Unknown Or Other problem #1

A very small amount of liquid from a cup sitting in the cup holder spilled into the gearbox and the car began to sputter and shake, wouldn't shift or accelerate. I had to pull over and call for the car to be towed to the nearest mb dealer. The car would not function at all. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where over $600. 00 was spent to get a brand new gearbox installed for the car to be functional again. The service advisor said all it took was "less than a teaspoon of liquid" to drop into that area to cause the car to fail and it was very common--that he'd seen it a lot on these cars.

Unknown Or Other problem #2

The consumer can not see the lcd informational displays on the dashboard when the consumer wears polarized sunglasses, the instrument panel lcd's (which are polarized) have their axis of polarization such that they cannot be seen when wearing polarized sunglasses. Nlm.
