On 04/24/02 my car started stalling out and not starting. It was towed to the nearest dealership.the fuel pump, fuel line, and fuel filter were repaired by 04/25/02.a terrible fuel smell took over the car and I returned it on 04/26/02.it was repaired and returned to me on 4/30/02.it started breaking down again on 05/05/02 and I took it in on 05/06/02.they had it for 10 days (until 05/16/02) and it broke down out of town on 05/25/02 where it remained for 21 days (until 06//15/02).it then broke down on the drive home (05/15/02)and I took it to the shop two days later (05/17/02, dealership closed).all of the problems are directly related to the fuel injectors, fuel pump and the entire system related to this but I have a 2 year old unreliable Mercedes Benz I am now paying to repair.I have contacted Mercedes Benz usa and they have been supportive of the service departments' repairs but I believe I have a car I can't sell, trade in or drive now and I paid $38,000. For it a year ago.please instruct me on the best plan of action at this point.
