The esl/eis failed. Turned car off and after coming back to try and turn it on, it didn't work. Steering wheel was locked and car wouldn't engage with key. After checking with mechanics and checking online, I discovered that it is a frequent issue that happens with no warning whatsoever. Which is quite worrisome to think the Steering wheel could lock at anytime without notice. My car is a 2012 Mercedes c250 coupe.

The steering wheel, has aluminum plating or covering, that was peeling off and cut my finger as I was driving, this happened last year and was still under warranty, and dealer replaced, this is happening again, and the dealer has agreed to replace even though the warranty has expired. I thought you guys should know.
