poor service and non delivery

Good day

It has been over 2 Months now that I have not received any response with regards to repairing my vehicle,
Honestly whats going on with your processes, I kept calm asking for help but I am not receiving any joy,
I even lodged a complaint to Mercedes Benz SA
Reference 1-[protected] which was lodged on 05/11/2019
I had spoken to david on 18/11/2019 again who said that this was left in Ashveers hands

Please advise as I am going to be taking the dealership up further with regards to this as I feel you have been given to much of time to rectify this error.

This has been carrying on for almost a year now and the vehicle was brand new.
It has been costing me time off from work as well as insurance being charged for a loan vehicle, I previously dealt with VW and they had no issues, They had loan vehicles for customers with insurance.

At this point I feel strongly that the vehicle must be taken back as I have not received any satisfaction from your dealership.
I have been there for more than 10 occassions for the same issue and not even your staff can find the resolution.
Every person I see says its going to be fine but when I leave the same problem occurs

17/02/2020

Good day
Name: Levashan Moodley
VIN: WDD1770462J046714
Make: Mercedes A250 amg line
Year: 2018
Mileage: 27000kms
Contact: [protected]

I am extremely frustrated as I have purchased my vehicle in 2018 October.
I have experienced issues with the car since 10 - 15000 kms, I reported this to Mercedes benz and they asked me to bring the vehicle in several times.
I have been to Mercedes benz pinetown for more that 10 times and my issue has not been resolved.
I spoke to the dealer principal who was not helpful at all, There only words every single time is we will get back to you but never do, I will book your car in but same issue persists.
I feel annoyed as you employ individuals in a dealership that cannot find a fault and yet they are the experts.
Last year in October/ November I was advised to log a complaint with Mercedes benz SA and they said they would get back to me In a week it is gone more than 3 Months and no response.
I am now getting a squeaking noise from my steering which started as squeaking breaks, My front and rear discs and breaks were replaced and yet the same noises occur.

David was contacted from Mercedes benz SA again on 18/11/2019 and asked what was going on, He advised me that Ashveer is handling case but no response from him either.
I followed up again with David and spoke to Ashveer on 19/12/2019 and still no response.
Reference: 1-[protected]

Please can I be advised on the way forward as I need my vehicle sorted

Kind regards

delay in parts from germany

My ML 350 bluetech is in Bloemfontein for a EGR Valve replacement, and a engin light check. I was informed by the service advisor that my parts will arrive on the 12/10/2019. Today i recieved a call, saying Germany do not have stock so the parts might be here only the 29/10/2019.

This is Mercedes flagship models and you dont even have these parts available in South Africa. This is very bad for mercedes and their brand. I expected much more from them. Now im sitting without a vehicle for almost a month.

Is this fair? I think there is no excuse for Mercedes in this regard. Dont think i will ever buy a mercedes again nor my family and friends.

improper repairing and parts used on brand new mercedes benz e63 2018 model from the mercedes benz (mb) tzaneen workshop.

My vehicle was towed to MB Tzaneen due to "transmission cooling" notifications on the car and when they alleged they had repaired it but they used super glue, masking tape, cable ties and they didn't remove the radiator instead, the superglued it, and that is not in line with MB standard, which could have also put my life at risk. I paid for their service in full, and for parts that they never even replaced. On the day of picking it up agh MB Tzaneen, it experienced the same problem as I was driving back to Gauteng from Tzaneen. Which led to it being towed to MB Fountains in Pretoria where in I incurred further charges to have the same vehicle repaired for the SAME problem.

I raised the matter up with MB to be refunded fully by MB Tzaneen as they failed to repair and use MB standard parts for my vehicle and also MB fountains ran a diagnostic report that also shows their disgraceful disservice.

    My vehicle was fitted with the standard Brabus Daytona Kit which only consist of the Brabus "B" batch and branding, Rims, they customized the end of the Exhausts with their logo. The Brabus kit installed does not consist of any interaction with the engine or the wagons software and they provided a diagnostic report stating the work done on the vehicle.

    MB SA blames Brabus on the engine failure and has refused to replace the engine when they car would repeatedly seize to function even prior the Brabus Kit installed, the vehicle would just shut down in the middle of the road. MB SA has insisted I purchase a new engine to the value of R1, 2 million as they won't work on the car. MB has further flagged the vehicle and also removed it from the motor plan which is very unfair with no reinstatement because the work done by Brabus does not come anywhere near the engine or interfere with any technical part of car and this proves that engine was faulty from the get go.

