Owner complaint summary

Dear Sirs: I own a 2020 GLC300W Mercedes SUV. As of this date, It has stalled 5 times while driving on the highway and on the roads within an 8 month period. Throughout this period, I have taken the vehicle to the Mercedes dealership in Riverside, CA three times to have this inspected. After their first inspection, the dealership claimed that the problem was due to a recall on a computer software update needed. However, the vehicle stalled two more times while driving on the highway. After the second inspection, the dealership claimed the problem was due to a bad throttle actuator and charged me $2000 for the repair. Two months later, the vehicle stalled on the road once again. Currently, the dealership is inspecting the vehicle for a THIRD time. I have viewed your NHTS website and came across NHTSA campaign number: 23V445, Problem Description: Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2021-2023 C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, CLS, SL, GT, GLC, GLE, GLS, and G-Class vehicles. Please refer to MBUSA's recall report for specific vehicle details. The fuel pump may shutdown, which can result in a loss of drive power." I believe this is the cause of my 2020 Mercedes doing the exact same thing, however the 2020 model is not listed in this recall. Please investigate this as this may be fuel pump issue applies to 2020 models.
