Yoda makes a good car but they have their issues as well, 3.0 headgaskets, 2.5 camry piston slap, valve bodys slamming reverse, we were pulliing 93 camrys off the truck with blown oil pump o-rings, head gasket and valvecover leaks, Lexus eats IC's, shortblocks in 3.0 and 3.4 trucks, egr passages stopping up, and thi list goes on.
I dont cae who builds it, something is gonna break.
I do think MB took a evap, hung it from the ceiling by a coat hanger and assembled the car around it. the cut the hanger off. However, once you get used to 'em, they really aint bad to do. When you look at product cost to product cost, then look at the percentage of repair cost versus product cost MB is right in line. Afterall a $2500 dollar repair on a 25K car is outragous but a $2500 repair on a 50k car is more in line.
