general problems of the 2004 Mercedes Benz CL500

Takata recall I bought my 04 Cl500 benz in April of 2015, after a few month I noticed the cluster flickering then soon after the back light went out but gages still working then today while driving in the city a poof of smoke hit me in the face I figured something was on fire so I pulled over opened all my doors and hood but no flames just smoke when smoke stopped I looked toward where the smoke was coming from witch was the cluster now im stuck with a horrble smell and no gages.

I was driving to the store going about 45mph and all the sudden my instrument cluster completely went out and this is my daily driver so now im driving with no fuel level speed or how hot my engine is getting I called mercedes and they said my VIN was not in the recall but it should not matter!! it has the same problem as the other ones. But they refuse to fix a safe maulfunction.

While I was driving hwy 1 to monterey CA. Cluster dash lights blacked out. Now don't know how fast I'm going down the road and can see information from it.
