Why is everyone so dramatic with the " I would have been killed!" statements?
I have seen a W210 car that had a front wheel come off at 80mph and go into oncoming traffic. The owner walked away after a 125+mph combined head-on. Your car is pretty damn safe even if the perch fails.

Here in Washington St., I have yet to see a single example of this failure.
We don't use road salt here, which seems to be the root cause.

Good luck with all of the lawsuits.

Think the dealer is expensive? Do you know how much it costs to train a dealer tech? Or buy the required MB special tools to have on hand?
