Nice car to drive comfortable on highway, Side street not so good. And to many problem. Md not made a car like before , they worry about money so much. not good product no more.

Do you drive a 2006 MERCEDES M-CLASS?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
