2 Steering problem of the 2008 Mercedes Benz R350

Bought the vehicle and was great on the highway. But when driving in the city, it became difficult to turn corners. And takes awhile to park. Vehicle was low on power steering fluid, but after filling to the max line in the power steering reservoir, the vehicle has had the same problem turning.

3 Steering problem of the 2008 Mercedes Benz R350

Failure Date: 08/09/2016

My mercedes R350 sporadically becomes very difficult to steer. I noticed that this happens after a few minutes of city street driving. The steering gets so tight that it requires both hands and a lot of effort to just steer the wheel particularly when parking. Because of this constant battle with the steering wheel I started feeling pain on my shoulder. The steering wheel fluid level is fine and the car has never been in any accident. I called Mercedes Benz after finding out that there has been a recall on the 2008 R350s for the same problem but I was told that my car is not part of the recalled batch based on my VIN#. Maybe there is just not enough complaints yet for my ¿batch¿ that they refuse to fix the very same problem that they issued a recall for. My car is the same model, manufactured in the same year and is exhibiting the same symptoms as the defect identified in the recall. What can I do to have my car included in the recall?.

Mercedes r class speed sensitive steering has little play and its measurement of hardening and softening the steering is unpredictable. Sometime steering itself become very soft that vehicle is hard to control and sometime it becomes very hard. Total random behavior, effect driving and safety.
