Today I noticed something hanging down from the bottom right of the back of my car. After some research it looks like the wishbone is cracked On the right side? Should I order the part from Mercedes and have them replace it? You can see the difference from the right and the left I’m the pictures. Is it still drivable?
Thank you

Should be a warranty repair and definitely a safety concern. I'd report it to the NHTSA just to let them know in case there are other failures: File a Vehicle Safety Complaint | Safercar.gov | NHTSA

That’s a safety issue , I wouldn’t drive with it that way . Mercedes needs to repair and report .

I’ll be crawling under my 2017 and checking tomorrow .

There are TWO cracks, the second is near the right wheel...

Question ? Has there been any modifications to the suspension? Has there been any type of driving events that could be causative ? ie , curb hits , evasive crash avoidance maneuvers, etc....

All good advice... get it towed to a Mercedes dealer asap, to get the process started.

Finally got around to inspecting them on my 2016 smart with 34k miles. Both sides look fine.

You may want to check the lower motor mount.
It looks like the transmission came down and back, that broke the rear cross link.
