Service for your Mercedes-Benz in Fort Walton Beach, six days a week

We are open Monday through Saturday at the same hours, seven in the morning until six in the evening, so a Saturday here is a full service day.

This guide covers which scheduled service your Mercedes-Benz is due, what the warranty covers, and how we get you where you are going while it is with us.

It also sets out the emissions coverage on a Florida-registered Mercedes-Benz.

What does a visit to our service department look like?

Six days, same hours

Monday to Saturday, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, at 1000 Beal Parkway NW. Saturday is a full day here.

Loaner, shuttle or valet

The loaner and the local valet are by appointment, and we arrange either when you schedule.

Florida emissions coverage

A Florida-registered Mercedes-Benz carries the federal emissions defect term of 7 years or 70,000 miles.

What should you expect during your service visit?

Step 1: Pick a day, including Saturday

We are open 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Saturday, so a full job can be done on a Saturday.

Step 2: Tell us whether you need a loaner or the valet

Both are by appointment, and we arrange them when you schedule.

Step 3: Bring the VIN and we will read what is due

It tells us whether you are due a Service A or a Service B, and how long we need the bay.

Step 4: We diagnose before we quote

For a fault, we find the cause first, and then we quote the repair.

Step 5: Every extra job starts with a conversation

We consult you first, and the work begins once you approve it.

Step 6: You approve, and anything put off is written down

The file carries it forward, so the next visit begins where this one ended.

Schedule the visit

We arrange a loaner or the valet for your visit.

Both are by appointment from our service department on Beal Parkway, and we have either ready when you schedule.

What else you may be wondering

When to come

Are you open on Saturday?

Yes, and at full hours. We run 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Saturday, so Saturday is a whole working day here.

Can a bigger job be done on a Saturday?

Yes. Saturday runs the full day, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, so tell us what your Mercedes-Benz needs and we will reserve the time for it.

When are you closed?

Sunday. We are open 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Saturday.

How early can I drop off?

From 7:00 AM, six days a week.

Service A and B

When is Service A due?

The first one falls at around 10,000 miles or a year, whichever comes first, and it repeats roughly every 20,000 miles or two years from there.

What is in Service A?

Mercedes-Benz motor oil replacement, oil filter replacement, fluid level checks and corrections, a tire inflation check and correction, a brake component inspection and a maintenance counter reset.

What does Service B add?

Everything Service A includes, plus the cabin dust and combination filter.

How long should I allow for Service B?

More than an hour. Service B may take longer than 60 minutes.

Is there a schedule for my exact model?

The item list belongs to the individual car. Send the VIN and we will read what applies to yours.

Florida coverage

I read that Mercedes emissions coverage runs 15 years. Does that apply to me?

In Florida the federal term of 7 years or 70,000 miles applies. The extended emission control warranty of 15 years or 150,000 miles applies to qualifying SULEV vehicles registered in a named list of states.

Which states get the longer coverage?

CA, CO, CT, MA, MD, ME, MN, NJ, NV, NY, OR, RI, VA, VT and WA.

I moved here from one of those states. What then?

We read it from the VIN. Coverage follows where the vehicle was first sold and registered.

What about a plug-in hybrid battery?

The extended high voltage battery warranty of 10 years or 150,000 miles applies in that same list of states. In Florida the standard term applies.

What is covered

How long is a new Mercedes-Benz covered?

Four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Individual components may carry shorter terms.

Are brake pads covered?

Brake pads are wear items, and replacing them is maintenance. We fit Genuine Mercedes-Benz pads, backed by the 2-Year Parts Limited Warranty.

Do the parts you fit carry any warranty?

Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts are backed by a 2-Year Parts Limited Warranty, which applies to what we fit, not to the car as a whole.

What does a service contract cover?

Our service contracts cover parts and labor for up to 4 years. That is separate from the factory warranty.

Certified pre-owned

When does my certified warranty start?

Once the original one ends. A certified Mercedes-Benz carries the remaining 4-year or 50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty first, and the CPO Limited Warranty of 12 months with unlimited miles begins after that.

How thorough is the certification inspection?

165 or more points, and electric vehicles go through a different inspection.

Getting around

Can I get a loaner?

Yes. Loaners are by appointment, and we arrange one when you schedule.

Do you pick up the car?

Yes. Our local valet service is by appointment, and for a straightforward job it picks up your Mercedes-Benz and returns it to you.

Is there a shuttle?

Yes, and it runs to shopping and restaurants as well as home, which helps if you are waiting out a longer job.

Can I work while I wait?

There are work stations with a computer charger and Wi-Fi, along with a complimentary coffee and espresso bar, snacks and drinks.

How we quote

Will you start extra work without telling me?

No. We consult you first, and additional repairs begin only once you approve them.

Does the quote include labor?

We give a transparent quote covering all parts and labor. Labor is in the quote from the start.
