MY MERCEDES BENZ 1992 190E IS HAVING COLD START ISSUES AND IN GENERAL STALLING ISSUES. I JUST RECEIVED A JUMP BY MERCEDES AND MINUTES LATER THE BATTERY DIED AFTER ONLY PARKING IT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE STREET. I HEAR THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER USERS OF MERCEDES BENZ WHO ARE HAVING HARNESS WIRING ISSUES AND THIS HAS TO DEFINITELY BE MY PROBLEM AS I CAN SEE OTHER ELECTRICAL FAULTS OCCURING SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH MY AIR AND HEATING, WARNING LIGHTS, DASH LIGHTS, WINDOWS, ETC. MERCEDES BENZ SHOULD HELP EVERYONE WITH THE PROBLEM GET IT RESOLVED. HOW ABOUT A RECALL. *CN
