| I am the owner of a c-230 4 door sedan vin# wdbrf40j93f386357. i have an issue that i was looking into addressing when another major issue just arrose that i need help from the manufacturer who i have contacted but not received a response. 1) last week i decided to quote insurance and make a change to allstate. once they put in the vin# major issues came. the price was way different then what i was paying with mercury. to make this short, after talking to my broker at mercury, it turns out my 4 door has the vin# of a 2 door coupe. i called beverly hills ltd where i purchased the car new. they did nothing. i have the original temp registration from the day i purchased the car new, and the dealer typed coupe not four door and on the lease agreement. i did not notice this. here are my issues. the coupe is more expensive on insurance - i have been overpaying since 2/2003. 2nd, am i paying a fair lease rate if the vin# is for another body style. this car has been nothing but nightmare to deal with since the day i purchased it. it has been serviced 8 times, transmission work, 2 computers, camshaft, new radio, idle issues, brake system failed, and so on. it's a complete lemon. it is going in next week again. i have only 21,000 on the car, and drive my 2nd car more a 79 300sd mercedes as it is more reliable then this new car. i need somewhere, someone to go to, any information would be greatly appreciated. thanks so much, darren weingarten - phone or email *jb | |||
