Smells badly for gas in cabin and outside
Left and right rear seat belts will not retract.. Once pulled out, they do not retract.. Looking on mercedes forums, this seems like a very common safety problem that mercedes fails to address..

Nhtsa 08v682000 defect in power steering oil pressure driving pin. The nhtsa should reevaluate accepting mercedes benz underestimating of the amount of vehicles that were effected by this recall.there are still vehicles that are loosing power steering pressure due to the driving pin that is used to control power steering oil pressure being defective and this is a major safety issue that could result in deaths and accidents. The pin breaks during normal vehicle turning so the steering assist will no longer operate effectively it also causes other damage to the vehicle as a result of the hard steering defect as a result of the pin breaking. When driving cold the vehicle has power steering available, when warm vehicle looses power steering, fluid is circulating in power steering pump and pressure checks fine. As a result due to hard steering leaks develop due to power steering pressures variances in the steering system over time a fire and other potential problems can arise. There is also a popping sound felt in the steering wheel not due to tie rods.
The contact owns a 2008 mercedes benz ml550. While driving approximately 5 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to turn and force was applied. The failure recurred whenever the vehicle was in operation. The vehicle was diagnosed however, not repaired. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 08v682000 (steering). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.
Since i purchased the car, the suspension has been a major issue. When the suspension is faulty, sometimes the car is stuck down- not allowing the car to rise so whenever i drive through a speed bump, my car scrumps/scratches the bump. I have to fix it twice or more every year and it is quite frustrating. I would appreciate investigation into this as this is causing financial strain on me and my family.
