Product Repair Details
The Mercedes-Benz S320 S430 S500 and S600 gear shifter can commonly fail causing it to jam in park or the transmission to go into fail safe mode (locked in one gear). We offer a repair service saving you thousands off the price of a new ESM. As this component is VIN locked to your vehicle, second hand parts are not an option, previously the only other option was to replace it with an expensive new part that still has the same design weakness. In most cases we can repair your gear selector within 24 hours and offer a 1 year unlimited km warranty*

Stuck in park
