Problem Reports

Rear end goes down intermittantly when the car in parked. Usually goes back up when the car is started again. It's going to cost a bundle to replace those rear strust and shocks on an E500 Sport. There should have been a recall with this being so prevalent a problem.

rear end springs have sit down on the back tires the other day the back end was sitting half way down i already have had the front end replaced. one side went bad then about six months the other side went out, was there ever a recall on the front or the rear supension of the E500 2003

car unleveled front driver side down. took it to the dealer they said the strut needs replacement. the part cost 1100 alone no maintenance fee included.

air springs leak but it hasn't been a huge problem - car will sink down if not driven for several days

I had the right front air shock replaced after a complete failure. After taking it into an independent MB shop, he let me know this is a problem with a number of E500s due to cheaper parts being used. Unfortunately, it's just a matter of time before they all have to be replaced $1100 each. Does anyone know of a rebuild or better option than kit to replace with struts ($4000-6000)?
