2012 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450 Complaints

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED IN THE LEFT LANE OF A DIVIDED HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT NOTICE LOST ENGINE POWER AND POWER STEERING. THE WEATHER CONDITION WAS LIGHT RAIN AND THE ROAD WAS WET. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY AND RESTART THE ENGINE BUT IT DIED WITHIN TWO TO THREE SECONDS. I THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE SEVERAL MORE TIMES AND WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN A RUNNING ENGINE AFTER ABOUT 5 RESTART CYCLES. THE ENGINE LOSS OF POWER HAS BEEN TRACED BACK BY A MERCEDES REPAIR CENTER TO A MALFUNCTION OF THE ELECTRICAL WIRING HARNESS CONNECTED TO THE FUEL PUMP IN THE GAS TANK. THIS INCIDENT DEMONSTRATES THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION REPORTED UNDER ITEM #10745399 OCCURS IN WET ROAD CONDITIONS AND NOT JUST WHEN TRAVELING OVER A PUDDLE. MERCEDES REFUSES TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY RELATED DEFECT UNDER WARRANTY.
