2004 Mercedes-Benz S-Class SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 MERCEDES BENZ S600. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HYDRAULIC HOSE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN VERIFIED THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT BOTH THE ABC HOSE AND PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V228000 (SUSPENSION). HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I RECEIVED A BAS/ESP MALFUNCTION ON MY STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS THE SECOND TIRE MONITOR THAT HAS FAILED ON THIS CAR. I HAVE CONTACTED MERCEDES AND NOTIFIED THEM OF THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE IN REPAIRING THIS SAFETY/MECHANICAL FAILURE. THIS CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE SENSORS GOING BAD THIS QUICKLY.
