I have taken my vehicle in for repeated repair: 1-7-02 to 1-14-02, 2-14-01 to 2-19-02, 3-4-02 to 3-7-02, 5-2-02 to 5-3-02, 5-21-02 to 5-28-02, and the dealer has not fixed the problem with the car shutting off on me. There is an electrical problem, because the car wuill shut off on the highway, in traffic, going up a hill, then the dashboard will light up, mentioning system failure. I have used the sos button in my care repeatedly to get help, but that is still not good enough. I have also contacted Mercedes Benz usa, and Mercedes in stuttgart germany. I have put them on notice to purchase the car back from me, and they have a week and a half left to respond. I try to not to drivr the car a lot, which defeats the purpose of purchasing a new vehicle, but frankly, I am scared that something might happen, because it has shut off on me on I75 going 60 plus miles an hour. It is certainly a safety hazard.
