SOOOO MANY PROBLEMS!

So...i've had my 2007 CLS 550 for about 8-9 months now and i've had so many problems! When I first got the car it was having problems with the (what's that safety traction control called which you can turn on and off on the front dash) and I had to take it in for that like a day after I got my car. IT also had problems with its CD player and they fixed it.....so....I also have taken it for so many nagging issues....for example my CD player (not the 6-disc changer) stopped working! I didn't know what happened....and it was a faulty CD player...I had problems connecting regularly on the tele-aid service and they had to fix that....i've had other issues to which I have had to take multiple times such as my window was sqeaking and they fixed it...2 days later it started squeaking again (passenger side) and now they said they will have the part to replace it by next week. Also...when I was driving slow the car would make a squeaking sound and they replaced and fixed that....the middle holder (both the cup and the inside part) the cup thing came out for some reason but I was able to put it back in but the inside the item that folds on the way bottom had broken but they fixed that but it doesn't seem like it's nromal....but the BIGGEST thing was my sunroof went out! lol...my sunroof I had opened it and it opened but somehow got stuck on the plastic piece and wouldn't open so they had to replace that so I don't know how my sunroof got f'ed up....it's funny I love the car though...anyone had nagging problems like this? BTW...the only thing about the car I don't like is that it is hard to get freaky in the back...

it's a love/hate relationship with my CLS....mostly love

I had my entire driver side door replaced due to a crack. Both window regulators replaced, center console replaced, rear view mirror replaced, AC issues, head rest won't stop rattling, rock chip protectors turning yellow (replaced twice).....the list goes on. The dealership has been very good with my complaining and taken care of most of the problems.

The car still puts a smile on my face every time I see it.

First time hearing that on the 2007 CLS. The 2006 CLS are known to have tons of problems but by 2007 most problems are fixed. How many miles were on the car when you got it? I ordered mine and brought it home right after it was delivered to the dealer and have not had any problems with it. 14,000 miles right now.

When I got my car it had like 10 miles on it? Something like that. I now just hit 11k miles.

I guess it's just the luck of the draw...! I love the car. Most of the problems have been little things. Heck...I have had a loaner car so many times but hey....I saved a lot of miles for my lease right? lol..

Interesting, I have not had any problems at all (nothing but scheduled maintenance) and recently passed 30000 miles.

No problems with mine. I got it in December 2005, and it only has 20,000 miles, so I guess I dont drive it enough to experience these problems. I had oil leaking from the engine, and I found out that my gasket seal in the engine cover (on both sides) went bad. They said that that was a common problem for CLS's and E's.
