I was driving my car on [XXX] , 2024, on the [XXX] highway when the car suddenly started to display many errors on the dashboard/cluster. Then, while moving, the gas pedal suddenly stopped working, and at the same time, all the electrical buttons and lights started flashing. The shift didn’t work, and the gas pedal didn’t respond, which put me in danger in the middle of the highway. Luckily, no one hit my car, and I was able to pull to the side of [XXX] . I then called Mercedes Me from the car and had it towed to the dealership. Here are some of the warning lights that came on the cluster/dashboard, which put me in a very dangerous situation in the middle of the highway. It’s also worth mentioning that for the same issue, the car stayed in the dealership service for 10 days, and they returned it to me saying no issue was found. After 1-2 days of getting the car back, I faced the above situation. Warning lights/issues: Inoperative Active brake assist functions limited Active blind spot inoperative Active lane keeping assist inoperative Motor sign on dashboard RBS warning on dashboard Active distance assist inoperative 4 matic currently unavailable Malfunction in red and yellow color flashing Traffic sign assist inoperative All button lights were flashing Shift is not operative Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated, because it is a major safety concern. Thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
