Car dash display indicated to check right rear turn lamp.while checking the lamp, the lamp holder assembly was hot.when attempting to unplug the electrical connector to the lamp holder assembly, discovered that the electrical connector was melting (specifically around the ground wire).there seem to be other reports of this issue on web forums (e.g. Mb world).
Electronic steering lock failure common problem
Brown wire in left tail light connector melted through the connector and tail light failed to operate, including turn signal.
Rear tail light wiring has burnt up causing failure of the taillight.this happened on both sides of the vehicle.the right side actually began putting out smoke when the burnt connector failed.this fire could have spread with my kids in the car.
Cel illumination, engine misfire, stalling, rough running, low coolant indicator light ups.no external coolant loss detectable. Coolant in the engine oil and/or in the combustion chamber.this is caused by a broken cylinder head bolt.engine coolant enters into engine oil. Coolant might be present in the combustion chamber. Affected engine number up to 1569xx 60 060658.now the dealership is trying to charge me $7k to have this fixed when it's a known issue on these vehicles.i respectfully demand that mercedes benz usa cover the costs and recall these affected bolts asap.
The vehicle experienced a headbolt failure resulting in coolant flooding one of the cylinder, leaking inside the engine and causing engine failure.i was lucky that i was driving at 20mph at the time of the failure, otherwise it would most likely result in a crash.mercedes-benz usa denies the widespread nature of the problem affecting all of the m156 engines, even through in 2010 mercedes-benz issued a service bulletin directing replacement of the headbolts with the new improved design and i personally know 3 other owners whose vehicle experienced exactly the same problem.mercedes-benz would not recall the affected engines as it would cost them millions of dollars, instead they chose to put the consumers at risk and have the consumers cover the repair cost as the failure tends to happen shortly after the base warranty expires.
As i was driving i had a light come on my dash telling me i had low coolant and that i needed to have it filled. This has happened a number of times since my short ownership of this vehicle.from what i understand this is a sealed unit and should not be losing antifreeze anywhere. I had the vehicle looked at and i do not have any leaks whatsoever. When i add the coolant, it seems to be fairly low. I am concerned that i may have some big issues on my hands and could potentially have a hydro-locking of the engine problem creating a major safety issue leading to a crash. After a bit of research i am finding that the mb c63 has "head bolt" issues leading to the loss of coolant and engines blowing up and or hydro-locking. I fear this issue may happen to me and would really appreciate this being looked into as i feel mb has a certain amount of responsibility here with regards to the safety of their patrons.thank you for hearing me.
