NHTSA Complaint #11496946 — 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ B 250E

Mercedes dealer indicated a coolant leak resulted in an electrical failure and required that I pay $18,000 to replace the motor system. This is a known issue, however. When I mentioned that this is a manufacturing defect affecting numerous b250e I was referred to Mercedes Benz USA. Mercedes Benz USA offered a $1000 discount towards repairs rather than waiving the cost entirely. There are no details or tools available by mercedes or others to diagnose and resolve this issue. I would like this vehicle recalled. I want to be refunded the entire amount of the vehicle or at least the amortized value at the time of the incident.
