New Model C-Class Rust and reliability problems

[HB]

Hi,

Are many people suffering from panels needing replaced on new style C-Class. I have a C200K Estate 2001 new model and so far I have had three serious rust problems... latest being the tail lift door at the back.... seems have all rusted through.

I would like to hear of any other new model C-Class problems. So far I have had..
Doors seals replaced
Fog Lamps
Engine Control Unit
Rear Parcel shelf
Serious Sweaks and rattles
Exhaust detached its self.
Thanks
HB

Heard of previous E-class but not new C-class having these kind of problems. But, not very surprising...
