PROBLEM ACCUSED SUDDENLY WITH FRONT AXEL . CALL AS MANY DEAL - USED CAR REPAIR CENTERS THEY ARE SURPRISED WITH THE RESULT NEVER HEARD A MERCEDES TO HAVE THIS KIND OF ISSUE SPECIALLY 2007 AUTO GL350 . THEY WERE MADE VERY SOLID NOT SOPPIEST TO GCREATE ANY ISSUE . EVEN SO I HAVE EXTENDED USED CAR REPAIR WARRANTY FROM THE USED CAR DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE WARRANTY FROM . ALL THE DEALER DON'T WAY TO DEAL WITH THE WARRANTY REPAIR . THEY WANT THE MONEY FIRST THEN I SHOULD REQUEST THE COST FROM THE WARRANTY COMPANY BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE . SEEMS LIKE NO REGULATION BODY TO REGULATE THE CAR WARRANTY COMPANIES . VERY DISAPPOINTING HOW THEY WORK . COST WOULD BE ABOUT 3K TO 4-5 K HOPE TO HEAR FROM ANYONE CAN HELP ! (XXXX) PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
SRS LIGHT CAME ON .DEALER SAID IT IS DUE TO PROBLEM WITH AIRBAG CONTROL AND WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM.I WAS THEN TOLD IT WOULD COST ME $975.00 PLUS TAX TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 56000 MILES .I WOULD THINK THE AUTO MAKER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS TYPE OF SAFETY PROBLEM. THE LIGHT IS CALLED AN SRS LIGHT. *TR
MY VEHICLE HAS HAD THE AIR SUSPENSION FAIL 3 TIMES AND BEEN REPLACED ALONG WITH THE PUMP ACCORDING TO A SAFETY BULLETIN. IT HAS JUST FAILED AGAIN AND IS GOING INTO THE SHOP AGAIN NOW WITH NO WARRANTY. THE AIR SHOCKS WERE JUST REPLACED IN NOV 2010 AND 10,000 MILES LATER THEY AGAIN ARE LEAKING AND FAILING. THIS APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD AND THEY ALSO HAVE ISSUED SERVICE BULLETINS AROUND THE FAILURE OF THIS SUSPENSION. - PLEASE NOTE YOUR DROP DOWN FOR VEHICLE TYPE DOES NOT ALLOW THE CORRECT CHOICE VEHICLE OF GL450. *TR

5 of 5 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
