rear strut gone! aftermarket warranty covering it!
So i saw an oil drip mark from rear drivers side on my car...turned out the rear strut is shot. I was worried about the bill as it is 2700$cdn at MB and I jut gotmcar and aftermarket warranty..but MB called me and they accepted/authorized the claim..said guy almost SH*T on the phone when he heard the total bill, but was ok with it..im SO relieved! basically paid for the ext. warranty already!

Well done! Thanks for the info I will be contacting this company very soon! My SL has 70k so I'm sure you know what time it is! I used to live in Toronto down on Gloucester and Church, awesome town and people.
Peace,
Garret

Maybe you shouldn't bother. The ChryslerFactoryPlans warranty mentioned here may be much better: http://www.benzworld.org/forums/r230...ml#post3583061.

cars at MB for batt issue frounf tranny mount issue.warranty covered it!
So i have had a few small issues with my car since i got it.
strurt, that aftermarket INDS warranty covered it.
my battery hav been ongoing..i replaced BOTH and still would die over night.
Alarm was spuradic o go off.
Tjis time MB said it was the SIREn, so they replaced it and also said all my region codes were gone! so car didnt know if usa or cdn car..dealer knows car as local..so they fixed all that..seeme to have solved the dying battery issue! they say.we will see whn i get car in my possession.
they found thet tranny mount was totally shot and trany resting on whatever..so they fixed that and warrant is covering it no issues.
Im still waiting to hear re: the siren stuff & my turn signal was not wrking evne with new bulb..so i will keep thread posted. INDS is great so fr as aftermarket warrant no deductible.
