MBUX system would not turn on. Warnings of Blind Spot in operatable, Parktronic not operatable. Was not able to access any features through MBUX. Climate Control, Operation of Covertable Top, Maps, all options run through MBUX. It was a safety issue because the battery light comes on, after being on charge, and without access to MBUX, you do not know if the car will stall on the freeway, or at a stop light. Safety issues also around front lift without cameras access. The vehicle was inspected at the Mercedes Benz Dealer and they fixed it, but after a day, the battery still isn't charging after numerous attempts and recalls on 12v rewiring. Since I have bough the vehicle, many warning lights have always come on, been ficed and then come back on.

When driven on the highway, speed drops abruptly down (65 mph to 40 mph) stuck on 4 or 3rd gear in this automatic 9 speed transmission and gear won't shift up causing engine rpm rise over 3000 & gas pedal won't have effect even it was pushed down to floor all the way. Almost rear ended in multiple occasion & it is extremely dangerous to change lane to get off to safety as car does not respond to throtle up or gas pedal to speed up. Dealer was not able to duplicate issue in two service visit & this already happened third time in a raw and car is back in dealership for diagnostic. No warning nor malfunction light at all when this happen

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
