Replacing a part on a Mercedes Windshield- Charging for Installation
Posted on 4/21/15 at 1:34 pm
Posted on 4/21/15 at 1:34 pm
My GF (no pics) has a 2009 Mercedes. One of the pieces on the windshield has either been stolen or fell off. She called the dealership she bought her car from and the replacement piece is $157. The problem is that they want to charge her to install it. Wouldn't it be good customer service to install it for free since she bought that car there about 2 years ago?
ETA: It's the drip rail molding that needs to be replaced

I've never known a dealership to do things for free.

Dealerships do not do anything for free.

One of the pieces of the windshield?
And the dealer will charge you anything once you drive it of the lot the first time. (Unless you got a warranty.)

Windshields have parts?

She owns a Mercedes, tell her to fork over the $1K to fix it and bend over and take it like a real Mercedes owner

Because it's a $150 part plus labor?

its a 6 year old car likely not under warranty, why would they install something for free?

The black market on those things rivals that of 21 kilos of blow on the beach in Destin.
