strange... and a bummer.... can't really help you much.... sounds like something i would definitely take into MB or someone to look at tho.

could be some type of problem with the soft close feature. I think it uses some type of vaccum to suck the door shut. I checked out this post because I remember not after 2 days of having my car, I brought it to a good buddy's house who managed to pull the door handle on the passenger side (which was locked) and took the chrome trim right off the top of the handle! I was so pissed I couldn't believe he had already fkd up my new car! I'm sorry your having trouble though, but for this 1, I'd vist the stealer.

I just replaced my drivers side handle and the hardest part was sourcing the handle and the lock cylinder. Remember CL trim is somewhat unique and after finding a Black handle we found that the lock cylinder is no longer serviced in colored finishes you must have it painted. 300$ parts 100 labor 75 paint.

If so inclined the only way to find out whats goin on is to take off the door panel and have a look. Could be as simple as a plastic elbow connector in the linkage. Wont know till the panel is off though.
