Brake Pad and Door Issues
3500 miles on my C450 that I got in Nov 2016.
Its been making loud screeching noises when braking especially now that it's warmer out. Dealer is replacing brake pads.
The bigger issue I had was my driver door not opening. I pull the interior door lever and the door doesn't open. I have to push really hard to get out and even then sometimes I just can't. So I climb into my passenger seat and use that door to get out. Turns out the window trim warped and caused this.
These two two issues along with the rattles and door seals falling off...I'm quite disappointed!

Squeezing brakes are a common problem. I have had them with my GLC. stuck door sounds like a bad mechanism or faulty release. Time for a trip back to dealer.
