Automatic Transmission Control Module Problems of Mercedes Benz E500

The problem with my vehicle is that with its current tcm( transmission control module) in a 722. 9 transmission, the conductor plate that holds the sensors in place become defective and creates a problem in which the transmission gets stuck in 2nd gear. This causes a major problem driving on road ways that are +45mph because the vehicle cannot drive over 25mph further causing more problems that may actually freeze up the engine causing the car to stop. If the car is stopped and begins to go again, the rmp's can go very high without any power or motion in the vehicle. This has happened to 2 of my personal friends already with the 722. 9 transmission. In particular the conductor plate or valve body was corrupted and caused the vehicle to fail. I am reporting this because the part can fail anytime during operation of the vehicle and is a safety issue to the driver and others around when this may occur. Many other owners (I've read online) with this 722. 9 transmission conductor plate fault is also frustrated by the fact that not only mercedes-benz doesn't allow for a consumer to buy the part but many warranties are voided with this fault. My vehicle (mercedes-benz E500 2004) also is only at 56,000 miles on the speedometer. Considering the mileage, this is a problem that seems to be premature due to the fact that the vehicle has been serviced by a mercedes-benz dealer but has no service for the very commonly faulted part.
