2006 Mercedes benz E350 Service Brakes Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1337689
Internal NHTSA #	10928790
Manufacurer	Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
Brand	MERCEDES BENZ
Model	E350
Model Year	2006
File date	30/11/16
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I experienced immediate brake failure while driving with no advanced warning. Received red light warning messaging stating reduced braking ability and to visit workshop. Immediately stepped fully on brake pedal with minimal to no response. Car eventually slowed down to a stop. A significant collision was avoided because i was driving around 15 mph on a residential side-street with no other traffic at the time. Had i been traveling on a major road at 35-40mph with moderate traffic i would have been unable to avoid a serious collision. Mercedes benz has recognized this braking issue and ordered an extended 10 year warranty with unlimited miles on the hydraulic sbc system, but i was told my 2006 vehicle was "out of warranty" by the dealership and would need to pay $2275 for repairing the hydraulic sbc. This problem is an immediate safety concern given the acute failure of the braking system and the high likelihood of a serious accident.
