I put my key into the ignition and it would not start. I had a tow truck to come and get my vehicle and they charged the vehicle and would not go into neutral or drive. I know that I probably need a new battery but this was scary.

Takata recall. I have been waiting patiently since February 2016, and every 6 months Mercedes Benz keeps delaying the remedy to this potentially fatal issue. My wife and toddler ride in this vehicle and I'm always in fear the airbag can deploy causing serious injury or death. How much longer am I supposed to wait for the parts to be ready while Mercedes Benz is making record profits?
