Traveling on a busy interstate, traffic limited to one lane because of construction. Traffic stopped, instructed by law enforcement to turn off vehicle to wait. Shortly after, traffic started moving but our vehicle would not start. After stopping traffic for about 15 minutes the vehicle finally started. Incident repeated at a gas station, stopped for gas, filled up, when complete would not start, once again after 15 minute wait it started. Dealer unable to get the problem to repeat. Onboard diagnostic computers didn't record the fault. Mercedes Benz corporate will not do anything to assist getting the issue fixed until repeated by the dealer. Researched online and found video of someone else with exact problem and solution. Many comments of others with same issue. We have owned this vehicle for about 500 of its 10000 miles.

THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT VERY QUICKLY AT THE SHOP WHERE THEY WERE GOING TO HOOK UP A TOW BAR ON THIS NEW RV. (THEY HAD FULLY PREPARED THE TOW VEHICLE AND THIS WAS TO BE THE FINAL STEP) IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN THE INCIDENT BEGAN TO OCCUR BUT THE FIRE MOST LIKELY STARTED AS THE RV WAS BEING DRIVEN FROM OUR HOME IN MEADOW VISTA CA TO ONE STOP TRUCK SHOP IN SACRAMENTO CA. THE FIRE STARTED A FEW MINUTES AFTER THE RV WAS PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT AND MY SON HAD LEFT THE SCENE. A POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROPANE AND DIESEL FUEL EXPLOSION WAS AVOIDED BY THE QUICK AND DECISIVE ACTIONS OF THE OWNERS OF ONE STOP TRUCK...