Mercedes-Benz Stratford — car repairs

My car now in repairs for 6 months. No communication from branch nothing, they answer finally to my email 22.07.19, which half of it is not true, that's why I have requested email communication, but instead they avoided that, now everything is turned their way. They telling me to pick up my car, when it is faaar from ready. It is new car 2018 used 2 monts and after their repair it looks like it was used for ages, there is scratches inside and out and etc. It is far beyond satisfactory. And Mercedes-Stratford behaviour is more that mocking it is disrespectful and humiliating! Bare in mind that in photos car ready for me to collect. I am not talking about damage done by repairer for body of car., as original damage was inside (attempted theft).

extended warranty

When my C180 reached its end of warranty term I was adviced to extend my warranty to 140000.My service times on the odometer was never exactly according to schedule such that at 120000 it was serviced at around 120500 meaning that the next service was only to be carried after the 1400000 extension which was an oversight from my adviser as well.Now I took my car in at 139990 for service but was refused because it wasn't yet its right time.That means I lost on my last service which lapsed at 1400000 and I feel I wasn't treated well being a long term brand loyal customer for over 13 years.

diplomat sales service

I am the Defence Attache in the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Romania and I am complaining against the Diplomatic Sales Department of Mercedes Benz Romania.
1. I was told by Mr. Ionut Rotaru, Direct Sales Manager, Mercedes-Benz Cars, that the Model 180 C, 1.6 benzine is not made in Germany anymore and I personally doubt that, because he insisted to buy model AMG 3.0 engine, the only produced in Germany as he said.
2.When I wanted to buy, as diplomat here in Romania, car model 180 E, 1.6 engine benzine that it is made in Germany, Mr. Ionut Rotaru told me that, it is not possible to have the car directly shipped to Egypt and again I am seriously doubt that, because the BMW Company offered that shipment without any hesitation.

As a result, the Egyptian Embassy will buy (4) BMW cars 5 series 1.6 instead of Mercedes cars as initially was intended.
Please clarify to me this inconvenient situation.

cla 200

I am writing to complain about the noise of my cla200 which was purchased in November, 2018. for the last 6 months, I went to the manufacturer where I bought my car (in Daxing district, Beijing, China) to do the "car check" almost every months. they haven't solve this noise problem till today. the worst thing is their unprofessional language and comments.. when I contacted with them in January, I consulted if this condition is a common thing happened to cla cars.. the consultant answered like, only picky customers would come to here and complain about the noise problem. Actually, I felt really sorry for coming to there as I had depression before. I thought it was because of my mental problem that I heard the noise...
just in the night after the check, I heard the dada noise again, it was really loud. I took videos then. and after I provide videos for the consultant in the 4s store again.
the technicians were willing to help me solve this problem. they stuck soft plaster stuff under the panel. it didn't work though.
finally, I met the technic director today. he told me the truth this time, as my car is an imported car, the current technic in china doesn't allow them to disassemble the panel and check it completely while he thinks it's some parts inside the panel are loosing.
please check the attached videos
Cheers

cla220 engine light

I have a CLA220 which is about 4.5years old now. In June, my turbo blew while on a long distance trip. This was replaced. Ever since then, my engine light has been coming on. I've lost count of the number of times I've been to the dealership. They changed multiple parts (in certain instances, the same part multiple times). After every "fix", my engine light still comes on a few days later. The most recent fix was for a part that had to be ordered from Germany. The cost was over R20, 000 but the engine still came on a few days later. I feel like the car needs to be looked at by a more senior mechanic. However, Mercedes still insists that it needs to be booked into a dealership. I've been back & forth to the dealership for 6 months and they haven't been able to successfully diagnose the problem. I am not sure how to escalate this further.

repairs not being done because of lack of parts, or so they claim.

