Car Won't Start - Please Help
Car is a 2007 W211 E63 AMG 75,255 miles.
I was driving pretty hard in the canyons after getting front struts replaced with Arnott's, when the car suddenly feels very strange so I let off the gas and I see the ABS on the dash and other lights flashing, I was still going pretty fast so I didn't exactly see, slight loss of braking feel and the car was doing strange things until I got home. The Navigation turned off as did the music and then turned back on and the message "Pre Safe Inoperative - See Owners Manual" appeared at the beginning of all of this.
Anyway so I get home, turn off the car, try to lock it and it wont lock, try to unlock it, nothing. I get in and try to unlock it and still nothing, so I try to start it and the key wont even turn. Can't even start it with push start while holding the brake.
Alternator, radar sensors? Battery? I just got a new Odyssey battery btw
Going to get the car towed tomorrow most likely but input would be greatly appreciated. Really hope this is not another costly repair, seriously considering selling the car as I have no warranty.

Have you checked the battery cables and connections at each end of both battery cables?

do you have the owners manual or you should be able to download it online
think you can manually open the trunk with the metal key out of your key fob, but not positive this is true
manual should tell you
