 Description of the problemWe are having some serious issues with our mercedes benz ml350, 2007. The safety hazard concerns us deeply. Based upon our research, we have discovered that this is a common problem. Others are facing the same issues with this vehicle. This problem occurs when you least expect it. It will be driving fine and then all of a sudden, it will lose all power in the traffic where you are totally helpless and unable to pull over. This is very dangerous because the vehicle slows down unexpectedly which can cause a major accident. Example: when you are crossing a highway; you think the vehicle will drive normal. But then all of a sudden it drags. Therefore, you will have to crawl. Each time we have to restart the vehicle. It appears that the vehicle resets itself when the engine is turned off. Then the vehicle proceeds as normal. Another example: it won't shift from second gear to third, and you can only crawl 10-40 mph. It refuses to shift any more. Other drivers around us on the road become extremely impatient and start screaming and using violent gestures. Another time, i was coming off a highway merging to the access road. The vehicle slowed down. I pressed on the gas, the engine revved up but the car slowed down to about 35mph and a 18 wheeler behind us almost hit us by swerving to avoid a major accident. I had to crawl on the access road with fast moving traffic. There are other reports with the 2007 mercedes benz ml350 power train (transmission) to have these issues. The reports i have read indicated that the mercedes benz corporation is not willing to own up to the fact that this vehicle is very dangerous and can cause serious implications. I plead for your help to please look into this matter so that others with the same problem with this car can be spared. We are appealing for your help.
