Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify VIN-specific fuel clamp and driveshaft recall completion.
3. Ask for brake hose, caliper and steering hose repair records.
4. Verify parking pawl repairs and camera/display recall completion.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Mercedes-Benz dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
