1 Structure problem of the 2000 Mercedes Benz SLK230

Failure Date: 02/10/2005

The 2000 Slk230 I purchased new in 2000 has 5,000 miles on it. Mint-garage stored condition. I have requested numerous times,assistance with both side door problems which may lead to unwarranted air bag release in the near future. The defect appears to have been corrected in 2001 by Mercedes Benz as the newer models have a "one piece interior door panel, vs the "two piece" interior door panels in the 2000 models. I have friends with the same year and model having the same issue. Both driver and passenger side interior door panels have broken loose from the door due to the defective design of two piece with all pressure to close the doors, pulling the two piece panel design away from the actual doors. Mercedes benz-corporate and their local dealers refuse to assist with the issue. I am confident that in the near future, air bag deployment is inevitable from both sides due to the defect in design. Hopefully with no injury!.
