 While traveling on i94 thru north dakota my srs warning light came on. a message on the dash board told me to visit a repair shop as soon as possible. about 10 minutes later the light went out. the light came on again while slowing to exit the interstate highway for a fuel stop. upon restarting the engine everything was normal. about 30 minutes later the srs light came on again for about 5 or ten minutes. this pattern of normal engine starts and then intermittent srs warnings continues. i have read in the mercedes benz owners forum that there has been an nhtsa investigation : pe10017 that appears to reflect the same problem i am having. please help.
