mercedes is no longer the safest car, it is now volvo.

[Inu1294]

It was a new Model, as with any new model there was room for improvement.

[Christopher2398]

hope they improve in later models

[Flpyii]

after this test, mercedes redesigned the door structure on the r class. they retested the r class after this change and now it is a top safety pick...

people so hatin' when a merc does bad in a crash test

merc is trying to save money the last 15 or so years and have been using thinner metal and stuff - the japs have some cars that are safer than some merc models

[alexkvaskov]

Looks like Mercedes can't make a safe car anymore :D

USA is being an idiot when it comes to crash tests, hopefully we have Barack Obama, he will probably fix the standards of NHTSA
