Car immediately stalled in the middle of the interstate. Driving vehicle and it began to stall. Was not able to even pull to side of the road. Was later able to jump start vehicle, however still had issues with stalling and no acceleration. Have been informed it is a "harness wiring issue".

I have a 1995 SL500 Mercedes Benz and the wires going to the brake switch caught fire, if I had not had a fire extinguisher the hole car might have caught fire also I was no going fast when the fumes started choking me and my eyes burned. I could have killed my self or someone on the road.
