Description of the problem	I have 2008 mercedes s550. The car suddenly started making noise in the front and i called dealership. They told me the brakes are gone and even rotors are damaged. I had no indication all this time i was driving that the car had no brakes as no brakelights came on. Till the time i went to dealership no indication came as sensors are not working. Is it not unsafe to be driving on the highway 60 to 70 miles /hr with no break sensors .
