Consumer Description

MERCEDES BENZ KNOWS ABOUT THE SBC UNIT WEARING OUT THE BRAKES PREMATURELY YET HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. THERE HAS BEEN A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE BRAKES ALSO, BUT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PREMATURE WEAR. THIS HAS TO DO WITH FIXING A BUG IN THE SOFTWARE FOR THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO COME ON AND FOR YOU TO BRING IN FOR SERVICE. PROBLEM IS THEY ARE CHARGING CONSUMERS FOR THIS BUG FIX. I HAD TO PAY $120. MY CURRENT MILEAGE IS 127,000. BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED GOING ON 5 TIMES ALREADY. *KB
