Description of the problem	I was getting my car detailed. While waiting on another customer had car vacuumed out. After about 30 mins, tried starting the car and the key would turn with out starting the car. Had it towed to mercedes shop. There i was told it was an electrical problem with the steering column. Steering lock has electric fault is what was stated to me for a price of $1700.+ to be repaired. This is the third electrical problem since purchasing the car. I've had the left and right wiring repaired, the left one was still under warranty, the right one wasn't. The wiring was actually burnt.
