Some states do not permit the exclusions or limitations of implied warranties, so these limitations may not apply to you. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
MERCEDES-BENZ USA, LLC, OR THE AUTHORIZED MERCEDES-BENZ DEALER NEITHER ASSUME NOR AUTHORIZE ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR THEM ANY OTHER LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH VEHICLE.
NO PAYMENT OR OTHER COMPENSATION WILL BE MADE FOR INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE, SUCH AS DAMGE OR INJURY TO PERSON OR PROPERTY OR LOSS OF REVENUE WHICH MIGHT BE PAID, UNCURRED OR SUSTAINED BY REASON OF THE FAILURE OF ANY PART OR ASSEMBLY THAT MAY BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED IN ACCORD WITH THE TERMS OF THIS WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
Failure to follow the required Mercedes-Benz service maintenance schedule, using specified materials, fluids, and parts, at the specified intervals could cause vehicle damage not covered by this Warranty.
Emission System Warranty and Service Maintenance
Where applicable, your vehicle may qualify for any remaining portion of the emission systems, Emission performance, or California Emission Control System warranties.
The law requires your vehicle to conform to exhaust emission standards. To provide the best vehicle performance and lowest vehicle emissions, you are responsible to see that all recommended maintenance procedes detailed in the vehicle’s Service Booklet are performed at the specified times and mileages. The emission control warranty does not cover failures due solely to owner abuse or lack of proper maintenance. (Refer to the original new vehicle Service and Warranty Information booklet for more information regarding emission control warranty coverage).
More frequent maintenance may be needed for vehicles under severe operating conditions such as dusty areas, very short trip driving, or trailer towing.
Although warranty obligations are not dependent upon the use of any particular brand of replacement parts, you may elect to use non-genuine Mercedes-Benz parts for replacement purposes. We recommend the use of Mercedes-Benz spare parts for service and repairs since they have been made according to the manufacturer’s specifications. It is also important to use only fuels and lubricants meeting factory specifications since the emission systems warranty does not cover repair or replacement of parts necessitated by failure to use such items.
For detailed information concerning emission control system maintenance please refer to your Service Booklet. If you want additional information concerning tune-up specifications or emission control system maintenance jobs, we recommend a special Maintenance Manual, which is available from your authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership or directly from MBUSA.

MBWorld Fanatic!
Notice, #14 AIR SUSPENSION STRUTS are covered, but #2 SUSPENSION STRUTS are not covered. How confusing, contradictory, and deceptive... I still don't know if an air suspension strut is covered or not.
#5
I'm thinking "air suspension strut" is different than a regular gas charged strut and is covered.

For CPO warranty work - Depending on how a tech and dealer want to write the repair even the “Repairs required to wear and tear” is not covered could come into play. What could imaginatively could fit in this category??? Many many thing I could think of

Looks like Fidelity’s Platinum policy looks to one of the better ones especially if you get it before 10k miles for best prices via a couple members here on MBWorld. If you wait until 10,001 miles it jumps a bit but then the next limit seems to be 25k miles. FYI for those considering options.
My findings seem to show Fidelity Platinum is better than CPO ELW and is about as close to OEM new car warranty as it gets. AMG cars have a lot to go wrong in time and those repairs will likely be very expensive. The Fidelity Premium or Superior wheel and tire plans are also pretty good if you happen to have a vehicle with low profile tires and large wheels that can be damaged more easily.
MB ELW only repairs items listed while the Platinum is exclusionary with very few restricted items. Read them closely to understand. MB shown in previous post and below are the others.

Could you advise where can I download the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty terms and conditions listed above?
I'm looking for the initial CPO Limited Warranty that starts after the original 4 year/50,000 Miles Warranty NOT the CPO Extended Warranty and hopefully from MBUSA not specific dealer that only that dealer may warrant.

CNA Extended (Exclusionary) Warranty
There is another player in this field called CNA Automotive Preferred Care+Plus.
I have it on my Volvo XC90, my BMW X5 50i, and my wife's 2018 Toyota RAV4.
I am now shopping for a 4yr/48/100 or a 5yr/60/100 for a 2018 GLS550 with 68K miles.
Locally I found the best prices at my Lexus or Toyota dealer. So far I have a quote for a CNA Automotive Preferred Care+Plus, 4yr/48/100 for $4,800.
Shop around for the best rate ...
One caveat: the car MUST be inspected at the selling dealer
This warranty is so good, I will ask the selling dealer to remove the CPO, discount the car and I'll buy the CNA instead.
Attached is the CNA Automotive Preferred Care+Plus contract language. Read for yourself and decide.
