Description of the problem	This is a follow-up to my 10/1/18 report to nhtsa: 2/21/19 update: i received a letter from mb dated 2/13/19 stating that after a thorough investigation of this matter, "the vehicle's active brake system (aba) is operating as designed". On 11/12/18 i traded this car in for another vehicle (not mb). I took the responsible action to protect myself and my passengers since mb was not capable of delivering a cause and subsequent repair of their own vehicle's serious defect. The letter went on to say "that there is no basis for any claim against mbusa". They are more concerned with litigation than manufacturing and servicing a vehicle that is safe for their customers. I was fully expecting that mb would want to get this vehicle off the road and at the very least remove the portion of the software that caused this incident. Instead they sent me the attached letter that somehow made the issue mine by saying that aba "is an assist system that is intended to aid but not replace the driver". At no time was i in control of the vehicle when it decided to do a 4 wheel lockup. For these reasons i will never return to the brand. Needless to say i am deeply disappointed with a brand that i believed to be a premium vehicle from a manufacturer that took driver safety seriously. I will reproduce this email in the event that some 3rd party wants documentation that i have warned mbusa of their product defect and that they have done nothing to protect or warn the public about this issue. As i have stated in the past, this is a known problem and not an isolated anomaly. You are acting recklessly in not taking appropriate action.
