    A reporter for an influential U.S. publication is working on a piece about Mercedes and would like to hear from consumers. He’s wondering whether the recent quality problems are enough to stop consumers from buying Mercedes in the future. He also cites that Mercedes says it has worked hard to fix the various problems and is producing the best quality cars ever. He’d especially appreciated hearing from any long-time Mercedes drivers around who agree or disagree. If you have a story to share, please respond to pr@edmunds.com with your daytime and evening contact info., city/state of residence and what models of Mercedes you own/have owned, no later than Weds., Sept. 28, 2005.

    I wonder if they are interested in someone who doesn't own a current model car.

    I will say current issues won't stop me from buying another MB, but it likely won't be brand new.

    Well... my daughter can't see out the back of my MDX. Probably because she's only 7 weeks old, though.

    HUH???

    I'm definitely missing something here. does it matter if the kids can't see out the back? what are they looking for out there? heck, that's why i got one with a dvd player, so they can stare at that rather than looking back to see what we have already passed on the road. (????)

    We heard that you had a baby and we hope you are all doing well.

    If your life gets a little hectic taking care of a new baby and keeping Edmunds on track, think of this little poem:

    Cleaning and dusting can wait till tomorrow,
    For babies grow up, we have learned to our sorrow.
    So quiet down cobwebs, dust go to sleep.
    I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.

    The years go by so fast. It semes like yesterday that our daughter was born. Well, in about an hour she and her husband will be over to our house with their two children to celebrate Christmas with our son and his fiance. Jeannine, I hope you and your family will be as lucky as we have been.

    I purchased a 2005 Cobalt a few months ago and paid cash. I bought what I could afford. I do like the Cobalts, but now I am scared to drive it now that it has an electrical problem and a recall. It is a sedan and I would like to know if I can just demand my refund of money? Can I demand a new one without the defect? It has six thousand miles on it, can I demand the exact price I paid to be applied to a Cobalt coupe? I want my money back or a different car.
