Hi
Had my letter today, for my CLS55, I went to Sandown Mercedes in Salisbury, asked for the scope of the sunroof work, but all they said was that it would take 3-3.5 hours and I would need to book the car in for an inspection to inspect the date stamp on the Sunroof glass/mechanism, to see if it is one of the effected cars.
It appears from the paperwork of the recall that it effects the Sunroof assemblies with a date stamp in the region of early 2006.
My car being registered 23rd December 2005 we weren't sure why it had been recalled as the build date was even earlier October 2005 I think, but possibly as it is a MY 2006 and has the option code 806.
Realizing I had the car with me they offered to inspect it there and then, and as anticipated it didn't require the recall work to be carried out, I was a little disappointed as I was going to get them to replace the seal as it has a load of green algae on it.
To say I was surprised that they were recalling a 14 and half year old car for this is an understatement.
Has anyone got any info on the Takata airbag recall? As MB stated they know nothing about it at the minute.
