“The contact owns a 2003 mercedes C320. The contact was unable to turn the radio off. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be repaired. In order to avoid draining the battery, she had to remove the fuse. Also, in warm temperatures, the power locks failed intermittently. Upon locking the doors, they would unlock without intent. She had to engage the power locks several times before they would actually stay locked. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where who stated that the radio would be repaired at her expense. No repairs made to the vehicle. …”
