Mercedes knew in 2018 there was a problem with weighing loading. On Sept 7 I received a recall notice. Now almost 3 month later they still have no fix. At this time my vehicle is in my mind unsafe to drive due to excessive tire wear on the fron end. Don't want to purchase 2 more tires at my expense, since I only have 23,000 miles on vehicle. Have replaced 2 at 15,000 miles. Seems like Mercedes is just plain dragging this out and hoping said vehicle owners will drop the whole thing. Help!!

There is an open recall for 3 months whereby there is a possibility that wheels are inappropriately specified and not able to carry body weight. My van is constantly have trouble with tires/wheels breaking, ripping within no time. I feel like I-??m buying new tires every 1-1.5 years. It is a constant state of low tire pressure warnings followed by replacing tires. In May 2022, I had an incident where torn/leaking tire was filled with air by MB roadside assurance and incorrectly installed on my van. The result was that the tire flew off my van while in motion. I replaced all 4 tires with a slighter higher load tire because I was so scared by the incident. Less than 3 months later, one of those tires was torn on the interior. Replaced again. Today I am driving and again one of the new tires suddenly indicates dropped pressure to 34 compared to others at 41. I feel that the rapidly deterioration of tires is due improperly indicated weight load.
