alignment issue - pulls to the right
They should be able to fix this. I did not take delivery of my car until they corrected which took a couple of hours on a complex computer alignment machine and the use of a "camber kit" - something from the parts department.
Now it is perfect. BTW the tech said a lot of the cars are coming back for this so it is very common.
Unless you have a bent frame (extrordinarily unlikely) they should be able to fix it with a proper alignment. Maybe you need to take it to another dealer?

If anybody actually gets the ticking issue resolved please post a message explaining the actual fix. It sounds like at this point that we are talking about some level of acceptance by MB that there is a problem but I have yet to hear of anyone who has actually had it resolved.
Would be great to hear about a real solution.
Thanks

The reason: I am from Canada, and I went to my dealer to talk about this problem yesterdau after reading your informative post. They have no idea about it because MBUSA and MB Canada do not talk to one another nor share info.
