The engine pings in normal operation at speeds from approximately 30 to 70+ miles per hour after the engine warms-up. The dealer, dispite repeated attempts, has not been able to resolve the problem which, in my estimation is a safety issue as the dealer can not (or will not perhaps) say that the problem will not lead to failure of the engine or some significant component. The dealer advises that they have contacted daimlerchrysler corporation and have not been able to get advise that will resolve the problem.
