NHTSA complaint #10749166, filed 2015-08, 101,000 miles“2010 S400 hybrid wont start first instance was less than 24 hour of purchasing car from local dealer. Lights all on but no crank. Started after and two weeks later it had to be towed because it completely wont start. Mbusa forum chat and several social media groups all around the world has the same problem with this model and it comes down to an electronics power module that cost more than what the car is worth to repair. Please advise!”
