WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF FUEL UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WHEEL BASE AND IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WITH ON OCCASION A SMALL LEAKAGE OF FUEL ON THE FLOOR. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND SIMILAR PROBLEMS ON SEVERAL W211 CARS. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AND THEY ARE NO HELP EXCEPT TO SAY IT WILL COST AROUND $2000 TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. I DID FIND THAT THERE WAS SOME CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE NHTSA THIS YEAR IN APRIL CONCERNING THIS MATTER BUT DID NOT KNOW THE OUTCOME AND MERCEDES IS NOT WILLING TO HELP AT THIS TIME. THANK YOU *TR

DEAR SIR/MADAM, I HAVE A SERIOUS COMPLAINT AGAINST THE CONTINENTAL CONTIPROCONTACT TIRES THAT CAME WITH MY MERCEDES BENZ E550 AND ALSO THE NEW ONES I RECENTLY PURCHASED. THE CAR HAS ONLY 20K MILES ON IT AND THE SIDE WALLS ON THE TIRES ARE VERY WEAK. I HAD 1 BUBBLE EACH DEVELOP ON 2 OF THE TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE CAR AFTER DRIVING OVER 2 SMALL POTHOLES RECENTLY. I ALSO HAD A SIDEWALL ISSUE ON THE THIRD TIRE THAT CAME WITH THE CAR AND THE NEW ONE I JUST PURCHASED. THE RECENT INCIDENT WAS THE WORST WHERE BOTH SIDEWALLS BURST OPEN WHEN I HIT A POT HOLE. I REALLY THINK THAT THE QUALITY OF THE TIRES IS VERY POOR BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO BE IMPACTING THE SIDEWALLS. I WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS THIS WITH
