There's a signature on my windshield
Why would there be a signature on the lower part of the passenger side of the windshield of my GLS? It looks like "Carl Beuz" in script and seems to be indelible, like part of the manufacturing process.

Karl Benz, the inventor of the modern gasoline automobile, also the founder of the Benz company that became Mercedes-Benz.
It is on most/all modern Mercedes. That being said, starting MY19 vehicles used Mercedes instead.

Personally signed by Carl himself do doubt ….. perhaps not.
Yep, our GLS has it also. I assume it’s on all.

Well, he is also known as Carl Friedrich Benz so there is that. Yup, as mentioned earlier, MY19 and up is replaced with Mercedes instead.

I haven't paid too much attention, so it is a pretty small sample size, but every 2020-2022 167 GLE/GLS I've seen as the Carl Benz signature, so I don't think it was replaced on those vehicles at least.
