Failure Date: 09/05/2017

Acceleration/brake issue. On 09/0517 I pulled into my parking lot apartment complex and upon pulling into my parking spot, I attempted to back my 2010 mercedes 2010 Glk350 to align my car. I put the vehicle in reverse, but suddenly the vehicle accelerated backwards and crashed into a parked vehicle. I attempted to apply the brakes, but the vehicle did not stop. Before the accident occurred on my dashboard it displayed "check brake pads". I purchase this car on 08/16/17 and was informed that the vehicle has (2) safety recalls for 'takata" airbags. This unintended acceleration in my 2010 mercedes-benz Glk350 is alarming and concerning.

2 Car Accelerates On Its Own problem of the 2015 Mercedes Benz GLK350

Failure Date: 06/16/2017

On June 16,2017, while I was driving on freeway, I tried to slowed down but it turned out to accelerate suddenly at around 85mph, the steering system was messed up and I lost control of my car , the more I try to brake the faster the car crashed , so it crashed to the right side and rolled over down to the ditch , I called 911 and unfortunately there was no signal, I could not open the door nor window. The smoke came out from inside and the car caught on fire , I could have been burnt to death alive without people passing by , they used a big rock to break the window and pulled me out of the car, two minutes later , the car exploded and burnt to ground. This is a horrible experience , people like me spent so much money on purchasing such an expensive car with expectation to be safer in driving , but when it comes to car accident , there are still so many flaws which could have led to wrongful death , this makes me feel frustrated and I called mb long beach and beverly hills , they just showed indifferent and it's none of their business . I'm now very disappointed and I hope there won't be any victims like this . I was the exception and I hope people driving mb Glk350 could be lucky enough . Mb owes me an explanation and independent investigation should be carried out , maybe a recall if necessary for the safety of consumers .
