SL500

  • Automatic transmission
  • 94,000 miles

I was driving down the road and noticed the abs light on and car to low to drive message. By this time the fenders had already scrub the tires which ruined the tires. As of now the car just sits in driveway until I can figure out a solution.

Mercedes Benz knowingly sells lemons. This is an established FACT. Ask ANYONE that have EVER owned a SL from 2003 on, and they ALL have the same ABC failure.

I will NEVER buy anything remotely associated with this dishonest criminal empire.
