Jack Failure
My MB Bilstein jack failed this weekend, it is actually bent about 20 degrees. Luckily I am unhurt, but the car dumped on the rotor, and fell off the jack stand.
Does anyone know MB's stance on a replacement jack?

Sorry!
I wish I could help, but I don't know jack!
Seriously, I hope your car is okay.

My guess is that they'd be happy to replace it as long as you pay for it. If they simply gave you a new one it would be like admitting that the original one was defective, and we all know that all MB products are virtually free of defects!!!

I'll post pics soon. It actually bent in toward the car -- the entire thing is bent. Was quite a fright I tell you.
