The air conditioning system failed in thec-240, 2006. I called for an appointment for diagnosis, and was given a date that put the car just out of extended warranty coverage. I discovered this after the fact. I had assumed thatthe air conditioner just needed charging again, and would not be covered. If i had any idea that it was going to be a $3,000.00for repairs.i would have rushed back in december 2005 when the problem started with fogged windows.

After leaving my 2001 clk320 mercedes at the dealership i was notified that my brake system was defective requiring pads/rotors and other related items along with the fact that every 1000 miles or so, a light bulb or something electrical will fail and i usually find the nearest dealership and get the problem fixed. The brake system (which is not under warranty) was the last straw! we are talking about a 50,000 dollar automobile with only a little over 17,000 miles on it.

April nov 2004, i purchased a2001 c240 mercedes from princeton mercedes in new jersey.onemonth after driving the car slowed down as if it would not accelerated. I had to take it back in for repair. They told they could not find a problem. However 4/19/08 i experienced the same problem of deceleration while driving i was told this time that it was transmission control unit. I have been researching and i believed that this was the problem 4 years ago; however they did not was to correct the problem. I want to know was there a recall for this specific transmission control unit on these types of cars. I have been in several chat rooms and there are various complaints regarding this type of problem. The car will stop in traffic or on the freeway without notice.at the time of the incident i was able to pull over to a gas station: however what would happen if there was major traffic bumper to bumper. I want this problem researched. I believed that mercedes knew about a flaw with this transmission control unit.
