I don't buy a car by CR ratings, but if they say expect electrical problems with your Mercedes C350 at least I won't be surprised.

Do I note a tad of bias here? I'm neither a 'Vette owner nor Chevy fan, but three friends have had 'em for years (yeah, they're Vette fanatics) and haven't had any unusual failures.  :DntKnw:

Absolutely not a tad of bias - a train load! I've been a full-on Ford fan since birth.   :yahoo:

While I might trust Consumer Reports for info on something like shampoo or canned beans, I give them little attention on cars. Their rating might be OK on commodities, they don't work for things chosen with one's heart & soul.

I always respected the writing in Consumer Reports (I haven't read it in 15 years or so because Internet), they were usually quite clear how they got to their ratings, so it was easy to decide if their ratings were relevant or not.  They left a lot of room for 'heart and soul' while giving you the information you needed.
