What owners report
The Main Information center they notifies you of 99% of what is going on with the car stopped working completely. Canât tell how Fast the car is moving or the RPM this also included the entire instrument cluster, In addition to that the battery and electric system just quits even Though the connections are tight. The battery Also drains quickly as A Result Even though the alternator works and the battery is new. I had the entire car shut off for no obvious cause. While I was driving. But because The entire dash is dead I canât see if there is something else happening. Looked at fuses and they all ring Okay with a meter. I have read about recalls From mercedes for this see
