Mercedes-Benz is one of the most sought-after luxury car makes to date. Many drivers dream and save until they can obtain one, but is the cost and maintenance of the vehicle itself common knowledge to the general populace? Here at Community Automotive Repair in Grand Rapids, Michigan, we are more than happy to assist our customers with understanding the expectations and upkeep of working on preserving the longevity and performance of their Mercedes. There is a lot to remember when owning this particular vehicle, regardless of which model you decide to take home.

Which Services Are Necessary?

Did you know that Mercedes has A and B services? Mercedes is a very eccentric brand with many bells and whistles that make this luxury vehicle unique.

A Service:

This service includes motor oil and oil filter replacements, fluid level checks and corrections, tire pressure checks, brake inspections, and counter resets. You need an A service for your Mercedes every 10,000 miles or an odd number of years (i.e., 1, 3, 5, etc.)

B Service:

This service includes the same necessary services like A, but adds cabin filter replacement, and brake fluid change. You will need this service every 20,000 miles or even a number of years.

Mercedes also has Express Services, Prepaid Maintenance, and Extended Limited Warranties packages. Express service handles your vehicle needs in an hour or less, with or without an appointment. This option offers A and B services and more simple care like windshield wiper replacements, battery replacements, warranty or recall work, and AMG 2,000-mile Break-In Silence. Prepaid Maintenance offers booking in advance to save 30% on your services. This is honored at any Mercedes-Benz dealership, including Puerto Rico. Extended warranties cover your vehicle for an additional number of years so you can drive with confidence.
