Transmission Not Go Into Gear Problems of Mercedes Benz E350

When I try to put the vehicle in park the car is stuck in drive or reverse. If the car is in reverse or if the vehicle is in drive and you use the gear selector to put the vehicle in park or change and gear the vehicle does not change the gear. I bought this vehicle certified preowned from mercedes-benz dealership in July 2019 the vehicle has less than 4000 miles on it since I bought it certified and this issue has occurred. This is a safety issue which could have injury and or death. The mercedes-benz dealer is stating there was a fault code with the shifter attached to the steering wheel and need to replace the entire module due to an electrical fault. The dealership is refusing to honor disrepair under a safety maintenance from the manufacture. I have escalated this matter to mercedes-benz executive relations. This issue has been ongoing for the past several months since last year.

There is a serious safety issue with 2006 mercedes-benz e class (mbec) because of a manufacturer's and/or design defect which causes this vehicle to not go into proper gear and/or stall suddenly putting the public at risk. I barely escaped being smashed into by oncoming traffic while making a routine left hand turn into a gas station because my mbec was stuck in gear and did not accelerate as it was manufactured and designed to do but rather sputtered at less than 5 miles per hour (mph). The only reason I was not t-boned and likely seriously injured along with other people was because the other drivers swerved into oncoming traffic causing those drivers to also swerve. Miraculously no one was injured, this time. Also, the reason why I was turning into the gas station was because I was forced to get off the highway because my mbec would not change gear after I got on the highway and was approaching red-lining at and it seemed like the engine might blow. The tiptronic also failed during this malfunction. I had the authorized mb dealer that I have used since I purchased my mbec pickup my vehicle to look into this issue and my advisor told me I needed a new balance shaft because the one in my vehicle had prematurely worn (even though I have always stringently followed my mb advisor's suggestions) and it would cost roughly $6,500. S/he also said this occurs in roughly 15-20% of '06 mbec. But mb would not fix this safety defect unless I paid. Worse yet, my advisor never made me aware of this serious safety issue even though s/he previously knew or should have known and as a result put the public at risk by not enabling me to resolve this serious safety issue with my model year vehicle until the occurrence of a near catastrophe. There should be a safety recall now that this safety defect has come to light and unless there is, the public will remain at serious risk.

Cars will not shift. It wont go pass 3rd gear and almost crashed. Brought car to dealer and per dealer, car is known to have the problem but not recall. Had to pay over $4000 to get the car fixed.

When accelerating from a stop light, the car would not shift gears automatically. The car seems to be stuck in 1st gear or neutral as I could not get past 20mph without maxing out my rpm's. I had to drive 3 miles going 20mph to get somewhere so I could get towed. After towed to the dealership, they could not replicate the situation. This has happened twice within a week's time. This is a mercedes 2007 E350. I have seen other posts about this exact same thing with no solution. The dealership said to pull over and restart the car. What!!! what kind of fix is that? I do that to my home pc. . . I shouldn't have to do that for my car! I bought this car less than 30 days ago. . . And the dealership doesn't seem to want any part of it. I haven't even made the first payment or recieved my permanent tags yet.
