Description of the problem	Blue tec system for diesel fuel emissions in my 2014 mercedes benz glk250 model is inherently flawed with repeated failures that cause the car to "go limp" (unable to start after 10 or less starts when there is a failure in the blue tec system.) as a result, the car is not only unreliable, it is unsafe should the car "go limp" when needed for emergency or on a road trip or unable to drive out of an unsafe area, etc., since only a mercedes benz dealer can re-set the system after repairs so that the car will start again. To date (5/16/19) my 2014 glk250 has 28,388 miles and has been returned to the dealer 6 times (first time, dec. 6, 2014 and 5 more times since) due to the electronic warning message "10 remaining starts/add blue" which has always turned out to be an electronic failure in the blue tec system. The message may appear when the car is parked and the ignition is turned on or while driving. Sometimes, the check engine light may first appear followed by the "remaining starts" message a few days later. There is no logic or set sequence. And when it appears, there is no alternative but to immediately go to the dealer for repairs and to re-set the computer so the count down stops and the car can be started. The reason this is not a widely known problem is that there were not many glk 250 blue tec cars sold in the u. S. And mercedes benz no longer builds this model and has stopped offering diesel passenger cars in the u. S. For more information on complaints, see link.: https://mbworld.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
