Issue ID	978398
Internal NHTSA #	10510439
Manufacurer	Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC.
Brand	MERCEDES BENZ
Model	ML500
Model Year	2006
File date	01/04/11
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle will not accelerate after a stop at a light or after taking a highway from a ramp, the engine will rev up but the vehicle will not change gears, after a pull over to the shoulder of the road shutting off the engine and restarting it will run normal. This happened for about 20-30 times until yesterday i get out of work pulled out of the parking lot noticed the vehicle was in limp mode stuck in 2nd and will not change gears. I did some research and found out that the cause was from the valve body of the transmission or the conductor plate and only the dealer is aloud to repair it ???. And will cost around $2500 . I read that lots of people are having problem with this 722. 9 7 speed transmission and mbusa is not issuing a recall. Nhtsa should look into this and force mbusa to recall all defective vehicles and replace the valve body at no cost because its a safety issue.
