Description of the problem	The instrument cluster in the company car i am driving which is a 2002 mercedes benz model s500 just recently went out completely. I have taken the car in to be repaired and a new fuse was put in and it blew within an hour. I have called mercedes benz directly and they said that the recall 06v028000 does not apply to me. I also called the fletcher jones motorcar dealership and they said the same thing.
