MOVED FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO PALM SPRINGS, UPON BEING IN THE DESERT WITH INCREASED TEMPERATURES, MY CAR STARTED EMITTING STRONG FUMES THAT SMELL LIKE BURNING CRAYONS, THOUGHT IT WAS COMING FROM EXHAUST BECAUSE IT WAS BURNING MY EYES AND CAUSING HEADACHES. TOOK INTO DEALER AT PALM SPRINGS MERCEDES, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE DUE TO THE WAX THAT IS IN THE BODY OF CAR TO PROTECT FROM CORROSION. THEY STATED THAT WHEN THE WAX HEATS UP IT MELTS AND CAUSES THIS ODOR.
