2012 Mercedes benz ML350 Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1310472
Internal NHTSA #	10897188
Manufacurer	Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
Brand	MERCEDES BENZ
Model	ML350
Model Year	2012
File date	05/08/16
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	My vehicle came with error message "front left srs malfunction service required". Dealer claims that the air bag might not deploy. Left it for service. El cable, cable connectors and locking mechanism were replaced. Looks like the electrical cables were damaged/defective in the mechanism. Being a car with no more than 4 years and under 43000 miles, it is clear that the parts replaced were due to manufacturing defects. Further this problem has nothing to do with regular vehicle maintenance. I do not know the impact which it would cause if not serviced. Paid $444 for the service and i am really doubtful about the reliability in saving life using airbags on mercedes. Attached bills for the service. Appreciate if you could look into the matter and followup. Thank you
