 I had so many problem with my mercedes e350, but when the engine light was on i couldn't believe was the balance shaft. it was in warranty so i didn't pay a cent but when they returned the car back was not the same any more, the tail light was cracked and the a/c opening are inside. the car is not any more the same, sometimes is shaking, and has so many other problems. i saw online that mercedes has to many cars with this defects that brings more problems, so i'm asking what are you waiting for a recall?????? *tr

 The main wiring harness for the engine, lighting, fuel injection and rest of critical functions of the vehicle has disintegrated due to a manufacturing defect. the manufacturer has used an inferior and unsuitable insulation for the wires, which, is brittle, cracking and falling off exposing bare wires, creating an extremely hazardous situation. the wire insulation deterioration is causing the wires to short and prevents the vehicle from functioning correctly. this is creating a serious safety hazard. (possible, fire in engine, etc). due to the seriousness, i recommend the national highway traffic safety administration order the manufacture to properly investigate and issue a safety recall. the manufacturer is aware of this widespread defect but refuses to order a recall. i purchased this vehicle new and operated it under normal conditions. the vehicle has been regularly serviced and maintained by mercedes benz authorized dealers since it was new. the vehicle has been well kept and maintained. your assistance would be greatly appreciated! thank you! gregory chassin
