Or even better, to disable the car from being driven. In the app the Valet Protect and Geofencing only send alert when entering/existing a preset region.

In Mercedes Me there is a Valet Protect function that you can turn on. It will then notify you every time the car is started, turned off, or if it leaves the specified radius of where you are at the time. I believe you can also lock the trunk.

Edit: i should have read your post instead of just the title. Didn't realize you already mentioned the app and wanted to know if there was more than that.

In my W213 there is a switch in the glove box that prevents the central locking system from unlocking the trunk. One may be in the W214 as well.

Sadly, that is gone. Or so I heard. I also don't find any traces of it mentioned in the operator's manual of the W214, or maybe I missed it.

Ther is no switch in the glove box any longer, but you can lock the trunk using the settings through the main screen.

Good to hear it is still possible although buried in the screen and menus.
