Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THE C230 AT ONE YEAR OLD. I HAD E PERIENCED TWO TIMES THATWHILE FREEWAY DRIVING ALL POWER WOULD BE LOST. PULLED OVER AND PUT IN PARK, REV ENGINE A BIT BUT RPM'S WOULD NOT MOVE. FAST FORWARD TO DECEMBER 2008 I SOLD CAR GO MY MOM BECAUSE I HAD A BABY AND CAR WAS TOO SMALL. MY MOM SINCE HAVING CAR HAS LOST POWER WHILE FREEWAY DRIVING A TOTAL OF SIX TIMES NOW. VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NO "CODE" OR "ERROR" FOR MECHANIC WHEN DIAGNOSING, NOR IS BENZ ACKOWLEDING GHE ISSUE.
