File date	19/11/15

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Oil was leaking from the engine which was the result of a faulty part that mercedes has subsequently replaced with a new re-engineered part. The dealer indicated that the issue is systemic with all blue-tec m and g class vehicles which mercedes will not cover the charge for. The repair requires that the engine be removed from the car because that it is the only way the part ($30) can be replaced. The resulting repair cost over $1900 in labor. We noticed the leak because there was oil drips in our garage. The service technician at the dealership noted that we had lost about a third of our oil and that the oil was covering the engine and it was also noted that the oil could have caused a fire if the part was not immediately replaced.
