Mercedes-Benz ML350 Problems
Rough Shifting of Automatic Transmission
Model Years Affected: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
Average Mileage: 54,152 mi (1,000 mi - 89,000 mi)
Vehicles equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission may
develop a rough shifting condition, most commonly going up from first to second
gear and going down from third to second or second to first gear. Our
technicians tell us this is due to an internal component failure. Mercedes has
released updated parts; the transmission will need to be removed and
disassembled to complete the necessary repairs.
Check Engine Light Due to Faulty Camshaft Adjuster Solenoid
Model Years Affected: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
Average Mileage: 65,144 mi (20,000 mi - 125,211
mi)
The camshaft adjuster solenoid (which is related to the
variable valve timing system) may fail or timing chain/balance shaft components
may wear, resulting in illumination of the Check Engine Light and various
drivability issues. Mercedes-Benz has released a service bulletin outlining
specific repair instructions depending on fault codes stored.
Stalling and/or “Crank no Start” Due to Failed Crankshaft
Position Sensor
Model Years Affected: 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007,
2008, 2009, 2010
Average Mileage: 83,526 mi (38,366 mi - 145,000
mi)
The engine may develop a stalling and/or no start condition
due to a failed crankshaft position sensor.
The Brake Light Warning Message May be Displayed
Model Years Affected: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010

The brake light warning message for a burned out bulb may be
displayed. Our technicians tell us the tail lamp housing may melt and distort
causing a poor connection at the bulb. The lamp housing should be replaced to
correct this condition.
The Door Locks May Cycle Rapidly
Model Years Affected: 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006
Average Mileage: 89,139 mi (50,750 mi - 170,000

Miscellaneous -- Verified
Electrical switches in the door latches can fail, causing
the door locks to rapidly actuate up and down multiple times when the locks are
activated by either the keyless remote or door lock switch. The affected door
latch should be replaced to correct this concern.
