| Body problems |
Vehicle was towed three different occasions due to the check engine light illuminating. The dealer has not been able to permanently correct the problem. They replaced the conductor plate, 2 rings on the connector, trans pan and valve body. The passenger side door never closed properly the first time. It had to be slammed to ensure it was closed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The consumer was told it was fixed, however it was not. The seat belts don't seem to provide much protection as they are loose and slip off the consumer's shoulder while driving. (nar).
There is too much rust on the vehicle! car has never been in any accidents & has been washed & waxed regularly. Supposedly this is a very common issue with these cars which is disappointing. This poses a safety issue as if the vehicle is involved in a collision, the structural integrity is highly diminished due to the corrosion. What is even more scary is that the corrosion starts from the inside out so you will not be able to see the damage until it is too late. Mb USA: please assist/help & back your products up!.
