2 Car Will Not Start problem

Failure Date: 05/11/2012

I attempted to start the car and it would not crank. I called mercedes service and they sent service to jumpstart the car. The car finally started. As I began to drive, a warning light stating "power steering malfunction - check owners manual" came on. With considerable difficult, I avoided the curb in the parking lot and managed to get the car to a parking space. The "power steering malfunction" indicator would not come off even after turning the car off and on again. The car became undrivable.
