“I purchased a 2009 mercedes benz c300 luxury sedan in october 2008 in atlanta, ga. I drove the car off the lot with 37 miles on the odometer. I house the car in my garage. I'd had the car in my possession for a little less than two weeks when I woke one chilly morning to discover a crack in the driver's side mirror. I immediately phoned the dealership and was told to bring the car in for evaluation. Service assessed the damage and advised me that they'd recently (the day before) become aware that the heating elements were cracking the mirrors in the c class models. …”
