My friend who works in MB said that currently, VW's market share is growing and now casued MB doesn't want to increase prices for their entry level cars. The consequence is that now they will charge more for the cars on repairs which are still under the warranty. (Before, many parts would be free if you purchase the higher car price).
Last month when I call, the phone answering started with Autosportiva, last few days ago when I called, it changed to "Auto Italia", Alfa/Fiat ..... bye bye!
