suddenly shut off and stalled, leaving the car stranded in active traffic and creating an immediate safety risk. Prior to the shutdown, the check engine light came on accompanied by severe shaking and misfires. The vehicle was inspected by an authorized dealership service center, which confirmed complete engine failure. Mercedes-Benz issued a 15-year/150,000-mile extended warranty for the M264 exhaust valve and cylinder head assembly, but warranty coverage was refused because the cylinder defect progressed to total engine destruction. The vehicle remains available for inspection upon request.
