Brakes Failed Problems of Mercedes Benz C250

Turning into a parking space today, my car brakes failed. I could not stop my vehicle even when I pressed down completely on the pedal. I ended up jumping the parking space "curb/stopper" and hit a light post. I have never experienced this prior but it was extremely frightening. I have had other issues with the car - the radio where works intermittently and the volume sporadically increases and decreases with no resolution even after diagnostics and software updates per the dealer. This, however, was an issue that could have had worse consequences. After the cosmetic damage is fixed, I plan to have mercedes run diagnostics on the brake system.

Brake failure. Driving vehicle on highway with a 75 mph speed limit. When I attempted to brake vehicle, I found I did not have any power brakes. Brake pedal was hard. Pressing the brake pedal as hard as I could did not do anything to slow down my vehicle. I did not have any ability to slow down vehicle. To avoid a collision, I put the vehicle in neutral, and down shifted gears. No alarms, or visual indicators came on to indicate a problem existed. Car towed to the Mercedes Benz authorized dealership I have always had my car serviced at. Brake box sitting behind the motor had broke. No sensirs or fault us associated with the brake box. Visual check of the brake box is. It on any maintenance checklist.
