Newer M-B terribly unreliable?
Excerpt from Detroit Newspaper article about the results of the most recent Consumer Reports Survey on vehicle dependability.
Quote:
Hyundai's $16,000 Sonata sedan is among the "most reliable" sedans. Mercedes-Benz's $75,000 S-class and BMW's $70,000 7 Series are among the "least reliable."
BMW officials say they are confident their cars will do better in next year's survey.
Mercedes officials say their internal tracking shows improvement across all Mercedes models.
"The better measure of reliability is the fact that 72% of the over 2 million Mercedes-Benz vehicles that have been sold in the USA since the 1950s are still on the road today," says Geoff Day, Mercedes spokesman.
