| Description of the problem | In february 2019 the c300 engine light came on, took the vehicle to the dealer and they said it was a bad catalytic convertor, and the dealer took three days to repair it. Three weeks later in march 2019, while driving 25 miles per hour straight on a residential street the car shut off without a sound, all the lights on the instrument cluster lit up, and the car coasted to a stop on the side of the road. I trie to restart the car, the starter made noise but the engine would not turn over. I called roadside assistance and did the three time lock and unlock routine, and the car would not start. After towing the car back to the same dealer, they told me the car was showing no codes, the issue could not be replicated and the car should be fine to drive again! I |
