Harry of Blue Mountains Ontario, PE Verified Reviewer Original review: July 6, 2018 Mercedes SLK 350 2012: Bad burning like smell entering car below steering wheel. Reported this to M.B. Canada and dealer when I bought the car. I was told to watch for oil drops, antifreeze etc for 3 years. Finally I found how I could demonstrate the smell to the dealer, who kept the car for over a month and drove 2000 km. Could not find the problem. Car was returned and I was told that they are unable to correct this problem and one of the managers will contact me. It might take a long time. That was August 2017. I wrote many e-mails, but nobody wants to talk to me. I am very unhappy with the people representing M.B. I also contacted Germany, but no help. I also contacted M.B. Germany, answer - "Contact M.B. Canada" which I did with no help from them. |

Stacy of Royal Oak, MI Verified Reviewer Original review: June 22, 2018 I have a 1999 SL500. Car will not start. Dealer says key is failing and it needs a new key. Mercedes no longer makes this key. Car is inoperable. I’m waiting to see if Mercedes does anything. The customer care line offered me a 1,000 credit towards a pre-owned or new Mercedes for 2 years. What am I going to do with that? I have a car that does not run and cannot be repaired due to their negligence |

Rohit of Fremont, CA Verified Reviewer Original review: May 30, 2018 This is my first time owning a Mercedes and I must say, it has been thoroughly disappointing!! Here's my issues with the Manufacturer and the Car: This is a plug-in hybrid so I expect it to charge at any Charge Point locations available. My C350e DOES NOT charge at my work location - I have 8 Charge Point stations here, none of them work for my car!! The charging stations work for 15+ different models though with no issues - Nissan Leaf, Chevy Bolt, Volt, Prius, Ford, BMW i3, i8... The list goes on. But my Mercedes WOULD NOT charge here. And when I call Mercedes Customer Service they told me as long as it charges at home that's all they care about. The Charge Point stations is not their concern. I used to own a VW eGolf and I charged it at work for last 3 years without any issues |

verifiablefacts: Not really...its rather a "Herd Mentality" thing & the fact that many Nigerians make their decisions based on what their mechanics say. We all know that Toyota is the easiest brand for Nigerian mechanics to repair; of course, not the cheapest to repair though. 4 Likes |

The truth is all cars have their own issues and you are right, most mechanic recommend Toyota cause it is easy to repair, however it is not the cheapest. Example tokunbo corrola 05 engine is 220k or so Tokunbo 2008 honda civic engine is 130k or so 1 Like |

Apart from the older mercs. Later models are endless money pits, they suffer poor resale value... toyotas are proven to be reliable.. a bit expensive than their peers.. though it has its own shortcomings. But buying a car depends on what you want/ your choice and what you can afford. The main purpose of buying a car is to have you, your family/friends/items and goods etc transported from point A to B... 2 Likes 1 Share |

Toyota cars burning 5W30 oil, just don't get it. Have no other option than to start using SAE palm oil. |

I think the op is doing a great job. Almost all Nigerians including myself believe that there's no other car besides Toyota. |
Re: Why Always Toyota with horrible problems? by radautoworks: 3:52am On Sep 03, 2019 |
The only reason Toyotas seem to have more faults is simple. There are more of them on the road. They are number 2 in sales in the US and number 1 in the world. Honda by comparison is number 4 in the US and number 7 in the world. If you however look at the PROPORTION versus other makes, it's less. It's like saying how come more accidents happen in the USA? There are MORE CARS there. Proportionally, they can not touch Naija An example using recalls https://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/data-mine/2014/02/12/toyota-leads-all-automakers-in-us-recalls http://www.goodcarbadcar.net/2019/01/u-s-auto-sales-brand-rankings-december-2018-ytd/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry 1 Like |
