Description of the problem	Two issues, purchased a certified pre owned vehicle. At 8900 miles, we noticed the car was idling very rough on a cold start, almost the sound of a diesel. The sound would resolve after 10 minutes of driving. Service informed us that there was a recall on the rods and pistons. We had the engine rebuilt, and the noise is the same, if not worse. The car sounds nothing like laterbuild '15 models or '16 models, nor does it run as smoothly. Secondly, 5 occurrences involved inoperative collision prevention assist warnings and inoperative anti-skid warnings appearing on the dash causing the car to reduce operating speed to 20mph max. Car needed to be shut off and restarted after a 5 minute period each time these warnings appeared, in order to drive over 20mph. The vehicle was serviced for these warnings twice. The first service diagnosed the car with a coding issue. The second, involved replacing modules. This all occurred during the two months of owning the car. We notices several similar complaints regarding the early build 2015 c300s, and decided to cut our losses and purchase another vehicle. We did not feel safe in that car.
