Ahhhh, hit the nail rite on the head! My boss has a POS 2010 S63 Benz which which has spent more time at the dealer then in his garage! Body control modules, rattling heat shields, leaking turbo's, intake manifold gaskets, etc, etc! 165K and its total crap!
A lot of the other stuff in your list seems like regular maintenance stuff other than dash crack of course.
