A very good friend had the pulley fall of in a garage, he had it towed to MB, they charged $400 some odd dollars plus a rental car. There was no bulletin at that time and the car was out of warranty, by a few thousand miles. The dealer in Kentucky inspected the car before the "road trip" and claimed no knowledge of any problems. Then he gets a letter from Klaus Uhlman saying send in your bill and we will re-eburse you. The check he recived was for $250, claiming they do not pay retail price for parts and no towing.
he should be able to get the full reimbursement. BTW, you no longer need the letter. MB has sufficient stock of replacements. Anyone want to know if their car is affected, I can do a check for you. PM me and I can see what I can find out.
