No, sorry about that, but typically without going to court they won't cover non repair costs except for a rental car. So it is up to you. Get a good starting top of the line rental ASAP and turn your downtime into something productive. If you must take a long cab ride to get the rental, I "think" they would cover that also. Figure 3 or 4 days for the dealer to find and solve the problem and bug the devil out of them after the first 24 hours (by phone) to make sure that it is fixed correctly. Mandate that the repaired vehicle sit out side for two nights and that it starts instantly both mornings. My goodness, when I was a kid, we moved to Alberta and Dad bought a new 51 Mercury. Had 6 volts and a slobbery carbuetor and a wobbley distributor and an automatic choke and that car would sit out at night all night in Edson, or Barrhead or Rockey Mountain house or Peace River and Dad never gave starting that car a second thought. And that was before "starting fluid" was ever on the market. That was like 56 years ago. If they could make them start then, they certainly should fire up now. Get nasty with them ! Tell Mercedes Benz you want a new car, now!
