I am so bummed. My 06 C230 was hit by a hit and run driver. Car was parked. Came out to find damage on the drivers side. Rear fender, rear door, rear wheel destroyed and tire flat, mirror broken. AAA insurance has been great so far. Car is at Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach for repair.

That sucks man. That happened to me at school a 2 winters ago, but they just scraped the rear bumper. I didnt notice until a weak later because of all the salt and snow on my car

Thanks guys,

The car was parked on a residential street....so no camera's and no one saw who did it. At least no one was hurt. Hopefully the guys at FJ Mercedes will do a good job on the repair.

youd be surprised by how many residents have outdoor cameras now-a-days. but if you are already in the process of getting it fixed-no big deal.

Got the repair cost....$7,800. Ouch! Glad I've got insurance. They told me there was a knuckle on the suspension that needed to be replaced in addition to all the body work. Should be done in 2 weeks.
