My right front air strut went out while my wife was driving and had our son in the car. She was 120 miles away from home and stranded. She went to Mercedes Benz of beverly hills and they want $160 to diagnose and then would put her in a loaner. The estimate was around $1700 to fix 1 air strut. I have done my research and this is definitely a safety issue as the speed she was traveling at. Im not sure why mb has not issued a safety recall on these faulty parts. Definitely would be nice if they would cover this.

Mercedes Benz airmatic ride height system is faulty. I have research several forums and noticed a continuous of air strut failure on vehicles under 50,000 miles. The parts to repair this fault can only be purchased at a Mercedes Benz dealer and are extremely expensive. One air strut costs around $1500 and usually a compressor must also be replace for around $500.
