Should a dealer replace my new car if the front suspension snapped?

The left suspension/wishbone snapped on my 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA 220d 4Matic. Would this be a manufacturing fault and would Mercedes-Benz replace it with a new car?

Unless you hit something then this had to be a manufacturing fault and you have a case for an outright replacement with a new car. See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/consumer-rights/
