that's just horrible...
I assume they're putting them in right now? I say you try to get MB Corporate to give you something for that...

yeah well, i had my COMAND replaced 4 months after i had it installed. so i told them the new COMAND they put in didnt have the SAT button and the one they took out did. they pulled my VMI and saw there was indeed a replaced COMAND. but they also noticed that my car did not have COMAND from the factory.
oh well it was worth a shot!

i rarely use mine unless the windshield is dirty, or if i used the wipers to remove moisture but it just smeared. i only use the headlamp washers before i wash the car and just to show them to people. they make such a mess.

Hey, I just bought my 05 coupe and one of the first things that I noticed was that the windshield washers didnt work! I was going to mention it when I take my car in for the first 3K comp service.

you should be getting a call from your salesman (again, "should be") in the next couple of days. I would mention it to her/him, or better yet, if you've got time, get it fixed now. It's a warranty item, and they should bend over backwards to make you happy.

it's all gravy ! ![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
let's see if you're car is plagued with the same winshield washer "German factory oversight" as HITMAN. Hopefully, this isn't contagious. Everyone should go out right now, and test their windshield washers !![hammer](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/bonk.gif)
yeah right.... too lazy to clean up the windshield afterwards.

hmmm, hadn't heard that one before. I'll do a search. Last I remember reading somewhere on these forums was the ML (not sure exactly which series) was manufactured in Alabama. not sure about other models though.
wouldn't that be funny ? but then, there would be some guy running around with windshield washers trying to sell them at a swap meet !

coupes are not made in the US! ML's yes. plus they are revamping the factory, all factory tours are closed. check out http://www.mbusi.com/
