Description of the problem	My original complaint was on 08/16/2012 (number 10473170).... Again, the transmission gear indicator went blank. Car went into "limp home" mode. This time removing the key and restarting did not reset the module and i had the repair done. The repair on this was almost $2000! It was the transmission speed sensor which is part of the electrical conductor plate assembly. Prior to this incident, the dealership service rep admitted that they have many repairs with transmission control problems and encouraged me to buy an extended warranty! Online there are many complaints regarding the 2006- 2007 c230's with the same problem. There is clearly a defect going on and i too would like a recall investigation through the nhtsa. Mb needs to admit this is a problem and recall all the vehicles with this defect.
