| Description of the problem | Vehicle on side street near home... Suddenly chugs, and slows to a crawl will not accelerate... All lights come on dashboard.. Also engine light... Towed to dealership in daytona beach, fl... After 3 wks service dept called to say it was fixed... Wiring harness and a me control unit replaced. 3 wks later on 5/10/16 same incident happened... Luckily it was on side street so was no accident or damage.... This appears to be a recurring problem w/mercedes benz vehicles.... Service dept claims found fix online..? Reset some kind of "pins"..... This car is not safe in my opinion.... |
