WE WERE SOUTH BOUND ON US131 AND WAS STRUCK IN THE DRIVERS DOOR. ENTIRE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE HAS DAMAGE FROM FRONT BUMPER TO REAR WHEEL. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND THE COMPUTER HAS A STORED CODE FOR BOTH DRIVERS SIDE DOORS. I HAVE CONTACTED MERCEDES AND THEY CONTEND THAT THE AIR BAGS PERFORMED PROPERLY. VEHICLE IS JUST NOW BEING DISASSEMBLED TO DETERMINE DAMAGE SO I THINK MERCEDES MIGHT BE COVERING SOMETHING UP. *TR
