MERCEDES BENZ 380 1981 car safety problem was reported on Aug 29, 1987.MERCEDES BENZ 380 1981, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . the timing chain failed, and the whole engine had to be replaced. at the time, in 1987, i believed mercedes that the problem was a one time issue, and that the problem was due to a poor driver who had owned the car previously. last week, a fried of mine, had a 1986, 380 sl fail with the same problem. after more investigation, i found out that mercedes changed the design of the timing component to use a double instead of a single chain. the change was made late in the 1980's. after investigating this web site, i see that there is a high frequency of timing chain failures on the 380 sl models in the 1980's. i would like to see a summary of all the failures over those years, and i think that mercedes owes something to all of us who have had to replace engines. thank you for your attention.*ak.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WDBBA45AXBB.
