2003 E500 front right side suspension
Hello everyone,
I am brand new to the forum, I hope I posted this in the right section?
I have a 2003 E500 and today I was running some errands and I heard a little noise (maybe like a grinding sound) and the car felt funny I pulled into a parking lot got out and looked and the front right side of my car was sitting on top of the tire. I pushed the button to try to raise the car and it would go up but it made a funny noise and then it would go right back down. Does anyone have any ideas at all of what it could be? I have also had a popping noise in the front end when I turn. Would that have anything to do with it? (I did just have the front ball joints replaced about 4 weeks ago)
Thank you!!!!!!

You air suspension failed. Big problem with that problem prone model. Tow it to an indie mercedes shop and get out the check book. Unfortunately
