| thanks for the thoughful reassuring response, musikmann -- however, in my research, i have found the following from the benzo website indicating that the cpo coverage does include trip interruption reimbursement:
When you buy a Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicle, you receive much more than a fine automobile. You also reap the benefits of nationwide customer service and technical support that every Mercedes-Benz owner enjoys.
With 1-800-FOR-MERCEDES (1-800-367-6372) you are only a phone call away from 24-hour Roadside Assistance, Sign and Drive services (a free jump-start, flat-tire change with your existing spare, or some fuel for an empty tank), Trip Interruption and trip routing, product and technical information or anything else related to your Mercedes-Benz.
Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Exchange Privilege
Every Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is sold with a 7-day/500-mile Exchange Privilege*. If you are not satisfied, return within 7-days/500 miles (which ever comes first), and the Authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealer will exchange it with another Certified Pre-Owned vehicle of equal or greater value (if the buyer wishes to pay the difference).
* See your Mercedes-Benz Dealer for details.
Trip Interruption
Part of Mercedes-Benz Roadside Assistance, the Trip Interruption program reimburses** you for expenses up to $300 per day for up to three days in the event of a warranty-covered breakdown occurring more than 100 miles from home and causing an unexpected stay overnight.
**Reimbursement for actual documented meal, lodging and substitute transportation expenses incurred while your Mercedes is repaired at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership.
Mercedes-Benz Dealer Support
Your Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is supported by more than 300 authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealers nationwide, all of whom honor the standard Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty and Extended Limited Warranties.
1-800-FOR-MERCEDES
Whether you need Roadside Assistance, product information, or you just can't remember how to program the radio, this is the magic number to call, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. |
