Really ? I want one

I have an 07 S550 Sport, (107k miles) had it close to 5 years now and ive never had any hard mechanical issues except for one of the airbags going shortly after buying, only things ive done is replace batteries, parking brake motor and rear window regulators. other than those few things, car has been absolutely bulletproof and never has left me stranded. It amazes me every time i get behind the wheel.

There great cars just expensive to maintain,and so very frustrating at times but it's the price we pay to drive the BEST, that's why LEXUS is economically the much better buy by far....Im really thinking about that 2014 S550 4MATIC,but keeping it REAL i just might go with the LEXUS LS 460L,we'll see....

Wow. Is there anything that works on this car? I assume it wasn't taken care of properly. I have one 07 S550, has only 56k miles. Everything works like there is no tomorrow. Good luck 👍

What a nice gent.thanks I was on my way to buy this car.you helped me

to be honest i used the same car s 500 2007 for more than 5 years I haven't never faced any of the problem you said it is very relible car it's milge now about 200k mile which is about 320000km the only problem that ifaced its the car over starter i replaced in agency with 3 keys about 3000 dollar

The 07 was the worst year for the S class, it had too many kinks, never buy the first year of a new model with these cars, it will always have major issues, or the computer will not talk to the car to keep it in tip top shape. No matter how much maintenance you give it, this was a bad year for Mercedes, they should be ashamed of themselves. 2008 and newer had less problems, and they made parts easier to be fixed. I have the 08 model and I changed a few things on my own, blower motor, fuel pump, and upper radiator hose... but that's it. My AC wasnt charging either, and that was a nightmare... $500 later, it works... go figure...

The 2006 & 2007 W221 Mercedes Benz had these typical problems! However in 2009 when they updated & changed some of the engineering the W221 was alleviated of most of the problems you are showing. I hope someone on this channel can confirm or enlighten me….

Seems like maybe you bought this as a flood car and didn't know it. You know all those cars from the hurricanes don't get properly tagged as salvage. So they clean them up and roll it up north. But the corrosion starts to kick in from the flood water like the shocks bearings and anything that takes lubricant to operate correct plus electronics the wires get calcified
