From owner reports, verbatim
I purchased my car in April of this year 2022 and have driven less than 10K miles. The tread of my front two tires has already worn down to less than 3/32 compared to the rear wheel 6/32. Driving conditions are normal and according to Mercedes this is known issue. This exceeds normal wear and tear and should be a safety concern.

From owner reports, verbatim
According to a MB USA representative, the warning light instructing me not to drive over 50 miles per hour was related to my suspension. In addition to the warning light, I have repeatedly expressed my concerns about a loud creaking noise coming from the wheel area while driving, turning the corner, pulling in and out of driveway, etc. However, South Bay Mercedes is never able to duplicate the noise or identity the warning. I have also contacted MB USA on multiple occasions and they confirmed that I have three (3) open cases, but refuse to provide me with the case number and fail to respond as stated during each call. The suspension warning light has been coming on, intermittently, a few months after I purchased the vehicle and South Bay Mercedes only suggested a tire change and service appointments while blatantly disregarding the problem. Now I am getting a warning light that states, Service Required Do Not Shift Gears Visit Dealer. I have had this car less than a year as it was purchased brand new, and South Bay Mercedes/MB USA have been giving me the runaround for months; only corresponding to schedule upcoming service appointments. I have since changed my front tires, but continue to get warning messages. I have repeatedly expressed concerns about my safety and never received a response from MB USA.
