I took my MB in for service to have alternator replaced. After it was finished service did a multipoint inspection on vehicle and keep in mind I have had my car in for service before and if there had been a multi inspection wouldn't this have been seen before now" This report includes Rear sub Frame rusted & broke, rear brake lines rusted, fault code for intake manifold flap malfuntion, actuator arms broke, engine misfire on cylinders 3-5. Recommended Services is to replace transmission mounts, left engine mount, right engine mount, rear sub frame, rear brake llines, intake manifold. diagnose misfires. All of this and I was never notified of any issues before now and its only been a year since my car was in before. I was also told I didn't need an oil change and my brakes were only making noise because of wear!? And due to the issue I was also told to be very careful when I do drive! Total cost for this is $11,996.85 So I feel that MB is liable for this as there has not been any recommendation s before now. I had $2,081. worth of work done February 5th 2019 and the underbody of vehicle was inspected so why was this not caught then"

After only 7 years of owning the 2010 mb glk 350, both the engine mounts and transmission mounts needed to be replaced at an estimated cost of $3000 at the dealership. The car has less than 50,000 miles on it, mostly city driving. This can present a safety hazard if you are driving your vehicle in high speeds; the engine may shift and bounce about so violently that various parts will fly off. Condition mostly seen in high mileage cars.
