“I have a 2000 mercedes c280 sport, which has constant fuel gauge problems. It's as if the gauge has a mind of it's own. This problem was repaired once according to my dealer, but has somehow manifested itself again. I feel this is a design flaw and would like to know what mercedes is doing to fix it.”
