brought my car in for SBC and there is an additional recall notice as well
I brought my car in this morning for service and the SBC recall, they referred to an additional "campaign" regarding a drain plug under the hood that is faulty, it allows water to come into the passenger footwell...there is a gromet that needs to be replaced. The recall number is #2004070020
Ps. i noticed a 2005 e320 with the old style center armrest....in the showroom but it had the new air vents...

Dropped off 03 for service and they told me (very quick discussion – no details) that there was another recall that involved swapping out the grommets to the sunroof because water can leak into the interior. I’ll get more info when I pick it up.

I brought in my '03 replacement car in today... and they did the SBC update... and checked and my car was not "affected" by the drain plug recall. I guess '03's were affected.. but the NAV cars and maybe "early 04's?" so they did get the new plug?
Would be interested to hear if any of the NAV replacement cars needed that plug addressed?
