What owners wrote
On 4/24/16, a toyota rear ended me and pushed me into the vehicle in front of me. The damage would have been repairable until my car caught on fire. It looked like it started in the inside above the gas tank area, but the man working at the impound lot the next day said it looked electrical. Either way, the impact should not cause a mercedes to catch on fire. I was on a city street stopped at a stoplight.
Fuel leaking/dripping after filling up with gas. The smell of gas prompted me to look under the vehicle and it was then that I saw a small pool of gas on the driveway. The leaking stopped when the tank was less than full and recurred when filling the gas tank. No damage yet, going to the dealer for their assesment.
