ABS ESP PRE-SAFE message
I got these messages on the dash over the weekend on my 06 S430 (ABS ESP PRE-SAFE). I dropped it off at the Dealer today. After an inspection the Service Rep. informs me that a connector under the rear seat apparently got wet and corroded away. He said it is not covered under the warranty and is sticking me with a $866 bill. I am pissed since I never drink or eat in my cars. I did not spill anything in the rear seat... What to do ?? !

When I talked to the Service rep. yesterday I told him not to fix it. I had an idea to bring it to Manhattan Mercedes. He said okay but I would owe him $250 for the time spent on diagnosing the problem. So I decided to have it fixed there. I picked it up today. Total was $838. WTF !..... A while back I had it in the shop for a problem with the rear windows rolling back down about 6 inches after rolling them up using the auto-express button. He said they could not duplicate the problem. I think what happened is 1 night when I got home I rolled the windows up and they rolled back down and I didn't notice, then we had a thunderstorm. The rear seat probably got soaked. I informed the service manager about this and I duplicated the problem right in front of him today. He said he is going to talk to Mercedes to see what they can do . Btw, the dealer is Prestige.
