Regarding: ODI id number 10130895 I had similar issues with the vehicle and Mercedes Benz could not replicate the problem and blamed it on me for driving with two feet. I don't drive with two feet and I refused to accept the car without anything being diagnosed and repaired. The next day they called and had a code for a faulty crank sensor which they replaced. I haven't noticed any problems since then but it was very unnerving to know my wife was driving this vehicle (ML500 '06) while these problems could happen. Someone should recall this immediately.
