NHTSA Recall ID: 23V445, Fuel Pump Delivery Module How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Vehicle at risk to lose drive power, increasing the chance of crashing while operating.

They refuse to let me make apt on Sat/Sundays and they will not have car towed to and from Mercedes dealership to my work.

Fuel/propulsion System
06/26/2023
I recently received a notification from Mercedes-Benz concerning a safety defect in my vehicle, and to be honest, it's really concerning. The issue is with the fuel pump impeller in certain models, including mine. If this part malfunctions, it can cause the vehicle to suddenly lose power, potentially leading to accidents. Imagine driving on a highway and suddenly losing all drive power! The scariest part is that there's no immediate solution. They've informed me that the remedy isn't available yet and that they will contact me when it is. This has left me feeling unsafe every time I turn on the ignition. I'm sharing this because we might all be using our cars for trips or outings, and I believe it's crucial for everyone to be aware of the situation. I don't feel safe driving this care very time risking my life, and more over paying for damaged car Best regards, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
