I have the heated / cooled front cupholder option in my 2012 ML.
After using it mainly in cold mode for a week, whilst on holiday in France, the plastic ssurround at the top has developed a crack.
I've contacted MB warranty but their response is that it can't happen and must have been subjected to an external force of some kind. I know this isn't the case and will progress further.
It would help my case if there is any evidence of similar occurances.
I know from the dealer that this option is rare and many have never even seen one. It was on the car when I bought it.
If I don't get it fixed then I expect a hefty bill when I hand it back!
Would be grateful for any input from those experienced with warranty claims.
