  • I wont buy another one - 2000 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
    By -

    My 2000 Mercedes-Benz S500 has been a huge disappointment. In May 2000 I experienced many problems with it, at only 7,468 miles. Again on 8/26/2000 I experienced multitude of problems, at 11,114 miles. And again on 9/2001 at 19,492 miles. On 10/18/02 at 28,231 miles I had to pay $376 in addition to warranty covered items. On 3/03 I experienced more problems, including a defective "adc." In 2004 the electric seat became inoperative and left front door control module replaced to a tune of $980. On 11/13/04 I had to get a new air suspension pump for $500. This cars fuel gauge is still inoperative, I have not fixed it yet. Ill measure it with a stick rather than pay for a new one. This is my second and final Mercedes. Its hard to believe you can pay $90,000 for a car you only drive 8,000 miles/year and be faced with this lemon.

  • Poor delivery, poor dealership - 2000 Mercedes-Benz S-Class

    Maintenence expense for this car exceeded $10,000 in the first two years. The quality was a disgrace. Major components had to be replaced. Finally found an independent machanic who virtually rebuilt it for us. Now it is a great car. Mercedes should be ashamed of the quality of this car.

  • This car was created as a joke from MB - 2000 Mercedes-Benz S-Class

    Its like a cardboard......falls apart probably as I wright this just standing in parking lot.....What broke: transmission at 100k, cooling fans, airmatic pump, gear box shifter, navigation system, tape player, 1 door locking mechanism, and thats after i bought the car used, I would imagine previous owner had nightmares too. One of my friends had 00 or 02 model and had to lease Honda Accord because this MB was simply NOT drivable due to constant breakdowns

    I love this car. It is a beautiful vehicle with lots of power. It is great for running the kids around to take my wife out for the evening.

  • Looks Good but Wears Poorly - 2000 Mercedes-Benz S-Class

    I just traded my 2000 S500. During the 60,000 miles I drove it, it suffered from too many expensive defects for me to recommend the car. I had the fuel tank pulled at 14000 miles, the computer replaced at 40000 miles, the mass air flow censor at 60000 miles and the entire steering system - rack, pump etc at 50000 miles. All in all too many repairs.

    This the finest automobile I have ever owned. I am looking forward to the release of the 2006 late next year. My only problem with the car has been the electonics.I have had to replace the dash console twice. Another feature of the Mercedes is the dealer service. I have had the car serviced all over the eastern USA and each experience has been wonderful.

  • Best Car Ive Ever Owned - 2000 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
    By -

    This car has been rock solid for over the past year I have driven it. Interior noise is extremely low and the car runs very well out on the highways and open roads. Car feels "big" when driving it around town but I have had absolutely no problems with the vehicle.
