The computer finally allowed me into the Mercedes owners complaints site. It sure does not sound like the newer Mercedes are doing so good. It also sounds like the dealers are not too good with service in some areas.
These older one's are great. (pre 85) for me anyways. Parts are'nt that bad either. I have a good parts guy at the Mercedes dealership in town, unless it is one of the expensive parts, then I just go to NAPA.
I feel bad for some of the people on the complaints site. It seems that they are'nt getting what they paid for.
I am grateful for forums such as this after reading that stuff. Also appreciate the past engineers that designed our older cars. There could probably be a complaint site for every car manufacturer. Seems to me like the manufacturers today design flaws into there stuff.... whereas the older stuff was more competitive in the reliability dept. Kinda backwards.
