We answered

TfL Ref: FOI-2800-1819

Thank you for your email of 22nd January 2019 in which you asked: “How many Mercedes-Benz GL 320 CDI have failed annual inspection in the last 5 years due to faulty transfer case/box or faulty drive shafts?”.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy.

It is not entirely clear from the wording of your request exactly what information you are after. If your request relates to all models of that vehicle nationwide, or London-wide, then this is not information that is held by Transport for London (TfL). If your request relates specifically to vehicles owned by TfL then the answer is none, as there are no such models in the TfL fleet. If your request is to be interpreted in some other way and you think TfL can assist, please let me know and I can consider the matter further.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely,

David Wells

FOI Case Officer
