Description of the problem	This has actually happened 2x already-i was stationary at a light and when i went to accelerate the car stalled and would not start back up. There where many cars behind me and my car would not move. I turned car off and then it finally restarted and i was able to pull over on the side of the road . I was terrified. The second time the car was actually moving and then just died in the middle of the intersection. I took it to the dealer both times and since nothing came up on my dash they could not find out what was wrong. I am terrified this will happen again without a good outcome next time. I feel my car is unsafe to drive. I have tried talking to mbusa and told them what happened they did nothing. I wrote a letter they did nothing. I told hoehn mercedes i called the dealership who sold me the car nothing. 1st time car was stationary on city street, 2nd time in motion on a highway. Going straight. 2nd mechanic said he had heard of that happening before, random incident starter? I am the origional owner-paid $60,000 for this car i cannot even get $5,000 for it.
