Help!!!
Hello all, I really need your help on this one. I LEASED my CLK 500 on 9/27/02. On 11/01/02 someone pulled out in front of me and caused approximately 10K damage to the front end of the car. I did not hit hard enough for the airbags to deploy so the damage was really not that bad. I certainly didn't expect 10K worth of damage. But that is all beside the point. My body shop gave me an estimated repair time of 2 weeks from the time they have all the parts. Here's where the problem begins. It has been 2 1/2 months and they can't get all of the parts from Mercedes. I think this is absolutely ridiculous. When I leased the car I was under the assumption that parts would be readily available in case of an accident. What recourse do I have? I am paying $850 a month for a car that I can't drive because the car's manufacturer (MB)doesn't have access to parts for their cars. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I have already called the 800 number to complain but that hasn't gotten me anywhere. Thanks in advance.
