We can all agree the dude was a bit dramatic.

The more important question is - How and why did this happen?!

I wonder in this case, whether it is the insurer that will take care of it or MB's warranty.

If he has one of those "replacement car that is 1-year newer," he will get a 2016 model! LOL The one in the video is a 2015.
