2011 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450 Complaints

THE AIR BAG HAS A HOLE/ DAMAGED AND MERCEDES BENZ IS NOT FIXING IT... DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND CAN CAUSE DEATH IF NOT FIXED IMMEDIATELY !

MY FRONT AIR STRUTS, REAR AIR SPRINGS AND SHOCKS, SUSPENSION AIR COMPRESSOR, AND VALVE BLOCK WENT OUT AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS. I'VE GOTTEN ALL THOSE COMPONENTS REPLACED AND I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SUSPENSION. MY CAR ROCKS FROM SIDE TO SIDE, LEANS ON THE LEFT SIDE WHILE DRIVING AND I CAN FEEL EVERY BUMP AND ROUGH SPOT IN THE ROAD.

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 2 YEARS AND REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V081000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE OVER A YEAR AGO. THE DEALER (AMERICAN SERVICE CENTER ASSOCIATES, 585 N GLEBE RD, ARLINGTON, VA 22203 (703) 525-2100) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS, ALERTING HIM THAT THEY FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL, PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO REPLACE IN MY 2011 MERCEDES BENZ GL450

TAKATA RECALL-HOW CAN YOU HAVE THIS LETHAL OF A SITUATION AND NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPLACE. I WANT IT IN WRITING THAT I TRIED TO RECTIFY THIS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.

"TAKATA RECALL".....DEALER TELLS ME THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART TO COMPLETE THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT. IT'S BEEN MONTHS

TAKATA RECALL. BEEN CALLING FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS AND EACH TIME I BRING IT IN FOR SERVICE I'M ASKING FOR AIRBAG REPLACEMENT. EVERY TIME "WE DON'T HAVE THE PARTS" I CALL 800-367-6372 MERCEDES CORPORATE TO DISCUSS AND THEIR ANSWERING SERVICE FOR TAKATA RECALL STATES SAME "WE DON'T HAVE PARTS" AND "MERCEDES BENZ FEELS ITS SAFE TO DRIVE" HOW IS IT SAFE TO DRIVE IF IT WILL EXPLODE ON FRONTAL CRASH IMPACT WITH SHRAPNEL?? WHY ISN'T ANYTHING BEING DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM? WHY ARE LAWYERS SUING FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS YET THE CONSUMER HAS GOTTEN NOTHING. I ALSO OWN A 2015 MERCEDES C 300 WHICH HASN'T BEEN FIXED WITH RECALLS AND A 2014 MERCEDES E 350. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I ALSO OWNED A 2010 LEXUS GX460 WHICH WAS INVOLVED IN CRASH, THANKFULLY AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY BUT I GOT NO COMPENSATION FROM ANY TOYOTA LAWSUITS. THE LAWYERS ARE GETTING ALL THE MONEY AND CONSUMERS NOTHING! NOT EVEN GETTING VEHICLES FIXED. WHY CAN'T THE GOVERNMENT STEP IN?

TAKATA RECALL--I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE REPLACEMENT FOR MY VEHICLE MAKE IS NOT EVEN AVAILABLE. I HAVE HAD THE NOTICE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS NOW. LEXUS DEALERS ARE OFFERING THEIR CUSTOMERS REPLACEMENT VEHICLES UNTIL THEIR PARTS COME IN, WHY WILL MERCEDES NOT OFFER THE SAME OPTION. IF THESE AIRBAGS ARE SUCH A DANGER IN THE EVENT OF A CAR CRASH, IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN WHILE WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE, THIS WILL CREATE AN EVEN BIGGER PROBLEM THAN WAS STARTED WITH.

MANUFACTURER (MERCEDES BENZ) HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER, STATING THE COMPANY THAT MADE THE AIRBAGS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. MY WIFE AND CHILDREN, INCLUDING AN INFANT, USE THIS VEHICLE ON REGULAR BASIS AND THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS ARE KNOWN TO CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURIES AND/OR DEATH AND THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND MUST BE ADDRESSED.
