CLK500 8-cyl

  • 117,000 miles
Driving at 35 mph car began to stall and lose power, car eventually gained power and acceleration, once driving slower the car lost power again and cut completely off after all lights on dash board came on. Selling dealer stated they fixed the problem which was a sensor but the car is now losing power again one month later. The interior and exterior lighting always flicker upon starting the vehicle.
