 Description of the problemRecall on my car is still waiting to be fixed. I bought this car brand new in april 2013. Mileage to date is only 22, 271 miles. I am now back in canada but could not bring my car to canada because there is an outstanding recall. In may 2018, the recall on steering was fixed. Because i do not live in california anymore, it is in a garage wasting away. I only usse the car in my yearly visits to check on it. Last 2018, i used the car for less than 1,000 miles. In 2019, i have not used the car. Last feb 2020, i requested a friend to have my car checked at an mb dealership (fletcher jones in fremont, ca). They replaced the whole steering mechanism because it was leaking oil profusely. I complained that since the recall on the steering was only fixed in may 2018 and used the car less than 1,000 miles, how can the steering mechanism damaged as such. Also, although the car is almost 7 years old, the total mileage on the car is only 22. 291 miles. Is it possible that there is a manufacturer's defect in this part? On account of the fron passenger airbag recall not yet being fixed, i left my car in california. It was scheduled to be fixed in 2019 but was moved to april 2020. I have wasted so much money in this car but am not enjoying or benefiting from it. I pray that the airbag recall in this car be finally fixed this coming april as i have decided to drive it from fremont, ca to toronto, canada this coming first week of may with a co-driver. I am feed up spending so much money on a car i am not using and do not benefit from. Please help me get the airbag fixed before i drive it to toronto canada from stockton, ca , a distance of more than 2,600 miles, exposing myself and my co driver to high risk of not having a proper working airbag.
