Description of the problem	C300 failed to start. The ignition seem to work correctly. The engine would start and cut off immediately. After several tries, finally the car started and i was able to drive it to the dealer. The dealer was able to replicate the issue. The service manager said it was probably computer and a full reset will fix the issue. I got the car back a week later. While driving back home, i stopped to get gas. I turned of the car and after pumping the gas, it refused to start again. I had to call the road side assistance. The car is back at the dealer now for 7 weeks.
