2012 W-221 comments

60,000 miles and 9 years now having some issues. Front differential leak, driver active multi contour seat repair, coolant return hose small leak not major. I’ve test driven a number of other luxury flagships and still find the W-221 S Class to be more comfortable and road worthy. Local independent shop provides excellent service at a significant savings from MB dealership. Still love this car and do not regret purchasing even tho repair and maintenance costs are high!

This will be the last Mercedes I will ever buy. Ne

All the water hoses dry rotted, alternator failed, water pump failed, radiator failed, suspension failed, ball joints failed, hydraulic suspension failed, just to name a few. All this failed in a years and a half time. Spend around 15 thousand dollars. Fourth Mercedes, horrible car. If you have this module, get rid of it. When it start raining, it will pour.
