2006 MERCEDES BENZ R350 Suspension Problems

YESTERDAY, WHILE PARKED, I NOTICED THE CAR IS LEANING TOWARDS LEFT SIDE. MECHANIC CHECKED AND FOUND THE AIR SPRING BAG WAS LEAKING. ALSO, THE STRUT ON RIGHT GOT SHOT. MANY OWNERS HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT. I'M SCARED TO TRAVEL WITH MY KIDS AND GRAND KIDS IN THE CAR. THESE CARS MUST BE RECALLED FOR SUSPENSION PROBLEMS.

EVERYDAY I GET A RED SIGNAL ALERTING ME TO STOP DRIVING, CAR TOO LOW. IT USUALLY OCCURS WHEN INITIALLY TURNING ON THE CAR OR AT THE BEGINNING OF THE DRIVE. THE REAR OF THE CAR IS VISIBLY LOW AND WHEN DRIVING IT IS UNEVEN AND BUMPY. I HAVE SEEN OTHER R350 OWNERS WITH SAME COMPLAINT AND REPEAT COSTS TO FIX ~1200.00 EACH SIDE. NO SUSPENSION RECALLS ON AN APPARENT DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING?

THE 2006 MERCEDES BENZ R350 WITH THE AIRMATIC SUSPENSION HAS MULTIPLE PROBLEMS THAT SEEM TO NEVER END. MY CAR HAS ONLY 70K MILES ON IT. THE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN FIXED TWICE BY AN AUTHORIZED MERCEDES BENZ SHOP. WHILE LOOKING UP SOME INFORMATION ON VARIOUS WEBSITES AND FORUMS I NOTICED I AM NOT THE ONLY OWNER WITH THIS PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY A LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH SCREEN STATING VEHICLE TOO LOW TO DRIVETO SHOP. WHEN THE SUSPENSION GOES OUT THE VEHICLE FRAME IS APPROXIMATELY 2 INCHES FROM THE GROUND. THE STIFFENED RIDE MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE. MERCEDES BENZ STATED YOU CAN'T GET A TRADITIONAL COIL SPRING CONVERSION IN THE UNITED STATES. THE SUSPENSION PROBLEMS WITH THE R350 ARE ALSO VERY COSTLY ($3600) EVERY TIME THIS HAS TO BE FIXED. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN STORAGE DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO AFFORD A THIRD TIME TO THE SHOP. PLEASE CONSIDER AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE SUSPENSION OF THE MERCEDES BENZ R350 AIRMATIC THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

WE HAVE HAD A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM REGARDING REAR SUSPENSION, RIGHT SIDE STARTED FIRST, THE REAR WOULD DROP DOWN BUT YET THE LEFT SIDE WOULD BE UP. THIS CREATED A HORRIFIC UNSTEADY DRIVE. WE HAD A SUSPENSION AIR BAG REPLACED. NOW THE LEFT SIDE IS DOING IT. CAR CAN NOT BE DRIVEN. FROM ALL THAT I HAVE READ AND FROM DEALERS, THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MERCEDES. WHY HAS MERCEDES NOT ISSUED A RECALL REGARDING THIS PROBLEM? THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND DEFINITELY NOT AT A VEHICLE THAT HAS LOW MILES. NOW THIS ISSUE IS ALSO CAUSING UNEVEN WEAR ON TIRES, 2YEARS LATER WE ARE STILL DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR

I AGREE THAT SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THE REAR SUSPENSION DEFECT ON THE 2006 R-CLASS MERCEDES. I ALSO OWN A 2006 MERCEDES BENZ R350. THIS VEHICLE KEPT LEANING TO THE RIGHT SIDE. THE AUTOMATIC SUSPENSION ON THE VEHICLE WAS UNEVEN. THE RED LIGHT ASKED ME TO STOP?CAR TOO LOW. I STOPPED AND IT PUMPED UP AGAIN. DROVE A COUPLE OF MILES AND IT DID SAME THING. TOOK TO MB DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS THE SUSPENSION THIS PASSENGER??S SIDE ISSUE OF THE VEHICLE BEING NOTABLY HIGHER THAN THE DRIVER??S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. LEANING TO ONE SIDE HAS OCCURRED TWICE. THE REAR AIR SPRING SUSPENSION HAS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT TWO TIMES IN THE LAST FIVE MONTHS (7/1/2013 & 11/28/2013): - BOTH SIDES IN THE REAR OF VEHICLE HAVE BEEN REPLACED. - EACH REAR SUSPENSION REPAIR HAS COST ME $1200.00 EACH TIME (TOTALING $2400 FOR REAR AIR SUSPENSION REPLACEMENT). - BOTH REPAIRS OCCURRED BY AN AUTHORIZED MERCEDES DEALER (SMYTH EUROPEAN MERCEDES DEALER IN SANTA CLARA CA). THE MERCEDES BENZ MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS BUT HAVE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY TO CREATE A RECALL. *TR

