| Description of the problem | I just bought this car in october, 2012. One morning i noticed that it was leaning on the right passenger side. I took it back to the dealership i bought it from. They stated that it was the air bags??/suspension? Their mechanic supposedly fixed it! On 1/4/2013, i noticed that it was leaning again on the right passenger side. I have contacted a mercedes dealership and they stated that these cars have problems with airmatic and suspension. Why are there no recalls for this? The cost to fix at mercedes dealership is over 1,500 dollars! |
