| Description of the problem | I went to a store and when a return back for my car, my mercedes benz c300 2088 didn't start, i though it was the key but when i use my other key didn't work ether. I towed my car and took it to the mercedes benz dealer. Now the told me that the problem is the steering column loo and they want me to cargo me over $1400. I don't think is fare because it is a manufacture problem, a lot o people is complaining about the same think, even the employes told me that they have one car a week for the same problem. That has to be a recall. I'm not paying for a manufacture problem. Lets do something about it! |
