Foot brake has no click sound. Found a bit of broken plastic in the footwell

I believe the plastic bit is only there for the clicking sound and a new one can be bought quite cheaply, or if it's not broken maybe the retaining clip/spring has come off or broken.
 
As said, this part is only there to give you the "click" sound, it plays no part in the operation of the foot operated parking brake, a new part is around £2 from MB.
 
Easy to do, will fail mot if left.
 
Contacting mb today. Looks like the plastic ratchet has broken in half. No other damage.
