I received my letter today and my 99 C280 is one of the 100K plus cars effected by the recall. The letter went on to say it has a manufactuers quality control problem. It also said "other system will be check to see if they were effected." It say the balancer will be replaced for free, but nothing about other systems effected? I don't like that part.

Anyway, the dealer which is about 30 miles away is sending up someone to pick up the car and bring it back either in the afternoon or next morning. No charge, they asked if I wanted a free rental, I declined as the have Toyota Camry's 4cyliner automatic, which IMHO are horrible, and have the most uncomfortable seats Ilve sat in. My and my son's 79 450SLC has better seats IMHO then the Camry. This is happening on the 19th. I could have brought it down myself next week, but I can't drive that far the past couple of weeks due to my every worsening back problems. But I am hoping once the old lady divorces me is final I'll feel much better.
