Mercedes-Benz Mobile Apps Overview:mbrace®, My MBFS, Drive Kit Plus & Roadside Assistance

Mercedes-Benz Owners Mobile Apps

Mercedes-Benz has always been at the cutting edge of technology. From early inventions like the first vehicle air bags and electronic stability control systems, innovation is simply a way of life at Mercedes-Benz. It stands to reason then, that in our modern era of connectivity and mobile devices, the engineers at Mercedes-Benz would develop some of the newest and most innovative technologies for use on these highly advanced vehicles.

Here at Mercedes-Benz of Westminster we recognize that having the latest gadgets appeals to some of our valued customers, but not to everyone. That’s why we’re here to help you understand and use the mobile applications that are available if you want to, but they are purely optional. We also know that folks around the Denver area, including Boulder, Aurora, Lakewood and surrounding areas, tend to be very tech-savvy. That’s why we’ve put together this list of mobile app and other tech features with brief descriptions of what they are and what they do.
