Bought the 2006 cls 500 2 years ago, since that second day I have issues with sbc module, I call mb dealer they told me my car was out of warranty, since the production date was 2004, okay after that I try several other mechanics and nobody have the star tool to fix up, the car is not safe to drive and I continue take the risk couple months until the fuel line starts leak on the pump, this could generate a spark and burn my car, I call again mb dealer and they told me is probably unsafe to start the car. After all this years I parked the car and all my suspension was broke as well, call again the mb dealer they estimated $ 1800 to replace the air shocks, so I buy from arnott the same mb sell and I replace all 4, so the car is up again, next week I decide to sell the vehicle after driving in 3 years 9,000 miles only, try to move the car from the garage, guess what, my transmission go to limp mode because the breaks are not working, so far I decide to write in here to complain why a such beautiful car have so many issues and mb does not care for the old mb. I almost get on accident when my breaks complete frozen to the end !!!

The contact owns a 2006 Mercedes Benz Cls500. While driving at any speed, the engine stalls. The vehicle loses all power, including braking and power steering. The vehicle glided down into a curb due to the failure. When shifted into park, the vehicle restarts normally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but they could not repair the failure. Other electrical issues were discovered, but not the cause of the stalling failure. The vehicle also has transmission failure, in whcih the contact believes is the cause of the stalling. The failure mileage was 34,400.

My sprinter 2500 diesel van year 2006 just shuts down without any warning. I am driving along on a main street in savannah and the van just shuts down without any warning. It has happened about 8 times since I bought the van. They keep replacing the alternator but that is obviously not the answer. I need help. My husband is totally wheelchair bound and he is in the van. I really need help!
