if more than 3 (depending on the area..some areas need 4 or more) attempts have been made to correct the problem and it still hasn't, then the car can be considered a lemon. And if the problem is life threatening, then i believe if it's not fixed in the first go, it is considered a lemon. It depends on where you are actually...

meaning do they replace it?

if it satisfies all the criteria of being a lemon.. then depending on how the person feels (if they want to stick with the brand and try again ) MB will buy back the lemon at what it's currently worth and possibly work out a deal for a new one.

THere is no even swap from my understanding of it. I believe u will get a better rate by the dealer by back but getting it to that point may not be as simple as I make it sound.

You might want to contact user KwiK because he just went through a lemon buy back with his E... he will be able to give more details...
