Its what you CAN"T SEE that is the BIG problem with the 210s. Those 2 front SPRING PERCHES need to be REPLACED if the car has any history of being used in the SALT BELT AREAS. My car drove like a dream, fantastic ride, and while parked overnight, the passenger side spring perch FAILED, causing the spring to break in half, and the fender to drop on top of the front tire. If I had been going 70-80 on the highway, I would have totally lost control of the car, and may have been KILLED. How Mercedes got away with this FATAL flaw is beyond me. The week prior to this event, the car was up on the lift for a tire rotation, and BOTH SPRING perches look FINE, but under the factory rust application, the metal was rotten to the core!!!!
