| Description of the problem | Adblue heater/senor for the emission control on the 2011 mercedes-benz e350 bluetec fail after 80,000 miles the problem with the system is that it starts a count down which is displayed on the dash to how many starts are left before the car completely shuts down and will not start because of a heater/senor. So here i am held captive by the number of starts i have left to get the car to a dealership to correct the problem. My problem with this is a $50,000. 00 plus car shouldn't be shutting down for a emission control system. |
