Smart Cars FFS!!

I unfortunately have 3 x 2011 Smart fortwo MHD's and one of them had a V-belt snap last night when one of the staff was half way to her home. Fortunately I had the FF with the car trailer with me to recover to my home overnight.

I have looked into this problem on-line and seen that its a very common inherent fault but wondered if any others have come across this, and what Mercedes Benz did regarding the repair / costs?

Brabus is prob the only one worth getting Thumbs Up

Well, I have just dropped the little POS at Stratstone Mercedes of Leeds.

Booked it in yesterday to be told that "we're really busy so we'll look at it on Wednesday 30th July"....Good job its nothing Censored urgent like a totally un-drivable car or anything I said sarcastically. Fortunately we have a spare pool car around right now, or i'd have to lend out the FF to one of the staff Big Cry

They better repair it as a gesture out of warranty as its a "common known design fault" and the car is 2.5 years with only 15K on the clock and fully MD serviced, otherwise i'll have it de-logo'd, then re-logo'd with the full issue in bold text all over it, and leave it parked outside the premises on the main road for all to see....
