This Problem Across All Years
THE AUTO DIMMING REAR VIEW MIRROR TURNED BLACK AND I CANNOT SEE OUT OF IT DEALER WANTS LIKE $800 TO REPLACE IT. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE ON THE FORUMS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, ALSO THE AUTO DIMMING DRIVERS SIDE MIRROR HAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND CAN'T SEE OUT OF THAT EITHER, AGAIN MANY PEOPLE ON THE FORUMS COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS TOO. AT ONE TIME THE MANUFACTURER OF THE MIRROR WAS SENDING FREE REPLACEMENTS SINCE THERE WERE SOME QUALITY CONTROL PROBLEMS, BUT NO MORE. *TR

DT: 2002 MERCEDES SLK 230- WHEN STOPPING THE CAR, AND THEN TAKE OFF AGAIN THE CAR LOSES POWER. INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON AT THIS TIME. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE OR FOUR TIMES IN PAST YEAR AND A HALF. THE LAST TIME IT WAS IN THE SHOP FIVE DAYS AND DRIVEN 163 MILES AND THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, WHEN I PICKING UP THE VEHICLE DROVE IT ABOUT 10 MPH, STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN THE CAR LOST POWER. THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN. *AK *NM