My Mercedes C180 CGI died on Sunday 12 August 2018, with my family in tow. Now 15 October 2018 three months later, and my car is still out of service. I esculated the matter to Mercedes Head office last week, and the same old story as the repair agents Stanmar Motors in George. Part had to be ordered from Germany and has been tied up in Customs for the last six weeks. Mercedes must be pretty pathetic to not be able to resolve the issue. I have been driving Merc's for most of my adult life, but now finally I have been cured. This is the last one. If and when it is ever fixed, it will not return to my Garage. In the mean time I had to purchase another vechile and now the proud owner of a BMW X3. My advise to anybody now is buy anything else but not a Mercedes Benz. After sale support is nothing short of pathetic !

Mercedes Benz Rosebank — terrible experience - car service

I took in my car to Merc Benz in Rosebank on Friday 29 Dec 2017 for a service. The droppinf off of my vehicle went just fine.
I did get a call getting an update from my Service Advisor during the day.
Later in the day I get a call at 14h09 asking if I can be collected. I made my way downstairs around 14h20 to give them time as they were literally down the road from my office.
I was only picked up at 14h42.
I then had to wait a further 45 min at the dealership as my car was not ready. I was picked up too early!
I finally get my car, before I leave the dealership I wanted to plug in my phone to charge only to find that my car charger (Snug - quick charging) was missing.
The service advisor was helpful and helped me look but nobody seemed to know where it was - even though a Car charger was listed on the list of items that where in my car when it came in.

I am absolutely apaulled at the level of customer service I receievd from Mercedes Benz as I expect so much better from them.

Mercedes Benz — overcharged for wrong things

My wife had a mechenical problem with our mercedez e200, around the 19 Of September 2017, she was on her way from Kimberly. The incident happened in Wolmaranstad, the car was towered to New vaal motors in vereenigeng and we were told that the problem was (water cooling pipe) the surprising thing was the car was not striped at all, on the 04 October we went to collect the car and paid R12971.40, on arrival my wife informed about the yellow engine sign that come up and go on the car. I thought that this was not serious but still Phoned the lady who assisted us Ms Angelique Buckle who was not availble and left a message for her to call back, of which she never did.
on the 21 October 2017 i got a call that my mother was in a bad state at a hospital in Taung we decided to travel around five in the afternoon on our way to Klerksdorp the car started over heating again. We had to return back to Johannesburg and cancel our journey. This made me very angry because i had a reason to trust that professional people who charges a lot money had fixed my car. Out of frustration i took the car to M2 City because thats where i normally service the same car.
They came back to me on the 23 October that there was a valve missing hence the yellow sign on the engine and quoted me R 5268.60 for it, unfortunately it was only going to be here on Thursday. i received another call on friday saying they have tested the car on a short distance and it was okay, but when the attempted a long distance the car was overheating again. Finally i received another quotation for R29176.20 excluding some extra R7000.00 because apparrently the problem is topgasket.
I just feel this is too much to bear and confusing worse this i cannot afford.

I kindly seek your intervention and assistance. during the first interuption i had to hire a car for my family.

kind regards

Mercedes Benz — cars

hi, there are many classic Mercedes-Benz in Iran, Iranian people love Mercedes from old time till now. from any model like vans to sedans. but the ridiculous matter in Iran is that there are no original parts of any classic model exist. all parts are scraps that come from other countries like United Arab Emirates . My grand fathers owned two beautiful Mercedes that are getting pretty old & useless because of this lake of good parts. I think this is a disaster for Mercedes co.. your official distributor is just focusing on new models and the don't care about classic models. now, I have a new car, a E20-w124-1987. It is a beautiful car and I love it but I am struggling with its old parts that I can NOT replace with original and good parts. I expect from Mercedes co. to fix this problem for me.

this was my message to Daimler Co. 4 months ago. since then, they did not make any progress except some phone call from Iran's official distributer .
My problem with Mercedes-Benz co. is with my classic car. I know mechanics that about 40 years ago were Mercedes's representative in Iran and now they are so poor because of your official distributor. your official distributor doesn’t care about Mercedes-Benz classic cars, the cars that with proper parts and maintaining are so much better than new Iranian cars and Chinese cars that these days are very common in Iran. They may tell you that they so eager to support classic cars but they don’t, according to the knowledge that I have and precedents that Setareh Iran co. showed in these years.
I assure you those mechanics that still have the commitment to Mercedes's brand is so much more trustworthy than Setareh Iran co. in this part.
I expect Mercedes-Benz to do some serious action about this situation in Iran.
I will send this message until you show me some progress.
