We have an updated reliability stat for the W212 E-Class based on owner experiences through September 30, 2010. Other sources of car reliability information won't cover the months since April until the summer or even fall.

With a reported repair frequency of 41 repair trips per 100 cars per year, the new E-Class has improved so it is almost "better than average."

Thank you, once again, to everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in February and May.

Appreciate your doing these, but when it was 41 per 100 in February, it was "almost better than average," now at 39 per 100 it "remains about average." What does it take to get to better than average?

mkaresh

37 or 38. It is very close. Of course, if it were 37 then it would be better than average--but not far from "average."

I recently completed the survey based on repairs/service through end of March 2013. Does it go through March 2013 or did I do it wrong?
I do recommend that as many people as possible participate in these surveys. You can also access specific repairs performed.

Thank you, Michael, for posting this information. It's good to see that the W212 just keeps improving on its reliability. My 2015 E250BT 4M thus far has been flawless.

topspin2000

What happened to the 2013 model year? It seems to skip right over it.

DerekACS

Most likely the sample size is too low. Needs more members with 2013s to sign-up.

El Cid

Hopefully they are better, but it is possible that as they age, more problems will begin to surface. That is pretty much what happened with the 2010 and 2011.
