It takes a lot of bad quality for a company to have all of its brands LAST...

We had talked about quality on this board, while comparing the Jeep and the Benz....and I think this is proof why you should spend the extra money and buy a ML350.

I recently had a Dodge vehicle for my wife which is now gone partly due to the crappy quality and brutal service. The WORST service ever from multiple local dealerships. Every time there was a problem I felt like a defendant on trial trying to get them to help me. I thought briefly about a new Grand Cherokee but shuddered to think of committing to the crappy service for years to come.

My MB dealer treats me like I am Donald Trump. Love that!!!

Excited to one day see MB back at number one like they were for soooo many years prior!

One way to think of it, it may be a couple thousand cheaper yet you will more than make up the difference if the problems are as frequent as this documentation shows. I mean all three brands? What it means is that the company has obviously taken the short route and cut corners to build a nice looking vehicle on the outside.

I had a Dodge since 2006 and barely had any issues, it seems like times has changed with Chrysler. Too bad, I loved my Charger...
