Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Catastrophic sbc system failure. Driving on the turnpike at 65 mph suddenly brakes stopped functioning at all, dashboard turned red with the message sbc failure, depress brake pedal in full, but there was no braking power at all. Coasted, took the nearest exit and could tow the car. I was very lucky. Not a good experience to discover you have no brakes on the highway. Car is in a mechanic shop now, repair will cost over $ 2000. This brake system is a failure, mb discontinued it and went back to the traditional hydraulic system. Mb should had made a recall on this issue as they are aware and it is a failure that can not be predicted, maintenance or age apparently have no influence on the part failing otherwise mb would include the part's replacement as part of a preventive maintenance service. This is a very serious safety issue, and i have seen several people complaining about the same.
