| Description of the problem | The vehicle was sended to inspection due to a "brake warning" started showing at the gauges control panel. Mercedes benz dealer service manager indicates that they not have a correct tool to recode to actualize the brake system and /or fix the problem at that time. Three visits and several phone calls been made to the dealer. The service advisor is always with other customer. I'm stop to drive my vehicle, because i never knew how deep is the problem. Doing a visual inspection i observed that the rear brake pads are not applying good enough, the surfaces of the rotors are different. The mercedes benz dealer representative still not notify me. This is a safety issue. This vehicle is not making any noise or have any vibration during braking. But i notice that is braking more at front than the rear. *brake fluid is been changed by the dealer. Service advisor stated that this car have an "extended recall" for brake mal-function/on different areas, but nothing is been done to fix the codes: hydraulic faults/c25d0/c2514/c249f/c22b5 & c223c. This may be the abs control box fault. After been waiting from 07:30 - 13:00 (5. 5 hrs) on my last visit. I received my car back just with few words front the advisor; " we need to order a part to re-coded your system, we contact you later (21 aug 2015). Note: recall # 05v133000 did you can assist me with this problem/ situation? Thanks in advance. V/ respectfully, mr. W. Ortiz |
