Used Warranty - Broken Door Handle LEDs
Hi Guy sorry if this is the wrong section, been reading for a long time but first time posting.
A couple of weeks a go I jumped the boat and got my first Merc, a used E class, was pretty excited about it, but it then started having some issues so I ended up having to take it in for service a few weeks after owning it.
One of the issues was that one of the door handle LEDs stopped working. I was told by the dealership this would cost me over £500 to repair and was not covered under my warranty! I rang them up and told them I've literally just bought this car and they tell me that all they can do is take 50% off and I now have to pay £260 odd pound for a light on a recently purchased car.
Not super happy about that, wanted to put a post up asking for any advice on this as I don't want my car to have something wrong with it while driving (who does) but spending that kind of money on a light for a car I just bought seems ridiculous. Was expecting Mercedes to treat new customers better than that, any tips guys or just suck it up and drive an almost great car?
