Thanks

The closest M-B dealer is in Sanford. They are owned by AutoNation and do a great job. Their parent is M-B of Orlando located in Maitland. Maitland is about 1 hour from TV

M-B of Gainesville is the 3rd closest. If you catch them on a good day they will bring a loaner to your house, perform needed maintenance, and drive your car back to your home. In my experience they are more expensive than the 2 locations I noted earlier. Probably because of the "free" pickup and delivery.

If your car is under warranty you must use a dealer. I use dealers only anyway because I'm not familiar with any local alternatives who would be unlikely to have access to genuine M-B parts and especially software patches and updates. The newer cars are all fly by wire and electronics.
