Other Fuel System Problems of Mercedes Benz CLS500

Bought the 2006 cls 500 2 years ago, since that second day I have issues with sbc module, I call mb dealer they told me my car was out of warranty, since the production date was 2004, okay after that I try several other mechanics and nobody have the star tool to fix up, the car is not safe to drive and I continue take the risk couple months until the fuel line starts leak on the pump, this could generate a spark and burn my car, I call again mb dealer and they told me is probably unsafe to start the car. After all this years I parked the car and all my suspension was broke as well, call again the mb dealer they estimated $ 1800 to replace the air shocks, so I buy from arnott the same mb sell and I replace all 4, so the car is up again, next week I decide to sell the vehicle after driving in 3 years 9,000 miles only, try to move the car from the garage, guess what, my transmission go to limp mode because the breaks are not working, so far I decide to write in here to complain why a such beautiful car have so many issues and mb does not care for the old mb. I almost get on accident when my breaks complete frozen to the end !!!.

Several times I have noticed a strong odor of gasoline inside the car after filling up at the gas station. I have noticed several other complaints of the same nature. I noticed a recall # 2008-02001 seems to address this mercedes-benz issue but am not sure it applies to the Cls500. I think it applies to the cls550 and the e-type but it should apply to the Cls500 since the underpinnings of this car is the e-type. Please assist as I would like to have this safety issue addressed by mercedes-benz and judging from the number of complaints feel that mercedes-benz should correct this apparent defect at no charge.

The contact owns a 2006 Mercedes Benz Cls500. The contact stated that fuel was continuously leaking from under the front driver's side seat. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for diagnosis, who stated that the fuel sending unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000. The VIN was unavailable.

From a stopped position there is delay when the accelerator pedal is pressed before the engine actually begins to accelerate. The delay is approximately 2 seconds and presents serious danger when attempting to pull into approaching traffic. I have had a few close calls where I was almost hit by another vehicle because of the significant hesitation with the acceleration. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer a few times, but they said they could not find any problem and no error faults had been logged in the vehicles computer. The problem was intermittent initially but is not consistently occurring. I believe this is a serious safety issue and suspect my case is not unique.
