“I was informed of this recall fire risk. And I contacted Mercedes dealership where I got the car. And they informed me that the battery is not available at this time. And to park the vehicle outside. I can’t do this because my charging port is located inside my garage. This is not a safe and the dealership won’t do anything about it.”
