The brake fluid lines are corroding much faster than in other models, and without actual corrosion under the car. It happened to my car, and I have been reading forums of MB owners of this same R model, as well as C, E, GLK, and ML models all reporting the same issues. The lines corroding earlier to due to the brake boost system failure and other fluids/air entering the system is the most consistent cause of brake line failure I was able to get off the internet, as well as MB not using lines with proper material. The only thing I know is that the lines are not supposed to fail this early and this bad. It happened while driving north on [XXX] in NY INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I called the Dealership to schedule the appointment. They told me they have no appointment available for next 3 weeks and even I wait for that long they will not be able to provide me a loaner car. The total job time is 4-6hrs I am not willing to wait that long. This dealership was not helpful at all in-spite of this is a very serious safety concern. STOP DRIVE REMEDY. Worst Customer Service for the brand we have.
