There's an official bulletin from Mercedes for those defective trims. Just replaced mine under warranty last week.

apparently this happens from the front door coming lose and becoming misaligned and snagging this trim. I am going to personally tighten that bolt (I'll post the video from a service department showing it when I get a chance.

Mine wasn't loose and still the weather trim broke because of its poor quality.

I believe you are talking about a different issue, the one about the loose hinge screw:

IDK both issues seems conflated with the same problem

Had the same issue with the weatherstripping and door being loose. Thanks for the info. Dealer needs to replace the parts but going to try and tighten the doors myself. Some BS if you ask me. Wouldn't think a 50k car should have these problems.

This finally happened on MY23 AMG C43. Build date was around February 2023 for reference. Around 3500 miles

Just the weather trim or the misalignment too?

I think it's both. I have heard a weird creaking in the b pillar area recently when entering my driveway that I never noticed before.

My car doesn't technically fall under the code I guess - but it's right on the date cusp so maybe the cut off is just a little gray.

Yup.
Called dealer, took them 1.5 months to get the part in and 2 days to fix it.

I also was hearing the same creaking in mine from the B pillar. Also had the issue with the weather stripping. My car is currently stuck at the dealership as they wait for the parts to come in. I dropped it off Monday, should hopefully have the car back this Thursday.

They aren’t sure if the door misalignment is the cause of the creaking but the tech did confirm he heard something. They mentioned it could potentially be in the headboard area as that is another complaint for this generation? Not sure, but they confirmed they’ll find it and take care of it. Will follow up with what they say.

My creaking in b pillar is better after I ripped the rest of the seal off. So I'm really not sure what cause or reason for any of this.

BigBodyBH

So I got my car back. The weather stripping is fixed and they realigned my door to ensure the same issue doesn't happen again, however the creaking from the B pillar area is still there. They said they didn't hear anything when they took it on a test drive, however you can still notice it when driving slow over speed bumps. Going to try and get a solid video recording of it to then send to the service advisor to see if they can try and pinpoint the issue again.

Other than that, if anyone else takes their car into the dealer for this same weather stripping issue make sure they order the chrome/gloss black trim that goes at the bottom of the window for the rear left door. As part of the repair for the weather stripping they have to take that piece of trim off, and when they do it has a very strong chance of breaking the clips so the original piece can't be put back on. So essentially this repair requires 2 parts to complete. I've included the part numbers below:

Sealing Rail - 206-730-31-00
Window Trim Molding - 206-690-67-00-27
