A BIG Dumb mistake

I bought this car as an approved used from main dealer 3 years old under 30000 miles with One owner one year warranty.

Within the warranty year I drove 5000 Miles when the warranty expired at 35000 miles the left bank sensor stopped working £420 Labour not included straight after right bank sensor stopped working under a £1000 for 2 sensors.

The steering wheel is so lifeless so dead there’s no feeling of the road there’s no joy in driving. Avoid this model there much better alternatives out there.

At 37000 miles the front driver side LED light Strip stopped working the £1300 for the headlight. plus removing bumper to replace a headlight plus reprogramming in total £1600 just to replace a light strip.

At 41000 miles the rear LED indicator driver side started flickering can’t just simply replace indicator have to replace whole headlight plus have to remove bumper.

This car has full Mercedes main dealer history.
