MB got rid of it because they were losing money with it! They never raised the price of the cars compared to the drop in the dollar to the Euro so they had to do something. How could the car be neglected if MB dealers were doing the Service A and B for the first 50,000 miles? They have huge checklists to do and check everything between the two services. OF course after my warranty is up I will do the oil and filter myself as suggested by the FSS system. Actually FSS is still there in 2005 and has changed slightly, and they no longer pay for it. I think that is just stupid they do not include the Maintainance anymore though since BMW does it and included brakes in theres! MB may lose some customers to BMW if they were sticklers for not paying $150 for Service A and $300+ for Service B!
