Thoroughly re-conditinoed CPO e350
Been lurking in the forum for a while but first time poster.
Looking to get a cpo e350 either 2015 or 2016 and came across this:
https://www.fjmercedes.com/inventory/certified-used-2015-mercedes-benz-e-class-e-350-sport-rear-wheel-drive-sedan-wddhf5kb3fb143976?utm_source=cars.com&utm_medium=r eferral&utm_campaign=deeplink
Looking at the car description and carfax I see that not only 4 tires are replaced but engine and transmission mounts are also replaced at 27k miles.
Is this a good or bad thing? Should I be happy that I won't need to deal with the mounts for a while or should I be worried that the car has been abused such that parts are failing prematurely.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

I wouldn't be concerned about it. Be sure to check the maintenance history. Even though they did a CPO inspection, you could always take it to another mechanic. If there are any issues, be sure to bring them up pre sale.

2014 E550-sold 😩
New mounts are nice. Don’t worry about them being replaced. Like Fisch said, try to get them to share the VMI with you so you can see the maintenance history.
