I bought my S-class car at a Manhattan dealership with 4900 miles on it, I treated it like my baby I-??m the only driver and all services and maintenance had been done at the dealership, and I started getting bad readings on the fuel, check engine is ON, fuel gauge reads Full then goes down to Empty The mechanics at the Manhattan dealership said it was short on the fuel tank and I need to have the whole new tank replaced, my understanding is this model, the S Class has been having this issue on many models and there was a soft recall on that matter and it can be fixed at the dealership, we do have a case number with the Dealership. case number 03656172
