Losing power steering pressure while driving the car: safety issue it appears hard to steer the ml350

While driving down the highway i smelled what smelled like wires burning then my windshield wipers turned on by itself and wiped at a very fast pace, then the horn started blowing (on its own) very loudly, i pulled over at a tire shop and i noticed smoke coming from the rear passenger door panel. The fire department was called and they disconnected the battery. When i spoke to a mechanic i was told that there was a recall on the wiring harness and that was more than likely the problem.

Today, and while driving on a freeway, my car and i almost burned when i turned on the driver seat heater. I started feeling an excessive heat on the left back side. I stoped on the right of the freeway to discover that the seat leather was burned with heating wire, with smoke coming out from the seat. My shirt was damaged with the burn. Searching the web, i found many people complaining about the same issue.

While driving my turn signals, brake lights, windshield wipers, seat controls, and i'm not sure what else became inoperable. Also the srs warning displayed meaning the airbags were malfunctioning. Seems that the sam module is the culprit but nothing should be able to stop such vital safety issues from happening all at once. I have seen several articles about this happening and a recall is needed in my opinion.

On several occasions, while moving in traffic, the vehicle will jump from drive to neutral; the engine is disengaged and revs freely. The vehicle will not engage back into drive until the ignition is completely turned off, which locks the steering wheel, so the driver must exit the traffic lanes with no power before the vehicle can be restarted. This has almost cause a collision as the driver has no control of the car but must exit high speed traffic lanes, or come to a complete stop in the middle of a freeway.
