NHTSA Complaint #10653164 — 2013 MERCEDES-BENZ C250

CONSTANT ISSUES WITH VEHICLE ACCELERATION. FOR EXAMPLE WHEN TRY TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP THE CAR HESITATES FOR SEVERAL SECONDS EVEN WITH SIGNIFICANT PRESSURE ON GAS PEDAL THEN SUDDENLY ACCELERATES IN A VERY JERKY FASHION. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN CROSSING MULTIPLE TRAFFIC LANES. HAVE ALSO HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS WHEN CAR IS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AND NEED TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY, THE CAR HESITATES FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AND THEN JERKS INTO GEAR AND SPEEDS UP. I DON'T DRIVE MY CAR THAT MUCH BECAUSE I WORK FROM HOME AND TAKE CABS ON WEEKENDS WHEN GOING OUT BUT HAD A FRIEND DRIVE THE CAR WITH ME TO SEE WHAT THEY THOUGHT AND THEY SAID THEY DEFINITELY NOTICED THE ISSUE. I AM TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THEY WILL MAKE REPAIRS BUT I HAVE A FEELING LIKE OTHERS WHO HAVE SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT I WILL BE TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. I JUST HAPPENED ACROSS THIS WEBSITE AND THOUGHT I WOULD SEE IF THE PROBLEM WAS JUST MY CAR BUT 11 OF 13 COMPLAINTS ARE THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS MINE. WHY HASN'T THE NTSB ISSUED A RECALL? DOES SOMEONE OR A BUNCH OR PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE FIRST?? *TR
