Description of the problem	I was on my way to pick up my spouse from the airport one night without warning the vehicle started making a rocking motion and the orange check engine light came on. I pulled over, turned off the engine and exited the vehicle to see what was wrong, i re-entered the vehicle and tried to re-start the vehicle but it would not start. I called mercedes benz and they proceeded to have my car towed to the shop. I waited 4 months for them to assist me in fixing my vehicle since the warranty has expired and i have no extended, they refused to assist me even though they told me that the manifold had broken off and may get into the engine and that i may need a new engine of which i ended up purchasing a low mileage engine. Prior to this i paid $1500. For them to fix 2 leaks on my power steering and as of now my vehicle is leaking oil and making that same loud noise as before they fixed the leaks. I have been very very upset with them, my vehicle has been giving me too much trouble for not having 100 thousand miles. Please help. I call their corporate office and even wrote a letter to them and all they offered me was $2000 towards the purchase of a new vehicle, you may think that a mercedes benz will be able to do better that for their customers. I was lied to by them pertaining to the engine, once i was told that the engine was bad then i was told that it was not bad. I took my car from them and took it to an independent car repairing. *js
