CPO warranty about to expire, do I keep this vehicle?
So my CPO warranty is about to expire on my 2015 c300. I wanted to hear thoughts on whether to keep this car after the warranty is out? It has been pretty much a nightmare, with the wrist pin repair, constant rattles, CEL for the crankcase thing, door handle lights going out, cracked rims, alternator being replaced, etc. Things have been somewhat quiet lately, but I don't want to be sh*t out of luck without warranty and having an expensive repair. Those that have a higher mileage on the car, is there anything to watch out for? I've been following the maintenance manual for all the recommended services. Can I operate this without much risk for another year or two or should I dump this? its at 65k mileage right now.

I also have a CPO ‘15. EDIT: I am at 43k miles. A month after purchase I realized in need wrist pin repair. Pleasantly surprised how great this car ran before and after repair. Still didn’t trust the vehicle so I ended up purchasing an extended warranty till 4/2022. Can’t imagine not having a warranty with these cars, any cars really. My wife’s ‘15 Jeep Cherokee was returned as a Lemon. Her ‘17 Toyota Highlander needed a new tranny at 9k miles. The extended warranty was around $2k btw.

Dump it and get something new.
