Description of the problem	Vehicle loses power after a few hours of driving. This problem does not show any error message on the dashboard, and the dealer cannot fix this problem after multiple attempts. Last trip to the dealer which was 2 weeks ago, they insisted that nothing was wrong. Here are examples of how serious the problem is, i was stranded and had to shut the car down for 30 - 45 minutes to let the car reset before continue driving. I was stranded on grapevine while driving back from san francisco to los angeles. The car could barely pull itself up the hill, and freeway 5 was under construction without much service lane that i can pull out. I got lucky and got to pull out before big rig slam into my back. This car will sporadically loses power on surface street which almost landed me into a head on collision while trying to make left turn across oncoming traffic because it will not move forward. Currently, my car has about 8000 miles. I have been contacting mbusa, but there is no sense of urgency on their end. I filmed and took photos while the problem is in session because car computer will not log any. Http://www. Youtube. Com/watch? Feature=player_embedded&v=opqqfzt8zow http://www. Youtube. Com/watch?
