The entire driver instrument panel screen went blank, after going blank and coming back on a few times while driving. This is extremely dangerous. Now, the driver cannot see the speed, odo, fuel gauge, indicators or anything at all. I hope you please investigate and initiate a campaign and get this resolved from mercedes.
The drivers exterior left side rearview mirror is overly too large and is mounted approximately 2" to 2. 5" too high . Combined with the CO-located body roof support beam being very large the driver is therefore greatly impacted by the combined reduction in visability in that arc of vision while turning left. I've leased in succession 11 m/b sedans and have never been faced with this problem. I'm 5'8", athletic, well aware of ergonomics, I'm a pe - safety engineer and really annoyed and concerned with this big blind spot area. I've found that for the first time in my driving life I've had to be very careful when turning left particularly in very congested traffic situations due to the large reduction in visibility in that area. Problem starts immediately from a parked or stopped situation, like at a traffic light to then initially start moving particularly when implementing a left hand turn. Vehicle leased on 07/31/2017. Problem has been constant since then.
