NHTSA Complaint #10543266 — 2013 MERCEDES-BENZ E330

WHEN YOU START UP THE CAR THERE IS A LOUD TAPPING/RATTLING NOISE SOUND. YOU CAN ALSO HEAR THIS NOISE WHILE IDLING IN TRAFFIC. IF I STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE NOISE APPEARED TO GET LOUDER. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT M BENZ HAS RECTIFIED THE PROBLEM IN THE ENGINE BY PUTTING INSULATION. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN TO OTHER OWNERS WHO HAD TO REBUILD THE ENTIRE MOTOR IN ODOR TO STOP THE NOISE. AS A CONSUMER, I AM ASKING FOR YOUR HELP BECAUSE I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR AS IT GIVES OFF AN ODOR AND I AM NOT SURE IF THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE LEAKING. PLEASE HELP AS I DO NOT WANT TO PUT MYSELF OR MY FAMILY IN DANGER. *TR
