As for their sales,they sell many times more than Lexus for global sales."
You are completely wrong on all accounts, it would be nice to have facts before people post stuff online.

I changed it because i thought i did not frame my sentense very well.CR are biased,ive said that before else where,i don't need to change anything.

As for your latest change to your post. Yes, it is very detailed. They ask about every single thing in detail. They know make/model/year/options etc(and VIN # I believe, I'll check on that). You obviously know nothing about CR, but are quick to talk them down.

Do you know whether they ask for VIN's,you don't ,and that is the only way you can verify what vehicle a person drives.So you too don't know much either/

Try using them as a guide to purchasing products and then tell me their value. They are the largest asset a consumer has, and have served our family and everyone I know VERY well. Any time anyone strays from the results in that publication, they suffer the consequence, then you come back to it and are a happy consumer.

Maybe it helps you,A 98 ML owner doesn't need CR to tell them it was a bad car.That was the worst car ever made by Mercedes a fact acknowledged by everyone.
I am not spreading rumors.CR is what a US body how does it have to authority about what happen through out the world.JD power is a better reference if you want and here is what they say for the US

Mercedes-Benz and Toyota models capture three segment awards each. Toyota models that receive awards are the4Runner, Sequoia and Tacoma. Mercedes-Benz models that earn awards are the E-Class, SL-Class, and the S-ClassThe S-Class ties with the Audi A8(total) for having the fewest quality problems in the industry, with just 72 problems per 100 vehicles.
“Mercedes-Benz shows dramatic improvement, particularly with its newly-redesigned S-Class, which improves 63 PP100,” said Oddes. “Overall, Mercedes-Benz improves its nameplate rank by 20 positions—the greatest rank increase of any nameplate in the study. All Mercedes-Benz models in the study improved substantially, and the breadth and speed of these improvements demonstrates the Mercedes-Benz commitment to quality.”
