Description of the problem	In august 2012 my car's engine light and vsc light came on. I took the car to the dealer and they found multiple misfires. The dealer replaced the gasket and 3 pistons and ring sets under warranty. My car engine has continued to intermittently shudder when moving and when idling at stop lights. Today (1/3/17) i was driving on the highway at normal speed and once again my engine light and vsc light are lit up. I received the 9 year extended warranty for carbon buildup, but it only covers me through 3/8/17. If i have carbon buildup again after that, it will cost me $2,000-$3,000 to fix. The engine failure in these is250s (2006-2013) is rampant and the car model needs to recalled and replaced.
