Default Switched from a Mercedes CLA

Here's my IS250. I had a CLA that Mercedes is buying back because it had too many issues. Really glad it happened because I like the IS so much more. From the ride quality to the interior it's just an all around better car.

I saw that too. Lucky is all I've got to say. Ventilated seats would be great especially in TX.

2 days after I bought it the ECU freaked out and threw out all sorts of errors and I lost a lot of functionality on the car. The check engine light turned on, traction control stopped working, ECO stopped working, blind spot assist stopped working and all sorts of other issues. Took it to the dealer and 2 days later I got it back. A week later the issue happened again and it spent 3 weeks at the dealer because they couldn't figure out what was wrong. That's when MBUSA agreed to buy it back because I told them I was very concerned about the long term ownership of the vehicle. Just last week the check engine light came on again and that same night I went to buy my IS250. I couldn't be happier with it. I surrender my CLA on Monday and I can't wait the get that car out of my life.

Not surprised. MB have had their share of electrical gremlins. My co-worker's 2010 C-class started having electrical issues a few months after ownership. He got it fixed, but the gremlins came back recently. Now he has a Nav screen that doesn't always turn on or mechanically tilt up (it's the tilt-up version), his sunroof that opens up when it feels like it, passenger window switch that intermittently works, and the list goes on. He can't wait to get rid of it to make the switch over to reliability. And the car is 3.5 years old with just 60k km.

Not sure about the rest of the line but the CLA's voice recognition is horrible. I tested it several times in my friends car and never correctly picked up any words I spoke.

Lexus' voice recognition works wonderfully, sometimes I'm amazed it understood what I say.

Also that engine-idle-turn-off thingie is horrible, but might be restricted to CLA. It's so rough when it restarts, jerks you into motion, not a comfortable ride.
