• Recall R/2018/206 [UK]: Oil foam may develop in the active curve system oil reservoir
  It has been determined that on model series ml/gle gl/gls (166) & gle coupe (292) with active curve system (acs) oil foam may develop in the systems oil reservoir under dynamic operating conditions and at an oil level below the minimum level and escape via the ventilation bores in the cap of the reservoir. Depending on the orientation of the two ventilation bores the escaping oil could spray onto hot component parts of the exhaust system. In this case risk of fire cannot be ruled out.
  on affected vehicles replace the oil dipstick of the reservoir for the active curve system.

My husband was going on his third deployment, he did not want me to have any car problem, so we spent almost 70k for a brand new 2011 mercedes gl blue tech. However, less than 30 days and 1460 miles, the steering wheel quit working during a turn, it almost killed me. I have contacted the dealer (valley motor mercedes, hunt valley , md )and the mercedes, they could not explain why this happened, they do not care about my safety and refused to replace the car. They did not care the fact i was scared to death to drive the car either, they charge such high price for a junk car, and refused to hold the responsibility. Shame on them, my husband put his life on the line to protect those kind people ! *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2011 mercedes benz glk350. The contact stated that the cruise control switch and the turn signal were both located on the left side of the steering wheel. Whenever he activated the left of right turn signals, his hand would hit the cruise control causing it to engage instead of the turn signal which was a design flaw. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who stated the vehicle was designed that way and could not be changed. The manufacturer was contacted and also stated that since the switch was designed on the same side of the steering wheel they could not be changed. The failure mileage was 4,000.
