2007 Mercedes-Benz R350 Suspension Problems

“When I woke up my car was leaning to one side (the right side)...couple of times the red light (stop car too low comes on) and I have to stop in a safe area of course, but this is scary when you have your young kids with you... The malfunction light comes on when driving over 45 miles away from home.”

“Woke up one morning and my car warning light came on advising me that I had a malfunction. I realized that my car did not lift up as it should have and after waiting for about 15 minutes, the warning light remained on however; it would raise up eventually. Some days were better then others and some days I had to park it for the entire day in fear of driving it while the malfunction light was on.”

“In october 2012, my 2007 R350 dash indicated air suspension malfunction and right rear end lowered close to top of tire. Brought to mercedes dealer in new rochelle, ny for diagnosis and problem was determined to be a collapsed suspension airbag component requiring replacement. Brought vehicle to my trusted and experienced mechanic who replaced right airbag and failed air compressor with new original mercedes parts. In april 2013 vehicle dash indicated air suspension malfunction once again - this time left rear end lowered. …”

I have contacted a mercedes dealership and they stated that these cars have problems with airmatic and suspension.why are there no recalls for this? The cost to fix at mercedes dealership is over 1,500 dollars!”

“Just woke up one morning, I went to start my car and noticed that it was leaning to the passenger side. I went to a private mechanic and he stated that the lower sensor needed to be repaired, so we did that, it cost around $350 for labor and part. I drove the car a couple of days and same problem. So the following day I went to mercedes dealer and they told me that the suspension arms needed to be replaced, so we fixed that which cost about $600. They also, mentioned that there may be an air bag leak, but the work for that was around $910. I declined. …”
