Same problems or seperate. Contact MBUSA and get the local reps name. It isn't held agains the service advisor, and if he is a friend, he will work with you to get this resolved.

I Jumped It And It Was All Good Then It Died The Day After That Was It Deader Then Dead The Key Wont Even Turn I Called Roadside And They Came They Couldnt Figure It Out. It Got Towed To The Dealer And Been There For Almost 2 Weeks. They Didnt Get It Started Yet And No Were Near!

I understand you're upset, but writing your post in obnoxious capitalization isn't exactly the best way to solicit helpful opinion and advise from the readers of this board... I would tend to agree with Harris that it seems like an alternator issue, but you would have thought they checked that already.

How can it be an alternator issue if you put a new battery in it and it will not start?
