I don't see it. I think it'd be more horrified if there were exposed screwheads in the interior.

I am surprised to see that something this insignificant in upsetting you. I see nothing wrong. I just want the damn thing to have me at the dealership with complaints. A screw that you really cant see is not what would be high on my list of reasons not to purchase a Benz

My dad has owned an ML for the past three years and that has never caught my attention.

I noticed that when I owned a ML350, especially the aerodynamic drag at 100mph+.
