This service is split into two packages: Service A and Service B. Each package includes basic maintenance on you Mercedes-Benz vehicles, but there are some differences between the two packages. To help you better understand how we here at Mercedes-Benz of Scottsdale, AZ, keep your Mercedes-Benz vehicle is tip-top shape, we thought we’d put together a side-by-side comparison of the two service packages so you can see exactly what is going on.
