What's wrong with my Merc?
I have a 2003 Mercedes E 200 and both front wheel arches have dropped so I can't drive it. Any idea what the problem might be? It was the left front first and then a week later the other side.
Our answer:
Hi Ken,
Without seeing the car it sounds like the springs have broken, though it's surprising that both have gone at the same time. Best thing you can do is get the car to a qualified mechanic to look at it.
