 2006 mercedes benz e350. coil spring failure. i had a rear coil spring fail in november 2010. then, a 2nd coil spring failure @ 70mph, this time in the front. we were very fortunate to not have been involved in a collision, mbusa insists there are no service bulletins relating to coil spring failure. but to have 2 spring break within 6 months of one another, on different suspension locations strikes me as a possible chronic problem.
