2019 Wagon and Mercedes Me Connect

So I went to the dealer today for a recall and some maintenance.

I had a good experience (still waiting on tires) except the service department seemed confused about activating the remaining privacy/safety-sensitive features in the Mobile Me Connect application (e.g. tracking the vehicle).

The service point of contact seems to think I need to pay $210 to reset the system because I'm the new owner.

I didn't think that sounded right because MB's "Services" page shows I have 4 3 years of services from the vehicle's original registration date (mid-2019) and specifically states: "Term runs until MM/DD/2022" (where MM/DD is the registration date).

I'm pretty sure the services for the 2019 model year were transferable and last for 4 3 years (~15 3 mos. left).

Who is right? Can anyone else confirm this?

Thanks!

They tried to charge me as well as i’m the 2nd owner, despite being within the 4 year mark. Transfer of ownership requires you to pay it

@Correct_Map Thanks... It looks like I have 3 mos. left.

I also quickly learned that Service and Sales don't really talk to each other.

I have the 2020 E63s wagon and no extra dealer charge for me nor did any other CPO Mercedes we have had. I find this odd.

Update: The Mercedes Me Connect “Identity Check” feature is working!

I went through the process and was fully activated in a few minutes.

The app used to immediately crash.

The new version on iOS was updated sometime this week.
