Thank you for your message HOWEVER, the mechanic who worked on my Crossfire is the ONLY knowledgeable mechanic within 100 miles.& presently takes care of two other Crossfires and a Viper. Mercedes won't touch the car and we have no independent Mercedes mechanics here in Traverse City that I know of. I failed to mention that the ECM is also shot and has to be cloned as well as the rear window has come loose and has to be sealed.My MAIN concern is that if repairs would be made, then what next fails. I would not feel safe driving any distance from home. My wife & I enjoyed many summers with the car but now its time she be retired. Again, thank you for your comments & concern
