Source: NHTSA vehicle records, recall and complaint snapshot 2026-10-18. Manufacturer communications retain their separately dated source snapshot. Counts are submitted records, not failure probabilities. One vehicle can appear in several campaigns.
Complaint model names counted: C 300. Recall model names counted: C 300, C 300 4MATIC, C300. Complaint records are deduplicated by ODI number; vehicle recalls are counted by distinct campaign number for this year.
Model-year records
What the 2022 record can and cannot say
The 2022 record contains 25 submitted complaints. The median across this model's matched years is 29 reports. Neither number accounts for vehicle sales or time on the road. Source names: C 300. NHTSA source snapshot: 2026-10-18.
Electrical System is the most common displayed component tag, with 7 reports (28% of this year's submitted complaints). One complaint can name several components. The share describes reports, not the probability of a failure.
Engine replacement or major internal repair has the highest arithmetic midpoint for parts in the applicable planning estimates, at $8,000 before labor. A paid plan can help only if the component and cause qualify; check existing manufacturer coverage first.

What can the data tell you about 2022 Mercedes-Benz C 300?
No model-specific individual-repair price keys are retained for Mercedes-Benz C 300 in this library. Generic parts and labor estimates, public records and separate annual cost references may still be available.
Individual-repair price scopeGeneric inputsModel-level range presence is a source-coverage check. It does not confirm that a repair fits every engine or model year.

30 of 44 repair categories have verified national benchmarks; 14 retain planning assumptions. Old model-specific ranges were removed because this refresh did not reverify them.

Sources and methods
What each source tells you
NHTSA records: 25 submitted complaints, 9 recalls and 365 manufacturer communications. These are report counts, not failure probabilities.
EPA vehicle details: 6 matched fuel-economy configurations help us leave out repairs for equipment this model year does not have.
Repair-cost estimates: We model 33 applicable repairs beyond normal wear items, using published benchmarks where available plus parts and independent-shop labor assumptions. These ranges are not dealer quotes, repair-shop quotes or invoices.
