How many miles will a 2007 ML350 last?
The 71 mileages owners gave run from 5 to 167,000 miles. A quarter are at or under 35,000 miles, half at or under 60,000, three quarters at or under 93,000 and nine in ten at or under 110,000; 13 (18%) came after 100,000 miles, 2 (3%) after 150,000 and none after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2007 ML350 wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: 58 of the 71 came at or under 100,000 miles. The 13 past that mark show the 2007 ML350 still being driven at those mileages, not how many reach them: NHTSA's file counts complaints, not the vehicles on the road.

Is the 2007 ML350 a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2007 is a good or a bad ML350: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2007 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 83 complaints, the 2007 ranks 5th of the 13 Mercedes-Benz ML350 model years from 2003 to 2015 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2006 (172). The fewest: the 2005 (23).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2003 ML350 | 25 | 19 | 51,400 |
| 2004 ML350 | 35 | 28 | 67,000 |

2007 Mercedes-Benz ML350 recalls
NHTSA's recall files of November 11, 2026 list 2 recall campaigns that name the 2007 Mercedes-Benz ML350. A campaign covers a production range, not every vehicle of the model year: check the VIN with NHTSA's free recall lookup.
What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2007 ML350 lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2007 ML350.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 12 of the 83 complaints on the 2007 Mercedes-Benz ML350 give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: ML350. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: ML350.
