Consumer Description
I was on a busy street and my car failed to move. I got a message stating do not start the car until you contact the dealer. After getting the car to Mercedes Benz of Arrowhead they told me that "the drive motor is leaking coolant and is shorting itself out." This is an electric car - a 2017 Mercedes Benz B250e. After doing some research I found that this is a common issue with this model and that Mercedes knows about it.
