File date	03/12/16
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle is only 3 weeks old. A faulty engine wire harness caused the vehicle to cease operating in traffic and put my family in a potentially life threatening situation. Mercedes did not replace but only "repaired" the wire, which we were told was not assembled correctly and was pinched in a bracket and subsequently chafed, which can potentially still cause a life threatening engine malfunction during normal operation. Mercedes is not willing to replace the engine harness wire, nor replace the vehicle. I fear for the safety of my family.
