Failed Voice Control

Are there others here with a failed Voice Control Module on a 2008?
Most likely early 2008 models.

There was a DTB P-B-82.70/675 for a hardware failure of the module on W211 and W219 cars that use the exact same module.

My early build 2008 GL module is dead, and I am wondering if others had this problem and were able to get it fixed by MB.

Under the rear seat on the drivers side, under the SOS phone module.
