Consumer Description

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AROUND 65 MILES PER HOUR, THE VEHICLE'S CHECK ENGINE CAME UP AND SAID " INOPERATIVE, PRE SAFE INACTIVE" I FREAKED OUT. I WAS AT HIGHWAYS SPEEDS AND IT WAS INOPERATIVE. I NOTICED THAT THE POWER STEERING WAS AFFECTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE WHEN I ACCELERATED. THE ABS SYSTEM WAS DISABLED, I WAS SCARED EVEN TO BRAKE BECAUSE I KNOW THAT WHEN THE ABS SYSTEM IS DISABLED THE BRAKES CAN LOCK UP AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, INJURIES AND EVEN DEATH. I HAVE NOTICED THAT MANY CLA250 OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