I TOOK THE CAR TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE REAR AIR SPRING SUSPENSION. MY WARRANT PAID TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AND THE PART WAS REPLACED. TWO MONTHS LATER THE VEHICLE WAS LEANING AGAIN. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A PART DEFECT AND THEY REPLACED IT AT NO CHARGE TO MY WARRANTY COMPANY. JUST THIS SATURDAY, AUGUST 3, 2013 I CAME OUT FROM THE MOVIES TO FIND MY CAR LEANING FOR THE THIRD TIME. I CONTACTED THE WARRANTY COMPANY AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A 1 YEAR WARRANTED SINCE IT WAS LAST FIXED ON SEPTEMBER 25,2012 SO I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE SHOP THAT FIXED IT AND WAS TOLD THAT NOW ITS THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF WHICH WAS FIXED BUT THE CAR IS LEANING THE SAME POSITION AS THE LAST 2 TIMES AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET IT REPAIRED BECAUSE MY WARRANTY HAS ENDED. I HAVE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE INTAKE MANIFOLD SOMETHING IN THE ENGINE AND THE TRUNK/LIFTGATE LATCH NOT CLOSING AND SENSOR NOT WORKING WHERE THE TRUNK WOULD SLAM ON YOUR HEAD WITHOUT STOPPING FROM THE MOTION. THE MOTION SENSORS HAVE ALSO BEEN A PROBLEM WHERE THEY WOULD CONSTANTLY SOUND OFF WHEN NOTHING IS IN THE WAY. THE PASSENGER SEAT ASSEMBLY HAS ALSO BEEN REPAIRED SINCE I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE. SOMETHING IS ALSO GOING ON UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE WHICH HAS CAUSED MY FRONT TIRES TO SUDDENLY BALD SEVERELY WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

2006 MERCEDES BENZ R350-THIS VEHICLE KEEPS LEANING ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL PARTS INCLUDING SENSORS AND VALVES BUT AFTER A FEW WEEKS, IT GOES BACK TO THE SAME PROBLEM. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP THAT SPECIALIZES ONLY ON MERCEDES BENZ AND HE'S HAVING A HARD TIME FIGURE OUT WHAT'S THE PROBLEM. I CAN'T TELL HOW MUCH MONEY I SPENT SO FAR IN THIS VEHICLE AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THERE'S NO RECALLS SO FAR. NO TO MENTION THE PROBLEMS WITH THE BALANCE SHAFT AND INTAKE MANIFOLD ISSUE AS WELL AS A AIR SUSPENSION PROBLEM. THESE PROBLEMS ARE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT ESPECIALLY ON THE R350 CLASS VEHICLES. MB IS AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS BUT THEY ARE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY TO CREATE A RECALL. BELIEVE ME, I'VE SEEN SO MANY R350 VEHICLES OUT THERE, AND MOST OF THEM SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. DO WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR A RECALL IN THIS VEHICLE UNTIL A FATALITY OCCURS? *TR

MY WIFE CAME OUT TO START THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE CAR WAS LEANING SEVERELY TO ONE SIDE. THE DRIVER FRONT AND REAR WAS TILTED, SOMETHING I NEVER WITNESSED BEFORE ON ANY VEHICLE I ONCE OWNED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A SENSOR THAT CONTROLLED THE BALANCE OF THE VEHICLE. THE SENSOR WAS CHANGED AND A FEW DAYS LATER IT STARTED LEANING AGAIN. I NOTICED WHEN THE VEHICLE SITS IT WILL BEGIN TO LEAN, BUT ONCE IT IS DRIVEN FOR 10 MILES IT BEGINS TO BALANCE ITSELF. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CONTACT YOU ALL ABOUT THIS SITUATION, HOWEVER TO NO , SO NOW I WILL BEGIN TAKING FURTHER PROCEDURES TO CORRECT THIS SITUATION, AND NOT HAVE TO CONTINUE PAYING FOR A DEFAULT THAT`S INCONCEIVABLE. *TR

PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRMATIC SUSPENSION. THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AND CAUSES YOUR VEHICLE TO LEAN TO ONE SIDE AT THIS POINT YOUR TURN RADIUS IS HINDERED SEVERELY.YOU ALSO NOW ARE ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED,SO HOPEFULLY YOU ARE NOT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENS.I KNOW 3 DIFFERENT PERSONS BESIDES MYSELF WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE, AND THANKFULLY THIS MAJOR MALFUNCTION HAS NOT CAUSED ANY TRAFFIC/INJURY INCIDENTS.THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR FLAW IN WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS REPERCUSSIONS. *JS
