Tell Miss Nicole to read the damn owner's manual!!! This is B to the S! You have the right to have service done anywhere you damned well please as long as you have service performed as outlined in your owner's manual/service schedule... It states this in the Owner's manual. As long as you keep all service records your rear is covered in the event that you would actually need to make a warranty claim!

I love my car but the shadiness of MB dealerships may make this my last Benz...this kind of thing happens all the time, blatant lying to the consumer to force you into spending tons of money on their services. If I were you I'd forward this email to MB corporate after you read the warranty statement in your Owner's manual and see what I'm talking about.

You are correct, that is a blatant lie and BS.

Verify this by going here: http://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/contact_us/overview

Call and ask for the warranty department, they will tell you exactly the correct information. I also check with MBUSA directly on stuff like this, I have busted several dealers lying about stuff, or telling "half-truths" to up-sell you.
