The navigator isn't working well. The technicians couldn't find a problem but downloaded the latest navigation software. And the engine is dragging when I accelerate from 20mph or so. Performed a recall for the engine and now everything is working much better. The engine recall made my car's pickup much better.

Dealer repaired bank 1, fuel injector 5 and 6 were not working and ignition coil 5 was out. after 400 miles of driving, check engine light popped up and dealer identified that fuel injector for cylinder 2 & 3 are not working causing misfire. Dealer wanted to drop the tank @ my cost of $1500, and after that any parts required, will be extra. On top of that the injector for 2 & 3 will not be covered, which was another $1750. Plus god knows what other issues they identify and slap the bill on me. So, I personally purchased fuel injectors from the dealer and replaced it, to find the care running smoothly as ever.

TIRES! This car eats tires like cops eat donuts. It has has THIRTEEN flat tires -- ALL OF THEM SIDEWALL BUBBLES -- all repaired at the dealership. I believe it's the design of the AMG rims. If you'd like to add $200 a month to your car payment and get randomly stranded waiting for roadside assistance to come change your tires, this is the car for you!
