Description of the problem	I've had this problem several times where i put in the car key to start the car, yes it starts up but the gas gauge ,speedometer, and the rest on the dash go to all the way down and don't move, then my check engine light turns on. Sometimes the car doesn't start as well . I've gone to the dealership to buy a new key thinking it was the key but still the same problem. I saw that most of the c class has been recalled for the same issues i'm having but they didn't recall the c230. I believe you guys should do better investigation next time because i don't think i should have to pay to repair something that came defective. Also i've noticed that the 2006 c class also has a recall for the airbag which i've has the esn or esp letters popping up on ny dashboard stating something about the airbag yet my vehicle isn't eligible for that recall as well and i ask myself why? If they same problems i'm having are exactly the same i'm having with the recalled vehicle.
