Description of the problem	I have a benz e350 2006 with 60k miles. My check engine light went on and i was told it was the balance shaft gear problem. Mercedes-benz had a class action lawsuit complaint filed for this issue for some of their cars with this problem as well as faulty engines & idle gears. There are more than 100000 cars from 2005 to 2007 model years with this problem and they managed to get away without issuing a recall. What surprises me is even with the class action suit, they pay only 30% of the repair cost. Dealership estimate for this repair is $7500. They have to remove the entire engine/motor and open it up to replace the small part. Http://www. Classactionrebates. Com/settlements/mercedes_engine/ you are a member of this class action if you purchased or leased mercedes-benz vehicles in the united states that are model years 2005-2007 equipped with m272 (v6) or m273 (v8) engines bearing serial numbers up to 2729.. 30 468993 or 2739 .. 30 088611, respectively. You can verify your serial number by checking your past repair orders. Class members may also enter the vehicle identification number (vin) on the settlement website to see if their vehicle qualifies for benefits from this mercedes class action settl i now have to replace the balance shift gears so my car will pass emissions inspection. Mercedes benz is not worth buying. Mercedes benz needs to be responsible for faulty equipment. Mercedes benz does not have the reputation it used to have.
