 Description of the problemI have experienced recurrent but intermittent issues with the transmission/acceleration of my mercedes glc 300 2017. Today, after i went up and then downhill, the car slowed dramatically on its own. When i pushed the gas pedal to the floor, the car did not respond immediately. After several seconds, the car started to accelerate. In the meantime, i was worried i would be rear-ended by traffic behind me. I have had similar problems in this same spot (which i drive nearly daily) in the past, suggesting going over the hill has something to do with it (e. G., once, in this spot, when my daughter was in the car with me, the car jerked so strongly when it started to go that my daughter though we were indeed rear ended). Although this spot most often reveals the problem, the issue has happened on flat areas as well. For instance, pulling out of a shopping center, i similarly found the accelerator non responsive. Driving my daughter to tennis one day, the car repeatedly jerked dramatically when shifting, primarily in 2nd and 3rd. Generally, the issues seem to happen most frequently in these gears. Although the transmission seems to consistently take longer to shift in these gears, the more dramatic problems do not happen daily, making it hard to trouble shoot (when i took it to my dealer, they ran their computer tests, and could not detect any problems). I am worried, though, that i will eventually be rear ended or otherwise have this problem lead to an accident. I have seen some other reports of this issue in online forums, and hope nhtsa can check into or at least track it.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
