NHTSA Complaint #10761483 — 2014 MERCEDES-BENZ C250

LEASED OUR MERCEDES AND SHORTLY AFTERWARDS WE STARTED EXPERIENCING HESITATION, LAGGING AND EVEN STALLING OF THE VEHICLE AS WE TRIED TO ACCELERATE. TWICE THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED AS WE PULLED INTO TRAFFIC, NARROWLY ESCAPING POSSIBLE INJURY AND DAMAGING SEVERAL CARS. HESITATION HAS OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING, (PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR AND THE ENGINE DOES NOT RESPOND BY EVIDENCE OF NO RPM INCREASE). AGAIN, THIS HAS OCCURED NUMEROUS TIMES. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE BACK TO MERCEDES FOUR TIMES, FOR A TOTAL OF 39 DAYS!!!! AND STILL TO THIS DAY, THE VEHICLE STILL HAS THE ISSUE, WHILE MERCEDES CLAIMS THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE GIVEN US EVERY EXCUSE IN THE BOOK OF WHY NO PROBLEM EXISTS, EVEN AFTER THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE CAR HAS A 6 SECOND DELAY WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!! TWO DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS HAVE DROVE THE VEHICLE AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME HESITATION PROBLEM. THE CAR IN OUR EYES IS A HAZARD TO THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. WE ARE PAYING FOR A CAR THAT IS DANGEROUS AND HAS THE HIGH PROBABILITY OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH CATASTROPHIC RESULTS...........
