“Every 400 0r so miles the check engine light comes on. Codes are 19de00h and p16cc00 and p18f100 relating to the def burn. I have stopped at three mb dealerships. They look at code and reset system and tell me to drive the vehicle. They also have sent several people letters to request they have the vehicles for two weeks to study the problem. I can't do that.”
