- Long Island City, NY, USA

Dec 2- filled car with gas, check engine light illuminated and then three more errors displayed on the dash. See list below. Errors displayed on dash-€¦ 1-INOPERATIVE -- SEE OPERATOR-€™S MANUAL (Shows ABS and skid icons) 2-COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS INOPERATIVE 3-ABS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE -€" SEE OWNER-€™S MANUAL 4-CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON Later that same day, Dec 2, we started the car but could not get it into Reverse. We shut the car off, started it again, and were able to shift into reverse and proceed. Dec 3rd- we attempted to remove and reapply the gas cap to see if engine light would go off and error messages would resolve. It did not. We did not drive the car that day. Dec 4 and Dec 5th- all above error warnings display all day. Dec 6th- We scheduled a service appt at Mercedes in Sarasota, FL for the 1st avail appt Dec 10th. We were told in writing the car could be driven until the appt and no additional issues should arise. Dec 7th- new error code appears-€¦ 5-REVERSING NOT POSSIBLE - SERVICE REQUIRED. This is when the car put our lives at risk. While driving, the car shifted itself into Nuetral. We were unable to get the car into gear as it continued to roll. Having no control of acceleration, we guided the car to the right to allow traffic to pass. We put the car in park, shut down the vehicle, wait 15 minutes, and restart. We were then able to drive forward, but WHILE MOVING, -€œREVERSING NOT POSSIBLE-€ reappeared, the car shifted itself into neutral again. We were unable to shift to DRIVE. We shut the car car down again, started it, shifted to drive, but it went into DRIVE 2 only. We drove in 2nd gear until we were safe off the road and home. We towed the car (12/7 evening) to Mercedes in Sarasota FL. Dec 8th: Service dept finds the two front wheel speed sensors failed and caused a chain reaction sequence of events. They referred to the problem as -€˜minor-€™. This is a serious design flaw. We are lucky not to have been hurt or killed

Sunroof came off the rails and would not close. Afraid it could have flown off

- Moss Point, MS, USA

Faulty Panoramic Sunroof. I took the car to the dealer service to have the sunroof checked since it won't close all the way that the guide rails jammed and faulty. It is too expensive to get it fixed after taking to Mercedes. I haven't owned the vehicle very long and only used the sunroof maybe once or twice and it stopped working. This should be a recall and I shouldn't have to pay to fix it. I am worried that it might come off while driving, for now it is sealed with wrap.

My car puts itself into neutral while driving and while stopped. This has happened 4 times now. The dealer claims they aren-€™t familiar with this issue. My safety and the safety of others driving around me are in danger. Today, I was changing lanes on the feeder road, and my car locked up into neutral and wouldn-€™t let me drive it. The error message says -€œDo not shift gears. Visit dealer-€. This car has been in no accidents and hasn-€™t had any work done other than routine work.

Start off when the message "do not shift" pops up while driving

- Tallahassee, FL, USA

In the past three days, I experienced 4 times while driving and/or waiting for the red light, the car just changed to N(neutral) from D by itself. And I couldn-€™t manually switch back. I had to turn off then started the car again, then I was able to drive the car. It was very scary for me because twice I was in front of the red light and while it turned green my car couldn-€™t move and the car behind me almost hit my car. I googled online and found that there-€™s a recall for 2019 MB GLA for similar problems. I wonder why they don-€™t provide recalls for the same model that made in different years. These two days from the internet I read a lot of people-€™s posts that stating they had the same experiences. So for sure it definitely is not an isolated case. I was in shock when this happened so I didn-€™t thought about to take a picture of the dashboard screen because it showed some warnings. But I don-€™t remember what it was.

On an initial start of drive, as soon as the eco system kicks in. When L release my foot from the brake, and before L even touch the gas the car instantly cuts out with this warning'service required do not shift gears visit dealer' and automobile goes into 'N'. I then proceed to put the car in 'd' and can then continue, but the eco system is no longer available for the duration of that drive. The next day when L got in my car L turn the eco capability off and didn't experience the malfunction. This occurred on a city street twice between 7 Nov 2020, and again on the 14th both after L took it in for diagnostic and was told they couldn't find anything. No something is wrong!!!please help!

It came back by itself. Suddenly the car slammed in park again on 295-South, there were cars almost recking trying to avoid hitting us. Now I am in tears, because I did not know what to do.

Driving 70 mph on highway, 12K miles on my 2016 car and the sunroof exploded out the top of my car. Sounded like a shotgun blast, shreds of glass everywhere. No warnings, sounds, any idea about to occur.
