On 12/17/2023 at approximately 6:00 am while traveling to a friends house, my car stalled out on me. The engine light came on and the car started hesitating ( sputtering) and then shut off. I tried to start the car and it did with the engine light still on. I called a tow truck and had it towed to Carlton Mercedes. On 12/18/2023 the service advisor contacted me via text to say they will do a diagnostic to find the problem and will be in touch. 5 days later, i was told that the sensors were wet due to standing rain water I encountered and that nothing else was wrong. I picked up the car later that evening. 3weeks later the same exact thing happened. The car started sputtering (hesitating) the engine light came on and it shut off. Although my VIN number was not apart of a recent recall for my make and model, I would like the Safety Department to investigate the issue and have my car added to the recall list. The recall address the issue of loss of power to vehicles of the same make and model as mine. The Mercedes Manufacture will not fix my car under the recall if it hasn't been added to the list. I don't believe the consumer should have to pay simply because the VIN was added to the list even thought the problem exist. Please Help!
2021 mercedes glc. Consumer writes in regards to valve spring failure and stalled engine. *ld the consumer stated shortly after purchasing the vehicle, the valve spring broke causing the engine to fail while driving. The failure mileage was 199. The consumer stated the roadside assistance grossly under estimated it's arrival time. Also, the consumer was in an unfamiliar area but, roadside assistance required an address before sending the tow truck. The consumer had to walk the street to find an address on a home. The consumer felt the dealership attempted to downplay the failure as a simple fix. The manufacturer was notified and offered goodwill assistance which the consumer accepted. *js
