Need some help quick!!!
My 2007 CLS63's engine shuts off intermittently while I am driving. It has happened while on the highway and even while making left hand turns. The car has become extremely dangerous for me to drive. Here's the thing though. I brought it to the dealer several times and all they do is check for fault codes, which there are none showing and drive it for about 14 to 21 miles and the problem can't be duplicated. Once I take it home and drive it for about 70 to 100 miles it starts happening to me. The engine just shuts off, but all the electronics remain active. Once I turn the key to off, it starts right back up when I crank it over. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!! At this point I don't know what to do.....

It's not a lemon,it's simply a machine.

I agree. Give the dealer more time to deal with it. Ask them if they can have a shop foreman drive it home and or put the 70-100 miles on it. Mention that you feel it is saftey related, but don't threaten with "lemon" yet. Threatening with buy-back automaticly puts a bad taste in peoples mouths.
