New Here with a SLK 250 (R172)

[Deby]

Hello All,

I have a 2013 SLK 250. I'm haveing issues with the vario roof delaminating from the frame. If anyone is having or had this issue, I would love to know how you fixed it.

Hi,  This is a world wide known issue. The same happened to my 2012 SLK250. I had to fight with Mercedes and the dealer here in Australia to get it replaced under warranty. I don’t know about American consumer law but here if a product is not fit for purpose or fails in an unreasonable time in relation to it’s cost and expected life then it must be repaired at the manufactures cost regardless of whether or not you are the original owner. In Europe there was a recall issued to replace these roofs. I would make enquires as to your legal rights as this is clearly fault in product or manufacture. Kind regards, Steve Warren Australia.
