Electronic Stability Control problem

While driving on the highway or on any other street my Mercedes Benz C230 engages the left front brake by itself causing the car to veer sharply to the left for about 2 seconds. Multiple occasions of this very dangerous situation. Dealer states that the issue is a faulty yaw rate sensor and charges over $1,000 to repair but this should be a recall due to the potential for this type of malfunction to seriously injure someone or even worse. After researching this event in more detail, I understand that this is a occurence with mb occuring in serval vehichles over the years. This must be recall em.
