One Million Mercedes-benzes Recalled Because They May Catch Fire by AutoJoshNG: 9:36pm On Mar 03, 2017
Many of us won’t be liking this as Mercedes-Benz recalls 1 million vehicles. According to Automotive News, these cars may become Car-B-Ques.

This recall was made after 51 fires were reported due to defective starter parts. The starter motor overheats when the car doesn’t start after many attempts.

The affected vehicles include C-class, E-class, and CLA, GLA and GLC made between 2015 and 2017. So if your car doesn’t start, it may be better not to push too hard.

Fortunately, no injuries or deaths have been reported. 30 out of the 51 occurred in the United States.

The main essence of a car is to take a person from point A to B. When you try making this object too complex in the name of technological advancement you get this.

If not for those "technological advancements", you'd still be stuck on the back of camels or horses. Stop thinking like a typical African who is always satisfied with the status quo. Yearn for improvements.

This is why I like Mercedes. Very thorough and proactive. Unlike Toyota that needed a whistle blower to give them a kick in the nuts before they did the needful. Still my my four-legged best friend @MERCEDES

Simply because they are making these devices do way more than their primary function.
