2022 Mercedes-Benz E-Class STEERING,WHEELS,SERVICE BRAKES

Two rectangular blocks descend from the plastic shield under the front bumper. These blocks have a squared-off back. These blocks descend for about an inch, and are located a few inches in front of the front edge of the tires. In normal use, when the car is parked in a parking space the front tires roll forward to rest against the parking stop block, those descending vents hook onto parking stop blocks or curbing. When the vehicle is backed away from the parking space, the front shield can be torn away from its mounting points. The damaged, loose shield could strike and damage the front tires, or it could impact and damage the front brake lines, or it could obstruct the suspension, or the steering components.
