Mercedes C-Class W205 - Check For These Issues Before Buying

What problems await you after buying a used Mercedes C-Class (W205 2014-2021)

Internal Engine problems are largely due to using regular gas....premium gas is required in this engine.

Piston cracking is now becoming an issue in 50 k miles vehicles

Any experience and/or solution to the ‘collision prevention assistance plus inoperative’ error?

I totally agreed with you. I got w205 used at 65000km when I bought it. It it totally a bomber. I drove to 75k, the water broken. At 85k roof can not be close properly , I heard wind noise from top of my head . 90k my w205 music base is not functional 😅 and arm rest silver start to peel off. Oh forgot my front driver side market light is on forever. It's lemon . Gas cap string also broken. My car only has 98k

Hi , I have a c220-2015 and does the w205 have an electric steering lock ? I can’t seem to get the steering to lock after removing the key from the ignition switch.

W205 C300 least reliable car I've ever owned. The "common minor" issues you speak of in the W205 that you mention as if they're not a big deal ARE a big deal. You pay premium money for crap quality. Mercedes is a joke.
