2010 Mercedes benz C300 Structure Body Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1428298
Internal NHTSA #	11051119
Manufacurer	Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
Brand	MERCEDES BENZ
Model	C300
Model Year	2010
File date	01/09/17
Component	STRUCTURE:BODY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Driver side door handle broke. This was not due to excessive force, unusual wear or use, etc. The part can only be repaired by replacing the entire interior door panel. Dealer is aware of the problem and knows that the piece is faulty and prone to breaking. The cost to fix it is nearly $1,000 to repair. In order to exit the vehicle, i have to roll down my window, open the door from the exterior, roll my window back up and then exit. This is a major safety hazard if i needed to exit the vehicle quickly due to a fire, accident, etc. When the handle broke, the vehicle was stationary (i had just parked), i went to open the door and there was no movement of the door. There was no sound indicating a break, it simply did not open the door any longer. When researching the problem, i found additional evidence of this being a common issue among other mb owners and they were equally aghast at the fact that this had not been recalled and addressed due to the severe nature of the issue.
