Folks 93 300 4 matic broke in Fayetteville, NC...?

They are driving down to FL from NY and just bought a "new" 93 300 4 matic wagon;
Now they are stuck in Fayetteville, NC.

Coolant is leaking out and Pop can't see where it's coming from.

There is an MB dealer in town, but not poen until Tuesday. Is anyone perhaps in this area that can take a quick look at the car to see if it's a quick fix??

THANKS! AA

How bad is it leaking? A can of stop leak and a few gallons of coolant in the trunk may be enough to get them to their destination. If it's the radiator, pinching off a leaking tube with a pair of needle nose pliers might also work. If it's a heater core, rerouting the hose to bypass it might work.
