• There are some very large potholes located where the sliproad from the A50 joins the A46 northbound, direction towards Newark. It is difficult and dangerous to navigate around potholes whilst looking over your shoulder and mirrors to join a busy dual carriageway safely. On the 17th March 2023 my front drivers side wheel hit a pot-hole and damaged the inner side of the alloy wheel. There is a crack in the alloy causing the tyre to deflate every few days. Mercedes advised the only safe repair is to replace the wheel (not the tyre) which I have now done. I would like to make a claim for reimbursement of the alloy wheel. I have photos and the damaged wheel for inspection if required. Please advise next steps?
