Front Air Bag Sensor Control Problems of Mercedes Benz ML350

Less than a year after I bought the car, during month of April 2014, different error messages started to appear on dash including abs (brake system), srs (air bags), and steering wheel vibrating, hard to turn wheel, a few tail/parking lights not working. At shop, they said sensors were bad, and due to my extended warranty they replaced the entire power steering system ($272) but said to repair the air bags would cost $800. A different mechanic said under $100 to fix air bag sensors. Now, August 2014, trunk lift motors are konking out and the lock is not latching, pops open while driving, have to pull over to shut before everything falls out. Also other motors for windows and sunroof work intermittenly. When turning left the parking brake sensor light pops up on dash. . . . Also out of the blue one day the whole gps system was blank, totally wiped of all info destinations, history etc from past year, only a map shows now.

2004 ml 350 had srs and airbag lights appear on dash that did not go out during vehicle operation. Owner's manual stated this could result in no airbag deployment during an accident, or unexpected deployment of airbags. I went to the dealership and was told a seat recognition sensor was required for $752. This is a major safety issue and is a failure of a component that should not fail, and place vehicle occupants at risk, after only 3 1/2 years of operation. Manufacturer should be required to recall these vehicles and test and replace the sensors/modules or related parts.
