I received a recall notice for this vehicle stating that the wheels may not be safely attached and could come off back in early May. It's been over a month and Mercedes has no solution for the recall at this time. I'm looking to get help with not having to pay my lease since I cannot use the car safely.

While driving at around 35mph, the recently-installed rear left snow tire on the car popped off and was propelled several hundred feet down the road. Upon reviewing the recall information of the car, it seems likely the indicent was caused by defective wheel bolts.
