Registration Fees on Nav Replacements
This thread is meant to provide a back-up to those members whose dealers are trying to collect the registration fees on the replacement vehicles.
Mercedes Benz is picking up and paying the fees on these cars.
Please confirm how your dealer handled the fees and what you had to pay when you picked up the car.
Dlau and others can copy this thread and show it to their dealer if they attempt to charge these fees.
In my case:
Washington State...I paid nothing. MB picked up all registration and license fees. There was a zero balance when I exchanged cars.

Emphasized by salesperson that there would be nothing out of pocket. Still things not resolved, but I was the first person at the dealership with the replacement Nav and I had several extra after-purchases. I am told that the extended warrenty issue has just been resolved, but I have not seen the paperwork.
I haven't given them a penny at any point.
[But, I did give thousands of dollars. Still I think that may be different from what is asked...

Paid notihing, couldn't have been smoother. The dealer had the tinging, LoJack, hands free, voice activated phone all installed and ready to go. They gave me loaner while they switched the wood wheel. When they finished that, I just signed a substitution of collateral (mine is leased) and drove away, no fees, etc. Here, of course, I just got a transfer of registration and the tag was switched to the new car. So, transfer fees would be minimal.
