Big Gap on my 05' E320
Hi,
I have this gap in my hood that's driving me crazy... it seems like a really wide gap for a certified MB... has this car been in an accident? It did not show any kind of accident when i purchased it thru a MB dealer with the carfax report. Since this is a certified MB, would MB repair this under warrenty? the rest of the hood alignment seems to be ok as in the second photo... this gap seems to get wider as time goes by also... weired!
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hmm, Interesting...
If its certified and still under warranty, make arrangements to send it to the dealer. If possible bring it to the same dealer through which you purchased it. If they come back with the argument that it's been in an accident, and YOU yourself didn't crash it, (not to instill doubt but I see it occasionally
) and you weren't informed about it prior to purchase then, you'll need to take it up with the sales department.

ok... this is not normal.
No, i didn't crash the car myself.
Since this car is still under warranty.. i plan to take it back to the authorized body shop and see what they have to say... the dealer that i purchased from claim the car was not involved in an accident and showed me the carfax report... i should have known better about carfax....
this is going to be interesting.....
