The adjustment up and down of the vehicle's steering column regularly sticks in the full "up" position and then cannot be easily re-adjusted. I have taken the vehicle in three times for servicing of this problem and the dealer solution was to only re-lubricate bearings and gears. Finally after problem has become more acute has the Mercedes dealer agreed to replace steering column in total.

THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING AND IN RESULT, THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES THAT I ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT.
