 Description of the problemAugust 8, 2019 while parking my car in a gas station and going at a low rate of speed i experienced a sudden acceleration of my vehicle. I was unable to stop the car and as a result hit the side of a building. The car was towed and repaired. Mercedes corporate was notified and they sent a mechanic to check the car. On august 21, 2019 i was informed that mercedes found no evidence of a malfunction. I was also informed that i could not have the car evaluated by a third party. Around october of 2019 i had my vehicle returned to me from the collision center. On october 24, 2019, again while i was parking on my street at a low speed the vehicle accelerated, this time i was able to put it in neutral, apply the brakes and avoid an accident. Again, i called mercedes and the car was then taken to the dealership. Once at the dealership i was told that they could not look at the car until mercedes corporate gave them the ok. I waited three weeks and was then told the car had no problems. When i picked up the car i did ask if the dealership checked the car and i was told no. Mercedes sent someone to look at the vehicle. When i got home i opened the hood and found it full of dried leaves. I garage my car but it looked like the car sat on the lot for three weeks in the weather. I am still driving this vehicle and waiting for it to happen again. I would hate to sell it and have someone have a serous accident. I also tried to have a local mechanic check the vehicle but they did not want to get involved with the issue.
