Description of the problem	Rear sub-frame corrosion issue. Starting hearing clunking noises coming from rear right of the vehicle. Also noticed the car seemed to pull or twist to the right when braking. I inspected the brakes, all 4 disc brakes and parking brakes looked fine, noticed sub-frame rust through. This level of corrosion on a key structural component is dangerous. It seemed obvious to me this was a manufacturing issue. The car is in excellent condition no other corrosion issues, and has been well maintained and keep in a heated garage since we purchased it 6 yrs ago. We took it to the mercedes dealership, had them confirm the issue, and registered a request to mercedes corporate to help fix this issue. They denied that request. The local service dept.
