2017 E300 Sedan
Car would not start
Had an issue today. Car is a E300 oct 2016 Build, P3. 600 miles on car. Drove car as normal, parked and went to lunch. Came back to car and tried to start. Nothing but about 20 or so errors scrolling accross the dash. No click, nothing.
Called for road assist and was sitting and waiting for tow. As I was sitting in car,door open, car off, the alarm goes off. I push the button on the key to stop the alarm, and the car starts.
So, i cancel the tow and drive to the dealer.
Dealer just called, said the read numerous faults, contacted Mercedes and they said issue with SAM module and corupt software. Dealer Loaded new software and claim problem solved.
My question, does this sound right? Should I be worried? Appreciate your thoughts.

The best or nothing
Glad it didn't happen during drive.
The head of Tech at my MB told me:
"When the car is new, problems have to be expected during the first year (or two) of production."
