Angry ML430 Catastrophic Steering Fluid Loss

Apparently a known (to MB) line / bracket problem which results in the total loss of fluid when the line blows off at cold temperatures.

MB center told me 6 locally towed today in addition to mine which was just towed away.

Anyone heard of this and know why they did not fix when it was serviced LAST WEEK ?

Wow !
