it appeared to be locked in a lower gear.

What is your question?

I left a store and the car was very slow and the RPM's were up to 4000 plus and going nowhere. i shifted to N and back to D and it then started acting normal. I drove it back home next day about 200 plus miles and had no issues. Would it be a fluke or bite me later?

Check fluid level first and top off if needed. Could be a little low causing it to stick. It could be a sensor issue but hard to say right now.

Manual shows it must be brought back to Mercedes to check transmission fluid level. I will get a obd2 tester Wednesday and check to see if there are codes in system that may help; will post if it shows anything. Thanks for your reply.
