I was driving my 2015 mb Gla250 4matic [xxx] and suddenly 5 warning alerts popped on the display and the respective signals turned on the dashboard. The 5 warnings were: 4matic currently unavailable, inoperative ABS, parking break, collision prevention assist plus inoperative and check engine. In addition, the steering wheel became heavy at the same time. I turned off the car and turned it on again and at that time only the check engine signal was on. As soon as I accelerated the car and the car changed to 2nd, all the original lights and warning turned on and the steering wheel became heavy. I am sharing this information because I've read multiple similar complaints online. The warranty of the car expired in December 2018 (3 months ago) and back in November my vehicle stayed a couple weeks in garage isla verde (puerto rico) due to problems with transmission. My car has 18,000 miles and I find these types of errors unbealivable since it's an almost new unit. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact leased a 2015 Mercedes Benz Gla250. While the vehicle was idling, the steering wheel shook and the power steering failed. The contact stated that an abnormal banging noise emitted from the steering wheel in mid-turn causing the contact to go over the curb. Following the failure, the tire light illuminated. The front passenger tire fractured and rolled underneath the vehicle. The contact was not injured. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The dealer stated that the failure was caused by the contact impacting the curb; however, the contact drove over the curb because the power steering failed and an unknown component fractured. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 420......updated 12/15/15 updated 10/3/2017
