| Description of the problem | I purchased this vehicle in january 2020. At first, the fuel filler door would not stay closed once i opened it to pump gas. Every time i would close it, it would pop back open. I would have to close it about 10 times before it would stay closed. Then, i went to pump gas and the fuel filler door would not open although the vehicle was unlocked. People expect better quality from such an expensive brand. Mercedes benz needs to address this widespread issue with the fuel filler door. |
