Received recall notice dated August 2022. Phoned local Mercedes Benz of Chicago on 1520 W. North Avenue and Mercedes Benz of Chicago Service Center on 949 N. Elston Ave. Scheduled a mobile inspection multiple times but they never showed. I was instructed to contact Brake Booster Hotline to have them tow the vehicle but Tarek at this company informed me that I needed to coordinate a date/time with MB dealer to accept the vehicle upon towing. Left a couple of messages with Maya at MB dealer to coordinate appointment for towing company to tow the vehicle but have not received a response. I phoned MB dealer again today and spoke with Jenny who informed me that she would notify the manager, Vince. Jenny informed me that the vehicle cannot be serviced even if it is towed to their dealership. Her experience has been that they have been unable to service these vehicles from this particular recall. This recall issue has continued to go unresolved and the recall notice clearly states that owners are advised not to drive the vehicle until inspection is performed. The vehicle has not been driven for many months and we are currently just waiting for any response from Mercedes Benz.

Reverse pulling out of driveway at slow speed then stopped. On drive position, vehicle jerked forward when gas pedal was applied. This happened twice at same situation about same time.then at the freeway, in stop and go traffic vehicle brakes failed and hit a big-rig truck. No warning light that came on. I pressed foot pedal hard but vehicle did not stop and continued rolling until it rear ended the truck. Luckily our speed was 0-5 mph and no injury to my 2 passengers. Chp assisted us. Vehicle was normal when pulled over to the shoulder. I had it towed to nearest Mercedes Benz dealership. Per service minder, vehicle undergo regular maintenance and is serviced by same dealership.
