Description of the problem	When accelerating with my mercedes c300, the car is actually loosing power. The effect is reinforced as the controlling system is blocking the acceleration. Result is that the car is braking suddenly instead of accelerating. It is particularly dangerous when trying to pass another car on the high way as the car will brake. I almost experienced twice an accident on the highway due to this acceleration/bake issue. I brought my car to an independent mercedes repair center. They confirmed to me that mercedes issued a technical bulletin for an electrical cable replacement due to that failure. The issue described on the tb is identical to the experience issue. I contacted my mercedes dealership service department. They informed me there is no recall and don't consider this issue a safety issue. They won't replace the electrical cable unless i paid for the "service". The cable has not been damaged or disconnected. It is simply faulty and mercedes knows the issue as they issued a tb for the vehicle.
