SL500

  • 25,319 miles
Purchased 1998 Mercedes Benz sl 600 from mbz san francisco dealership on 4/22/09. Immediately reported excessive and dangerous bouncing of front end. Reported defect dealer took no action. Took car to mbz of oakland where they diagnosed bad front suspension pressure cells which clearly existed at time of sale. Oakland mbz comped diagnostic. Have made several attempts to have sf mbz correct problem, but they want me to pay for the work and have ignored my letters.
