Hey AMG bad boys, both front struts failed on my car and the dealer wants 3000 $ to fix. I drive an 04 e55 with 22K on it, had the car since new. My warranty ran out in december of 07. I was bull**** ,so i called MB USA AND explained the situation so I hit the lottery and they are willling to give me a post warranty and fix at no cost . Thank god , moral of the story keep arguing and you'll get what you want, I love AMG!

I had both rear shocks replaced under warranty at 12K miles. My car was not lowered as I had my stockers on at that time. My warranty expired a few months ago. If the fronts fail, I know who to call.

They're paying up because its not that uncommon.
Happened to me at about 60k km. MB Australia paid half as my car was well out of warranty.
