Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Abc hose leaked hydraulic fluid in huge puddle as the vehicle was being backed out of the driveway. Not long after the wheels were sitting on top of the wheel well. Mercedes service diagnosed as hose that requires transmission to be removed to fix. Was told recall work was done in 2004 so I had to pay full repair price ($4,700).”
