Fuel gauge not reading correct fuel. After filling tank, fuel gauge reads empty. After approx 20 miles of driving fuel gauge moves to full. Fuel gauge then continues to read inaccurate measurements. I am using the mileage to know when to refuel.

problem #1

Sep 012004

C320

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,500 miles
Consumer went to start the vehicle and discovered that electrical components such as navigation, radio/cd, telephone, voice command, gas gauges, and power windows were not working. Since then the brake lights and turn signals were replaced twice, and will be replaced the third time in less than a year. Took vehicle to a dealer and contacted Mercedes, who said they could replace navigation and the radio/cd which S\were connected by same computer for $3,000. Dealer did not know why this happened, but there was an electrical short. Have not been replaced or repaired.
