On friday 7/17/2020 aroundnoon, I wasdriving mymb glb that was bought lessthan90 days ago when suddenly the dashboard went blank. I could not see speed, gas gages or any other safety features that would be on the dash. I was basically blinded. I called mercedes 911 after stopping the car. We tried to factory reset the computer on advice from tech via the phone. This had no impact on the screen. The mb rep did not offer roadside assist. I had to drive over 25 miles with no dashboard to gage my speed, gas or safety lights. I had no choice as no help was coming to get me. This defect makes this car extremely hazardous and should have been addressed prior to purchase.the federal safety agency campaign id: 20v246000 recall date: 2020-05-01summarymercedes-benz USA, llc.
