 Description of the problemI just was advised by my mercedes only independent garage that the on-going cel on my 2006 e350 (48000 miles) is for the camshaft wear mentioned in this lawsuit. The mechanic advises repair cost is $6200. He has the bulletin and has seen this issue in multiple cars. I will be complaining to the nhtsa and hoping nhtsa can recover my damages for this obvious and known defect. Check engine lights star diagnosis indicated : code 1200 and 1208 ( p0016 and p0017) for mb e350 2006 48000 mil mercedes has known about this problem since 2007 and has failed to notify any owners of the problem. Probably because the repair is so expensive ranging from $4,000-$8,000 and with most, the problem doesn't show up until after the warranty has expired. So it's a win-win situation for mercedes. I don't feel all warm and fuzzy inside because mercedes offered to put a little "goodwill cash" towards a repair that cost me thousands that they should have covered in full. And their 2 "rules" for qualifying for "goodwill assistance" for the repair has nothing to do with the repair. It's not preventable. If your vehicles falls between the serial numbers, your balance shaft will fail. On facebook specifically for the balance shaft you can get information and a number of vehicles affected. Http://www.
