3 CARessentials CARessentials Guaranteed satisfaction. Many parties claim to be able to repair a Mercedes-Benz, but how many are willing to guarantee their work for two years? Every Mercedes-Benz is made to last, but like the human body, your car could do with some love and attention as time goes by. In more practical terms, by giving your Mercedes-Benz the best possible care, you can ensure that it will always perform the way that it should, while also protecting your investment in it. But how do you find the best care for your car? One sure way is to take it to any Mercedes-Benz Authorised Service Center, where the work done is of such high standards that every repair is covered by a 24-month warranty. This reassurance can be given because only skilled hands and Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts are used in our repairs. Our technicians undergo rigorous training to ensure that they know every inch of your car. In other words, they are trained in the art of caring for your Mercedes-Benz by the best possible people: those who designed and manufactured it in the first place. Special diagnostic tools and service repair manuals help our technicians to properly troubleshoot any problem and locate any fault, while taking the guesswork out of the correct steps and procedures to follow for a perfect repair. And of course, the importance of using only Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts cannot be underestimated. Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts are specifically developed for a particular model, and are designed to work in perfect harmony with the other components of that model. This is especially vital in the digital age, when sensitive electronics systems play an enormous role in the smooth running of a car. A humble window motor, say, might seem like a simple device. But how would you know that a third-party component was properly shielded to prevent electromagnetic frequencies from interfering with the electrical signals passing through your car s wiring looms? In contrast, each and every Mercedes-Benz GenuinePart is put through the most stringent tests. That is why only Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts are guaranteed to be fully compatible with your car, and all are built to a certified quality. But that is not all. Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts are also continually updated according to the latest vehicle technology, to ensure that they stay as technically current as possible and where appropriate. In other words, taking your car to a Mercedes-Benz Authorised Service Center ensures that you always get the latest parts, and not something outdated or even deteriorated by age that just happens to fit. You should not ever be worried about parts availability either. All Mercedes-Benz Authorised Service Centers offer the complete range of genuine parts for your car, while our sophisticated logistics can guarantee that parts will be available as quickly as possible, offering the shortest possible downtime for any repair that you need to be carried out. Valuable time can be saved by getting your repairs done at one location, instead of having to find third-party specialists for one field of car repair or another. Think of the 24-month repair warranty offered by your Mercedes-Benz Authorised Service Center as more than a guarantee on the quality of the parts and labour. It is also a guarantee of your satisfaction.

A: Most Mercedes-Benz models are equipped with COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST. At speeds between 7 km/h and 250 km/h, the system is able to detect when the distance between your vehicle and other vehicles or obstacles in front is too short. When a hazard is detected, the driver is given both visual and acoustic warnings. If the driver applies the brakes at the same time, Adaptive Brake Assist helps calculate the precise amount of braking power needed to offer the optimum scope for preventing an impending collision under ideal circumstances.
