Can someone tell me what to do with my c63s?

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your time to view this post.

I bought my C63s Edition 1 at Mercedes Surrey, BC, Canada (I live in Calgary, AB) on July, 2015. after about one-year driving experience, I am started feel bad for this purchase.

I have took my car to my local dealership about 6 times in last two month to repair the same problem (all the sensors in the rear end did not work). And on last Sunday, my rear view camera did not work and I sent the car to the dealership on Monday morning for plan B service and repair the problem. On later that day, the services and repair were done, and before I drove back home, the engine light came on and the engine started shaking. That happened before I left the dealership.

BTW, My car does not have the edition 1 decal and there are some more small problems that the dealership can not figure out (like the weird sound coming from the B pillar etc. but I guess these are normal on a c63?). And someone registered the AMG private lounge using my car vin number.

I love this car but I don't know what going to happen next. Anyone have this kind of experience on their cars? What did you do about it? I have contacted Mercedes Benz Canada for these issues but they seem not really care about it.
I am thinking if they can replace a car for me or I can add more payment for another type car instead. Is that possible?

Hopefully someone can give me suggestions on this.

Thanks,
Donglin Xie

Contact MBUSA with your experience/complaints. I'm not sure about lemon laws in Canada. Or you could also trade it in on another car but would lose a decent amount of money

I have told Mercedes Benz Canada for the trade before. I said if the car is repaired and everything is good, I will definitely keep it since I love this car (yeah, bought it and drive at somewhere winter last about half year). But the car just....

I have to wait and see what is actually happened to engine light today.

Wow, thats shocking!

Did you buy the car brand new?

I would definitely complain and try to get out of that car ASAP... see if they can do something if you were to switch to a new car.

I had the 2015 C63s sedan when it first came out.... I had consent issues with the car and was at the dealership every other day. I can imagine the feeling.

Very weird...how or why did someone else get a hold of your VIN and use it to register on the AMG PL ???

Ask your dealer about it, or maybe someone on the street wrote down your VIN from your windshield either way you should sort that out and don't let a stranger use your VIN for their purposes.

Initial releases of entirely new models are usually plagued with problems, hence if not leasing or only opting for temporary ownership best to hold off until tail end production units IMHO.

Hope you get it all sorted out one way or another, all the best with it.

I have change the profile of my private lounge so I lost that guys information. (Stupid action) but I don't really care about this.

The car is leased and right now I really want to buy another car instead keep lesasing this one. I am trying to get my down payment back (I have paid 45500 down. Another silly action) and add more payment for a used 507 (some how the old model attract me more than the new one) or a new GLE63s coupe tho.

I am so tired to spend my "summer time" to repair a car can only drive in summer.

Thanks

I'm really sorry to hear this buddy. I have faced something similar, all the rattles and noises coming from the cabin were not fixed and they make it seem as if there's nothing and I'm only imagining

Sometime they told me they heard noting. Once they found where the noise coming from, they can't fix it.
but the noise does not bother me at all, just tune up the music and done.

haha I agree but it reached to a limit where even if I tune up the music I can still hear it ! the one that annoys me the most is the noise coming from the roof (in the back beside that sensor for parking in the middle of the roof, if you know what I'm saying)

Mine is at B piller behind the seatbelt. Close to my ear and annoying as f***.

Well, I think it is common on C63 since the hard suspension system lol.

I have a feeling that something is left loose inside the B pillar. this happened to me once I first got my car last year, there was a rattling noise coming from the sensors behind the rear view mirror (there's a small boxlike thing which has wires and cables inside, which I assume are for the presafe system and 360 camera maybe.. ). when I peeked inside, the wires weren't tied together, and were hitting the sidewalls every time the road is bumpy ...

I'm surprised many people have the same issues in the same places ..
that was solved by tied up all the wires together, that's it
for me its not behind the display, its somewhere on the chrome strip between the center console and the right cluster (RPM)

I had this problem. Dealership fixed although occasionally a faint noise does resurface.

I believe it's related to the rubber window/door seal rattling against the window or frame.

I have also the same - I took the back parking sensor out, but it was not that. Irritating noise, somewhere from the roof, very difficult to locate.

HOLY ****! what were you thinking? maybe you have too much money to care about a little amount here and there.
Next time do your research while leasing and never ever put so much money down on a LEASE unless you are purchasing or buying it outright.
