Same thing happened to mine.
My neighbor, who is a techinician at a Mercedes dealer, tells me while not common, he does see this from time to time.
You can have yours rebuilt by a rack and pinion shop, purchase a factory rebuilt unit from the dealer, or purchase a brand new unit from the dealer.
I believe the dealer rebuilt units run about $1,800, and come with a one year warranty, which is the same as a brand new unit.
