Description of the problem	The mercedes benz c230 with 69,000 miles has after coming to a stop - i would place foot on accelerator and the vehicle would barely get moving would move slowly and would not shift out of low gear. It would barely move. On other occasions the vehicle would not go and the vehicle rpm's would rev beyond normal rpm's. This could happen also at any speed. I feel that this is a dangerous condition and the following parts have been defective and mercedes is controlling the use of these parts because they know that they have an unsafe design and can prove to be hazardous to drivers.. I went to have the vehicle repaired at a local very reputable third party dealer and mercedes benz would not sell the necessary repair parts to any non mercedes dealer. It is my opinion based on reading about this particular vehicle that the transmission speed sensors have a faulty design as well as the transmission valve body and the hydraulic control unit. I would suggest that this be investigated by the highway safety board and provide for a recall of these items and notify all owners of vehicles. Mercedes benz is aware that they build a unreliable and unsafe power train for this vehicle.
