You're a good friend.

This situation is just not right.

Has the dealership seen it happen? I can't imagine the dealers service having replicated the issue, and then saying nothing can be done about it and that's that. If the dealer has acknowledged the issue, tell your friends to leverage that into getting it resolved with corporate.

The only satisfactory outcome, personally for me, would be they either fix it, or replace it.

Companies, especially those like MB, pride themselves on being perceived as meeting and exceeding customers expectations. A lot can be done when they're made aware that your friends can have that tarnished publicly through avenues such as social media to have wasted at least $60k on a unreliable let alone dangerous "luxury" vehicle.

Also do what will said above. Make sure they meet the stipulations four CA's lemon law. ie. Hypothetically, the car has had to have been in service to correct the same issue for a total of more than 30 days without being resolved. Etc.

That way, you'll have at least two lines of defense.

GL.
