2004 Mercedes-Benz E-Class e320 wagon review from North America
"Mercedes service and quality are horrible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gas tank leak needed to replace entire gas tank.
Malfunction of drivers side window trapped arm in window.
General comments?
I would never by another mercedes due to extremely dangerous malfunctions on my car.
The window malfunctioned and trapped my arm it was squeezing shut so severly that I had to see a doctor after being trapped for 2 minutes until someone opened it.
Had car towed 3 times in one week for intense gas smell and was told each time that there was nothing wrong until the third time tow truck driver verified smell of gas. entire gas tank needed to be replaced - I was told I was lucky I didn't get into an accident because the car could have exploded.
