In case anyone left their key inside with a child... I saw a video on my feed where a cop demonstrating how to push down a window with two toilet suction pumps. Would this cause any damage to the motor?

No overheating ever, but it can also be caused by failing headgaskets etc...
The cap should be designed to withstand the heat the engine makes under normal conditions.
I did have this thought, remember how I added those covers that mysteriously Mercedes stopped putting on the car in 2019? I wonder if maybe this is why they removed the covers? This reservoir is underneath one of those covers
How mine came from the factory:
We assume that this was a cost savings measure, but maybe it wasn't...
if true, then that is a serious engineering flaw.
Did you top off the coolant? Has the warning cleared?

personally, I like engine covers. It’s a nice finish
Haven’t topped it off yet. I didn’t get the warning today, and I only get it on a cold start in the morning so it must just be right on the edge of the low level.
Just add a little coolant. Once the warning is off. Drive with it with the current cap and leave the plastic cladding off, then you know. Also, you could see if there are any TSBs?
Spoiler
TSB stands for Technical Service Bulletin in case you didn’t know
