Adding My ML to Google Maps on PC

When trying to add my ML to Google Maps on PC for "send to car", I notice that MB is no longer listed as a manufacturer on the drop down list so adding the vehicle to the application is not possible. Is this intentional on MB's part?

It used to be there and I was always able to send a destination to my 2015 ML. Is my only option now my Mercedes Me app on my iPhone?

It used to work so well... send the destination to the car before you leave, go to the car and it was there ready to go.

Dear Barry:

Thanks for your email to the Customer Assistance Center at Mercedes-Benz USA.

It might help to know that Google no longer offers "Send to Car" for Mercedes-Benz vehicle. As an alternative, customers can use wego.here.com to send to their vehicle.

We hope this information helps and wish you many miles of safe, pleasant driving.

Kind regards,

Olivia

(800) 367-6372

BTW It looks just like Google Maps & I think MB is at least a partner in "Here"
This is how to do it:
Sign In.
Enter Destination without specifying your starting point.
Look for and click on the Share symbol (Looks like a V with 3 dots at the top of the lines, except that it is rotated 90 degrees on its side.
Choose Send to car. (When registering the car the first time Use the VIN not email as was done with Google.)
