Not.
I’d bet it has a lot more to do with the majority of Mercedes owners not being in a position where they feel the need to call a radio show seeking advise on where/how to fix their cars. And very little to do with the reliability of MB’s in relation to any other cars.
You don’t hear too many Ferrari or Porsche owners calling in either. Both of those require quite a bit of attention/maintenance as compared to Japanese or most any other autos.
And yes – I have heard “The Tappet Brothers” mention MBs numerous times. The caller is almost always a college (or just out) student with an older hand-me-down MB.
