This Year's Model Updates:

The 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class gets a new audio unit that includes an in-dash memory card reader. The standard single-CD player has been replaced by a six-CD/DVD changer with video playback, and there's a new hard-drive-based navigation system that includes 4GB of storage for music. In addition, all Luxury trim levels (except the E320 Bluetec) can get 4Matic all-wheel drive at no extra cost. Sport sedans can also add the Sport Package at no charge. However, Mercedes has reduced the availability of some features. Notably, the heated/ventilated front seats are now only available on the E63 AMG.

Pros:
  • Sleek and dignified design inside and out, pleasing ride quality, variety of powerful and fuel-efficient engines, sophisticated safety features, all-wheel drive available on both sedans and wagons.
Cons:
  • More expensive than competitors, handling not quite as athletic as engine performance, COMAND interface can be unintuitive.

  • hopeless mercedes benz - 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Never buy a mercedes unless you want to overpay for a completely unreliable vehicle. Buying one is like losing money, and keeping one is like throwing good money after bad! I bought a brand new 2009 E350. Six months of ownership, and 3 problems, 2 trips to the shop, 1 tow, 1 battery recharge...and worse of all, tons of aggravation and frustration dealing with Mercedes Benz.

  • Bad wheel quality on MB E350 - 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    We bought one certified pre-owned 2009 E350 at MB Encino, California on 3/27/2010. Only drive about one month and 860 miles, there is a front tire pressure problem that was caused by a crack inside of the wheel (rim). We drive this new car very carefully, never hit anything since there is no damage on the outside wheel, also how to we hit or damage inside of the wheel? That is a parts quality problem. MBs warranty should cover it but they dont. Please think about MBs wheel quality, before you plan to purchase a MB, since we found couple cases report about it already. Also, MBs customer service is not friendly, do not answer customer phone call, and do not care customer concern.

  • not reliable - 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
    By -

    Since purchasing my E350 in June 2009, the engine has failed twice. The interior rattles causing annoyance. The car has been back into the garage for noises coming from rear and still has not been resolved by the garage. To be honest with you I am totally fed up with this car as it has caused me so much inconvenience in time and money. Furthermore this car is totally useless in snow conditions because it is rear wheel drive. I strongly recommend consumers not to buy this model. If the garage i bought this vehicle from does not do anything soon then i will be taking further action against mercedes. They certainly do not live up to their name.
