Car is only 7 years old, always garaged, basically a main part rusted out. Mercedes prides itself on durability and safety.  There were no warning lights, alarms, nothing.  Whenever I braked the rear end of the car would slide to the left and I had to try and adjust accordingly. Prior to bringing the car in for its maintenance I was reluctant to drive it on highways and at higher speeds. Now that I am aware of the problem, had the rear of the car given out while I was on a highway, I had the potential to roll over and possibly blown up had the gas tank been impacted. I researched the issue on Google and found many instances of others having the same issue, with the same part, luckily no one appears to have been killed as yet.  As I mentioned this was never picked up during all the scheduled maintenance work,  nor state inspections, all handled by this dealership.   The dealership is in the process of replacing the part and all work associated with that replacement.  I don't know if they kept the part or tossed it out, but will ask. No one else has seen the car or rusted part other than the dealership.  I'm also sending you a copy of the letter I sent to he dealership and Mercedes-Benz Home Office.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"MERCEDES-BENZ","productModel":"E350","manufacturer":"Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC"}]}]}
