I am seeking corporate intervention to resolve a high-cost repair stemming entirely from an undisclosed, out-of-specification pre-existing condition present at the time of sale. Chronology of Events [XXX] (Purchase & Test Drive): I purchased the vehicle as a Certified Pre-Owned unit from Mercedes-Benz of North Houston. During the initial test drive, I explicitly noted and pointed out an active issue with the radar/sensor system to the sales team. Delayed Delivery: Due to this sensor issue, the dealership delayed delivery of the vehicle for approximately 2 to 3 weeks to allegedly resolve the problem. I took delivery in December 2025 once the sensors appeared to be functi INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

1. March 11th: First Incident was when crossing a railroad crossing in [XXX] ~2:00pm the car suddenly braked and seatbelts tightened very strongly and immediately stopped, Automatic braking was engaged. There was a car Behind me and barely was able to brake and avoid rear ending me. We took it to dealer in Fremont (mb of fremont) a service advisor checked the car and drove it for a while (Joe Defraeitas) they were not able to find any issue and sent us back. asking us to bring it back if it happens again. my speed was between 30-40mph. I don't remember if there was lights flashing warning or not. all I remember it suddenly halted and stopped and I was really scrared. 2. March 17th at a very close time to ~2:00PM at exactly same place this issue happened again, this time I was with my daughter [XXX] ) and same exact thing happened; luckily no cars were behind me at that time again, same as before speed 30-40mph and no warning lights that I remember. this time we took the car to service dealership on March 20th and they asked us to schedule an appoint and we did bring it back on march 26th. The RO# from mboffremont is XXX; again same advisor. they claimed they checked all the software and sensors and nothing wrong with the car. 3.

We reported it this time to MB dealership in Pleasanton, CA. This was the original dealership where we bought the car. again they claim nothing is wrong with the car.

There have been 3 instances of the same incident of the Automatic Emergency Breaking system failing, the 3 times has happened over the 8 months I have owned the car. Mercedes has aknowledged the failure of the automatic breaking system but they do not have any fixes for it. When I am driving, if the safety system senses a police radar system a car may have installed (like an old school one on a civilian's car dashboard) the car's security system "shuts down" for a couple seconds and slams on the breaks nearly causing a crash. I have been driving at 15-20 MPH on a clear street and out of nowhere the car slams on the breaks because it detects someone's radar detector. As you can imagine, this is absolutley terrifying to be driving on a clear street and have the car slam on it's breaks. My heart rate goes up, I have been visibly shaken up. The feeling is as if I got into a car accident-but I didn't it was self-induced by the vehicle. I am worried if someone is driving behind me and is not prepared for the car to break, I will be rear-ended. Please help Mercedes owners fix this, it's horrible.
