2002 mercedes benz s500 sport. after vehicle was shut off a very load growl came from under the hood on the right side. it was apparently the air compressor and it wouldn't shut off. the grumble or growl shook the car and smelled of electrical. the height of the car did not change. the growl stopped after about 10 minutes. i have parked the car outdoors as to not tempt fate with the possibility of a car fire in the garage in the middle of the night. there is obviously a failure in the air ride system. while i realize everything mechanical has the chance to fail i am deeply concerned that this component was running and has a chance to start a fire with the ignition in the off position. if this component fails while driving and drops the vehicle ride height on the highway the results could be catastrophic.
