 Description of the problemThis problem first started 2 days after purchase of this brand new 2014 mercedes c class. Upon starting the vehicle the emergency brake indicator light comes on and alarm starts dinging even though the emergency brake has never been applied. The only way to make it stop is to pull the emergency brake release lever. This has occurred during initial start-up and while driving. The problem was reported to the dealership and their technicians response is " the c class does that". After taking the vehicle back to the dealer the technicians said since they couldn't recreate the problem, nothing must be wrong. Once i drove 30 miles to the dealership with the emergency brake light on and alarm dinging so they could witness it. The manager and technician met me in the garage and had me pull the lever; the pedal actually moved by about an inch. The manager and tech practically accused me of partially applying the brake (which i told them i have never pulled since owning the car). I told them this makes the situation even more serious because the brake may actually auto-apply while driving. Still, no concern about safety, or resolving the problem. Their resolution was for me to bring the vehicle in to trade for a used 2013 or used 2014 or pay to move into the e class which they say doesn't have this problem.
