This car is 11 months old and I've had the front pads replaced twice and the discs replaced once!? I just don't think this is right. The car has less than 15,000 miles for crying out loud!!!

I will be writing a letter to Mercedes about this issue... I'll let you know if I receive a satisfactory answer.

Are you having a pad issue or a rotor issue now? If your rotors were proven to be warped again, then the pads would suffer as well. If your rotors were straight and pads worn, then they will try to pawn it off as "wear and tear".
What happened again??
