Hi everyone.
So last week I ordered 5 Mercedes C300e estate from Mercedes for my works team.
The dealership kindly sent me a c300e to demo. The good news was it drove lovely and I average 62mpg over 580 miles with one full 55 mile range charge.
The bad news,
The car broke down in the service station. I couldn’t get the car out of park. Instead it kept saying malfunction. Press foot on brake to move to D. But nothing I did worked.
I had to call Mercedes out. The RAC came, took a look at the model and said that he can’t touch it. I then had to wait for recovery to come as the RAC guy left within 5 minutes of arriving. No one contacted me from Mercedes to update me and I ended up abandoning the car (as I had my 20 month old son with me) paying £180 for a taxi home. Mercedes called me 24 hours later to say they still haven’t collected the car.
My question is;
Does anyone else have a c300e 2022 and have experienced similar issues?
Is that normal service from Mercedes since Covid?
Cheers and all the best
Chris
