Description of the problem	I was on the 99 freeway driving normal speed and hit brakes to take the denair exit. The car sped up! Like turbo power! The speedometer was at 90 mph as i flew through a red light at top of the ramp! I had to continue down ramp back on freeway. Pushing and pushing on brakes but nothing happened! Next ramp was a bit steeper , so tried again to slow car down! It started to slow and i was able to put car in neutral as it came to stop and i powered the car off. I was approximately 50 miles from home and had to be towed to mercedes of stockton. After their repair department checked my car, they found the brake booster was bad and the turbo pipe hose was torn( due to wear and tear). I had previously (2 months earlier)had my car in for complete check up by the stockton, california dealership and nothing was detected. I feel this a safety issue! I could have been killed! Also i believe this to be manufacture default, the cost to fix is $2,400, and i always bring my car in for regular serving. Thank you
