I bought my well-maintained E-Class from a freelance dealer almost half a year ago (it was a company car that was continuously serviced and repaired by Mercedes).
Today I get into the car after work and the display says: The car is being raised, please wait. Nothing changed, so I went to Mercedes.
Costed €310 for patching a tube in a place where it was probably patched up. Then they said: Unfortunately the hose is now very short and could possibly break again because it is slightly stretched when it is lowered. If that should happen, you would have to disassemble everything and insert a completely new hose. That would be very complex and expensive.
I then asked if you couldn't just patch in a piece with 2 connectors?
Answer: Oh yes, you can ...
So I think that's really blatant now. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that I was helped spontaneously so quickly, but that's really not correct, is it? Instead of putting that under tension again, they could have used an extension straight away. The next time I have to pay €310 for that?
