MERCEDES BENZ 240 2002 car safety problem was reported on July 29, 2001.MERCEDES BENZ 240 2002, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE . on july 19, 2001, i purchased a new mercedes benz c240 from valley motors, inc. at 9800 york road, cockeysville, maryland 21030. by the morning of july 29, 2001, i had put approximately 700 miles on the car without incident. at all times i operated the car according to law and according to the suggestions in the handbook that came with the car. at approximately 7 a.m. on the morning of july 29, 2001, i and my 71 year old father and 66 year old mother were traveling on i-95 north on our way to martha's vineyard for vacation. i was driving 60 to 65 mph in the "slow lane" when i felt a slight pulling feeling that seemed to be coming from the bottom of the car. i checked to see if any warning lights were on and they were not. because it didn't feel right, in an abundance of caution, i turned on my right blinker and headed for the shoulder of the road. as i made my way to the shoulder of the road, the car began to decelerate very rapidly until it came to a very abrupt halt. approximately 10 to 20 seconds elapsed between the time i first felt that slight pulling feeling and the time the car went completely dead on the side of the road. white smoke then began to billow out of the back of the car and and, at that time, the engine light came on. i tried to move the car further off the road for safety reasons (cars and trucks were passing by just inches from the car at high rates of speed causing the car to shake), the car would not move. i could not even put it in neutral so that the car could be pushed. i alerted the mercedes benz roadside service crew via tele-aid. when a mercedes benz mechanic came to the scene approximately two hours later, he said there was a "complete mechanical failure" and he had never seen anything like it. the car was towed away. al riggio, the man at valley motors who sold me the car, informed me on july 31, 2001, that inspection of the car revealed that the engine was "shattered into 100 pieces.".Vehicle was on fire. 3 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WDBRF61JX2F.

Mercedes Benz 240 2002 Fuel System, Gasoline Review #10290261

MERCEDES BENZ 240 2002 car safety problem was reported on Oct 27, 2009.MERCEDES BENZ 240 2002, manufactured by MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6) my mercedes c240 (vin: [xxx]) burned up its fuel pump wiring, and the dealer that repaired it, says they have seen this many times before . i replaced a faulty fuel pump as diagnosed by my mechanic. car still did not work so i had the car sent to dealer (euro motorcars of germantown md 301 601 5560). dealer said the wires to fuel pump melted and charged $460 to repair them (not a simple effort i was told). the dealer says this not uncommon, but it is more common to see this happen at connectors at fuel pump (which is submerged with gasoline inside fuel tank!) in my case wiring burned after computerized fuse box. i consider this a safety hazard and a latent defect. a well designed electrical system has fuses that are sacrificed before damage is done that could start a fire, or burn wires (that is why they are there). there is a 30 amp fuse for this system, and apparently they do not blow. i know my county building inspector would fail any new house wiring that was not adequately protected from situations that exceed the rating of the wires, it seems crazy the same is not happening here, and on a circuit the runs inside the gas tank no less! please investigate, and if you talk to mercedes, i think for me paying for a new fuel pump is sufficient, but i should not have to pay to repair a latent defect and obvious safety issue! thankyou for your consideration of my complaint *tr.Mileage was 190000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WDBRF61J02F. Mercedes Benz 240 2002 problem was reported in GAITHERSBURG, MD. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
