| Description of the problem | My car suddenly slowed and i lost power while driving on 95 at approximately 20-30 mph in slow heavy traffic to work this morning. I could hardly accelerate and only slowly... I had messages that said "pre-safe functions inoperative. See operator's manual", and the esc light came on. Drivers behind me started passing me despite me already going slowly due to all the traffic--i had no where to pull over and crawled into the parking ramp at work. I could have been rear-ended this morning. I have no idea what will happen when i restart the car today. This needs to be taken care of by mercedes--do a recall and fix this issue! |
