LEMON???

Sorry, if this is repeated
I also posted in "new s class"

I bought NEW a 2015 s63 fully loaded..MSRP 178K.....
(delivered 10/14)

I have has numerous issues, some fixed some not.. Ex
-Gas cap fell off 1st month
-also misaligned
-Rear bumper misaligned bad
(took 3 tries to get it right)
-Wind noise on driver side
(never fixed correctly)
-headlights always fog
-doors were misaligned
-USUAL stall thing at low speeds
(says there's a fix now)
-USUAL tranny issues jerk etc
(say it's a normal sports car.. Lol)
-Excessive heat in armrest & mouse
-radio changes station at high speed turns
(2x unsuccessful fix)
-clicking noise when turning at low speeds both directions L/R from from wheels
(3x unsuccessful)

Car has been in the service approx 70 days...
Any ideas of chances of getting a lemon???
Also they are saying because I have a 15.. & cant find any comparable they can't do anything to assist me with a 17...hence forcing me into a litigation or taking a 63 not desired or a maybach, which I don't really care for...
(unless it's the Brabus 900..lol..

Any thoughts would be much appreciated...

2016 S63 AMG Coupe
I feel your pain...I think. I purchased a loaded S63C and have had a bunch of issues.

1) front tires skip and jump when in tight turns
2) Running rough - had to turn back and go home one day heading to work. - been in the shop three times for bad running engine.
3) Mbrace does not work AT ALL
4) transmission downshifts were very hard, but that seems to have subsided

Funny, now every time I start the thing, I cross my fingers! I've been a BMW guy but wanted something different. My MB is beautiful and rides very nice...when it's running of course.

Good luck to ya,

Yes, the interior of Mercedes just is head & heals over jag, audi, BMW, pretty much everything on the road.. Lol...

Honestly, I *****ed & made sure every complaint was handled & status correctly after every instance...
I can't complain on the deal they gave me to make up for inconvenience & disappointment
