2003 sl500 gas tank rattle

Ok so I am now another victim of the loose baffle in the gas tank. Has anyone had any luck getting Mercedes to fix this issue?

OR

Does anyone know of anyway to make this stop without replacing the tank. Right now I just keep the tank full ..

I cant believe Mercedes hasnt taken accountability for this....

Does it sound like there's a cellophane bag in the trunk moving around?

No .. It's sounds like metal clanking from fuel sloshing in tank.. I don't hear the noise when tank is full.
