Sorry you took the negative commentary the way you did. The comments directed to the MB stealerships apply to just about every make and model out there. In my experience Ford is the worst of them all though.
The problem isn't the dealer directly, it's that so few people today actually KNOW how to work on a vehicle or even how to diagnose or troubleshoot the problem. You bring the car in, they plug in a computer, if it doesn't spit out the answer, they're lost! And that's assuming they didn't lie to you in the first place and say that your problem is "normal".
For every 1 good, competent technician out there, I'd say there's easily 15-20 bad ones. And that's not just in auto-service...
