No matter how Mercedes claims their build quality and reliability have improved over the years. Nothing can beaten the true ownership experience. We have encountered the first problem with our long-term E-Class. When we were driven on a highway, there were all sorts of warning lights came on like christmas tree on the dashboard. We called Mercedes roadside assistance for help, they were gladly tow back to service center for a close inspection. In the meantime, we offered a B200 as a loaner car before they finally diagonsed and fixed the issue.
On the next update. We will report on what problem have Mercedes found with our long-term E350.
