| Description of the problem | I contacted mercedes benz concerning the recall and they are unable to resolve the issue due to the parts not being in. I understand this is a national recall and it will take time to get the parts in. However, i do not feel comfortable driving my vehicle when this recall has been linked to deaths. Mercedes refuses to do anything in the meantime, because they have not had any reports of injury. Bottom line is i feel at risk driving my vehicle while the airbags are defective! |
