PLEASE tell me how unreliable my ML is.


Please make me laugh my ass off.

I've replaced the catalytic converters and fuel pump. That's all that's been done.

They are honestly one of the most unreliable, expensive to maintain/fix cars you can buy lol. If nothings happened to yours its either bullshit or a miracle.

Ever owned one? I've got 4 owners vouching it to me, and several second hand accounts of owners who love them.

People like to pretend that what they bought isn't a pile of shit lol

I know several people that have owned them, alot closer to when they were new. They didn't have good experiences.

I'm not pretending anything. I think it's great, but that doesn't mean I have some delusion that 24 hours is enough for me to know exactly what I've got. It was intended as a legitimate question. I do think that "closer to when they were new" sorta discredits the review though. The 99 Mustang was a pile of shit when it rolled off the lot, but since then many of them have been quite neatly ironed out and made into champions of their generation.

My parents owned MB's when i was growing up and their reliability and quality grew on me.

I don't give a shit what anyone says because firsthand experience seeing an E class get to 220K with no issues, one S500 that got to 260K before someone hit my dad in it, his current S550 at 150K with only control arm issues, my ML that hasn't had shit for issues at 385K and my sister has a C230 with 180K or so and no issues.


I'm a Ford guy myself. My first car was a Mustang, then this ML, now my CRZ. Still have all 3, but I'll put money that the ML will outlive any.



Just my opinion. From my experience.
