2007 Mercedes benz R320 Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	934537
Internal NHTSA #	10469682
Manufacurer	MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC.

Model Year	2007
File date	06/08/12
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Engine 'died' (vehicle lost all power) while traveling at highway speed. I had to pull vehicle over on side of the road with no power assistance steering or braking. Brough it to the dealer for service 8/8/12, stalled two more times while enroute. I was told that it is a failed camshaft sensor. I looked up all safety recalls on vehicle, and found one for the crankshaft sensor in 2008. I was told that my failed camshaft sensor is different and is not covered by the manufacturer, even though it produces the same symptom/result as a failed crankshaft sensor. Both items perform simarlarly in that they assure correct engine timing, disabling the engine if a failure is detected in either part! I submit that this is a safety issue and should at least be covered by the manufacturer!
