I have found other instances on the web where MB Canada has covered half of the fix, so I will let you know how that goes. I do have the service receipt from 1.5 years ago where I took the car in and paid an hours worth of labour just to have the suspension checked over. They said I was OK at the time.
In Canada, it was an official recall.

It is in the USA where MBUSA only pays 50% to "bad" customers. Mine were replaced before failure and MBUSA paid 50%. I do not have the car service at MB dealers so I am a"bad" customer, according to the service advisor at the dealer.
