| Description of the problem | I was driving my 2007 mercedes benz c230 at 30mph and it just stopped running it would not move forward or backwards but the rpm would go up. I notice 2 weeks before when i wanted accelerate it wouldn't go any faster then 30mph and after a few seconds it would speed. My concern is that there was not any indication that anything was wrong until the last incident where it just stopped. I had a few people checked and they believe it is the transmission. I went online to check and see if anyone else had experienced the same problems and it is unbelievable that there hasn't been a recall yet. Mercedes benz suppose to be held responsible for it's manufactured mistakes. |
