section for organizing claims for faulty design?

shouldnt we as owners be more organized in dealing with poorly designed systems that continuously fail and cost us money?
maybe a section for people to better catalog their issues that way its easier to start a class action suit that can potentially lead to a recall and our problems being fixed by mercedes and owning up to their scammy ways of built in design flaws that make these cars worthless or costing the end user 1000s of dollars to fix over and over again( balance shaft/cam gears that were supposed to be fixed first time but came back after multiple replacements)

unless yall cool with paying for repairs caused by the purposely bad design.. then i rest my case

imagine mercedes being on the top 3 spots for reliability... you will never have a problem selling your used mercedes again because people will trust the brand name just like toyota

I hear ya but with all the models things would get lost inside.
best to just list them in each current vehicle section with cross- referencing.

But I say just force them to fix it by buying something other than a MB.
