$2,003.00 and still not fixed.

I drove home from work and parked my 2011 c300. Decided to go to the grocery store. When I returned to my vehicle it would not start. The lights came on, radio came on, but engine would not turn. Tried jumping the vehicle, vehicle would not start. Eventually I towed it to Mercedes Benz of Palm Springs and the diagnostic was replace steering wheel lock, I paid 2,003.00.

I received my car back one week later. After leaving the Palm Springs Mercedes dealership service department, my car died 5 miles down the road while going 60 miles per hour. After pulling over, my car had a burning smell coming from the steering wheel and had no power and would not start. Mercedes wanted me to tow it back to them, I refused and they eventually sent a tow truck. Next day they notified me that the problem was my starter and starter relay, and they are asking for another 1400 dollars.
