When the dealerships cannot fix the problem, who do I contact?

Hey everyone, glad to see most of you guys still around.

My mother's M class has a back-up camera issue where the camera feed will randomly not show up, leaving a fuzzy black screen. It looks like what you see when a television set not connected to a feed. I've brought it to two dealerships and left the car with them for long durations to let them diagnose the problem, but alas, they have found nothing.

I was lucky enough to have my camera one of these times that this has occurred and can provide MBUSA with proof. I would like to know, how should I contact them? Via phone? Fill out an email form on MBUSA.com?

Thanks to anyone with insight!

Hey man! Long time no see on here! How is the Camry treating you?

To answer your question, when I had to contact MBUSA about my C-class cam magnets I used the form on MBUSA. They were quick to respond and added my vehicle to the recall with no fuss.

Hey fellas! Glad I am remembered here haha. The Camry has been very reliable and is cheaper to mod, though there isn't much I've done. I do miss the c240, though. The Camry is like a boat.

We decided to let service have a go at it once more before we contact MBUSA. They've pulled up a past issue similar to ours on another vehicle and are going to replace a module of sorts as they did on the other vehicle. I'll know to use that form now, appreciate the input!
