WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON FREEWAY, THE WARNING LIGHT FLASHED BEEPED. WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE, IT' STOPPED MOMENTARILY AND RETURNED. IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, RESEARCHED THE WARNING LIGHT AND ATTEMPTED TO CONTINUE DRIVING. SHORTLY AFTER SEVERAL OTHER WARNING LIGHTS CAME ONE RELATING TO TIRES AND BRAKES. PULLED OVER AGAIN, CONTINUED RESEARCH AND RESET FUSES.

CALLED MERCEDES FOR INFORMATION AND THEIR ONLY COMMENT AS THAT THEY WOULD GET BACK TO US WHEN A FIX BECAME AVAILABLE. WE HAVE FRIENDS WHO HAD THEIR VEHICLE FIXED LAST YEAR SO THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A FIX.
