Consumer Description

THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER JUSTER FLICKERED A FEW TIMES AND THEN IMMEDIATELY WENT DARK. NO GAS GAUGE, THE SPEEDOMETER OR OTHER IMPORTANT ELEMENTS OF THE CLUSTER ARE NOT WORKING. CONTACTED MERCEDES BENZ, STILL WAITING FOR THEM TO ESCALATE. I AM UNABLE TO PASS EMISSIONS DUE TO THIS. I AM LOCATED IN DEKALB, GEORGIA. PLEASE ASSIST AS THIS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO NO FAULT OF MY OWN. THERE WAS A RECALL/EXTENDED WARRANTY, HOWEVER I WAS UNAWARE OF IT. *TR
