THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 4 SEPARATE WHEEL SPED SENSOR FAILURES. WHEN EACH INCIDENT OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN AND AT THE SAME TIME THE ABS WILL NOT ALLOW FULL BRAKING PRESSURE WHILE UNDERWAY. YOU WILL HEAR THE ABS SOUND LIKE IT'S SLIDING ON A SLIPPERY SURFACE IN ANY CONDITION. AS THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES AND BRAKING PRESSURE IS GREATLY REDUCED, IT IS SOMETIMES NECESSARY TO QUICKLY SHOVE THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL TO KEEP FROM HITTING ANYTHING AHEAD. WHEN THESE FAILURES OCCUR IT CAN BE AT ANY SPEED OR ON ANY SURFACE. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND NOW HAS APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES. OCCASIONALLY, PRIOR TO THE DASH LIGHTS INDICATING A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WILL ALSO CUT ALL POWER. THIS TYPICALLY HAS HAPPENED ON HARD ACCELERATION ONTO A HIGHWAY, BEING EQUALLY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE IS JUST GOING OUT OF WARRANTY AND I HAVE TRIED TO WORK OUT A SOLUTION WITH MERCEDES WHO HAVE NOW STATED I HAVE NO CLAIM. A FINAL FACTOR IS THAT AT ABOUT 10,000

I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HWY AND THE ABS AND ESP WARNING MALFUNCTION OCCURED WITH A VISIT WORKSHOP MESSAGE. THE ENGINE RPM REVED UP AND THE VEHICLE SLOWED TO 40 MPH.

FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THIS SAME THING PREVIOUSLY OCCURED WITH THE PREVIOUS OWNER WITH 4000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE THE SPEED SENSORS WERE REPLACED AT FACTORY AUTH DEALER AT THAT TIME. THIS INCIDENT I AM DESCRIBING OCCURED AT 12000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. I WAS 700 MILES FROM HOME AND THE NEAREST FACTORY REPAIR FACILITY'S ONLY EMERGENCY OPENING WAS 3 DAYS IN THE FUTURE.

IN OCTOBER OF 2018 AT 28,860 ODOMETER MILES, THE PASSENGER REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILED WHILE DRIVING FROM ATLANTA, GA TO WEST PALM BEACH, FL.
