| Description of the problem | This happened as a new car, only now, after it happened about 5 or 6 times, we came to know this weired and dangerous problem-it loses the power at a stop; at red light, and even when we tried to start to move. When it happened, at first several times, we were thinking maybe i did something, after 5 to 6 times happened to me and to my wife, we just came to understand it is such dangerous problem. Now, it happened again on friday and we went to the mercedes dealer, we came to know more, many happen like this, we are not the first; mercedes no solution, even they tried to find. So far, still no solution at all. The service guy declared that it only stopes at a stop!! They cannot do anything as mercedes still no solution!! Will anyone drive such a weird car it stopes you at stop?? What happen if it stops you on the middle of the high way?? What will happen if somebody hit you from the back?? |
