Hello all, Recently, I watched a commercial that a driver while driving a MB got unconscious and lost control. But, the car discovered the issue, slowed down, moved to the right, stopped and called SOS. Did anybody watched this and how accurate is this? Thanks

It's true, but the Pull to Right part is only in Europe. Here it follows the lane markers and stays in lane. It's called Active Emergency Stop Assist.
I'm not sure if requires a package, though.

I recently picked up a nail and my TPMS warned and showed 22 psi. I pulled over, put my flashers on and went out to check with my tire gauge that 22psi was correct, so I could decide if I could get to a tire store. It was, and I did, 1 mile at 20-30 mph.

But before I started to drive, I got a text on my phone, a Mercedes Me alert, and a voice SOS from the car lady saying that they saw me stopped with flashers, asking if they should send emergency responders.

I don't know if this is part of the annual Subscription services, though.

Depending on the model and year, this system may only engage while DISTROINC and Active Steering is active and the driver ignores the message to put their hands on the steering wheel. Looks like in more recent models, it also engages when just driving and no inputs are detected from the driver for a certain amount of time. The specific implementation as mentioned above is also country specific.
