Stalled at Idle

Hello,

My 2016 e400 recently stalled while I was at a red light idling. I had the eco button turned off. When it stalled, all the lights on the dash came on. It started right back up and hasn't done it since this morning and seems to be running just fine. This has never happened before, but I am a bit concerned as I have a long trip to make tomorrow. The car has 37,000 miles on it and is up to date on all maintenance, etc. Anyone have any ideas as to what could have caused this?


Thanks.

If worried go to dealer for them to check it out for codes etc.

Modern cars glitch from time to time. All of my cars, including the Mercedes glitch. Too many electronics at times. Reset and drive on.

I had this in my 03 S500, it slowly started happening more often and mostly when it was warm, it was the Cam Position Sensor, replaced that and all was well.
But I'm guessing, best to pull the codes with a Icarsoft MB2 or an equivalent code reader.
