Buying a used C-Class in Canada

Know the body styles

The current C-Class is a sedan only. Earlier generations included a coupe and cabriolet, which are now the CLE, and AMG C 63 models, including from 2024 a 671 hp four-cylinder plug-in hybrid.

Check the recalls

On any 2019 to 2026 C-Class, confirm the door lock recall (2026-364) was done. On 2023 and 2024 models, also check the fuse box recall.

Check the remaining coverage

The 4-year, 80,000 km warranty covers the powertrain too, so consider a certified pre-owned C-Class or an extended warranty on an older car.
