Mercedes Benz window and wiper problems

Owners have filed 887 complaints with NHTSA about the glass, mirrors and wipers on Mercedes Benz vehicles — 3% of everything reported about the brand, across 150 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Mercedes Benz E350, worst in 2008.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
