What does the Mercedes me app do?

Here’s a guide to each of the services and the benefits for your business:

Assistance & Aftercare

• Telediagnostics. Mercedes me can detect wear on critical parts such as brake pads. Northside Truck and Van will receive a notification and contact you to book any repairs. This could prevent components failing, reducing your costs and downtime.
• Remote Vehicle Diagnostics. Ahead of a workshop visit, Northside Truck and Van will be able to run a quick test to assess your maintenance requirements, allowing them to notify you and order any parts so that repairs and servicing can be taken care of in advance and together for maximum efficiency, again reducing your van’s downtime. 
• Maintenance Management. Mercedes me will run an automatic maintenance test before your service light comes on, then transmit the results to Northside Truck and Van so we can prepare an itemised quote for repairs and servicing. They can contact you to plan your workshop visit well in advance to minimise any impact on your business.
• Accident Recovery. Once an emergency call has been resolved, further accident management support is offered to help recover your van or to tow it to a Mercedes-Benz Service outlet. 
• Breakdown Management. If you request breakdown assistance, your MobiloVan technician will be able to see your GPS location and assess the condition of your van remotely, enabling them to find you easily and prepare so there’s a greater chance they may be able to repair your van at roadside.
• Software updates. Over-the-air software updates are sent directly to your van’s head unit. This means you’ll always know your software is up to date and you’ll save time by avoiding additional workshop visits.

Vehicle Supervision.

• Vehicle Tracker. See your van’s location on the map in your app, making it easy to call or message your driver and re-route them to fit in another delivery or pick up if a quicker route is available.
• Parked Vehicle Locator. If you’re within 1 mile of your van’s parked location, the app can generate the most convenient walking route – very handy if you’re in unfamiliar surroundings and on a busy schedule.

Remote Access

• Remote Retrieval of Vehicle Status. Use your app to check on fuel/charge level, tyre pressure, mileage, average fuel consumption and trip information. Not only does this help you plan your day’s journeys, it can save you admin time on tasks such as logging your mileage for expenses. 
• Remote Door Locking & Unlocking. The app allows you to check if your van is locked. If you lock your keys in the van or need to give another driver access, you can do it via the app, from any distance away. For added peace of mind, you’ll receive an email notification when your vehicle is unlocked.

EV Services

• Programming of charging settings and Pre-Entry Climate Control. Climate control can be started remotely when your van is charging so energy used for heating will draw on the mains power to avoid depleting your battery. This means you’ll have maximum comfort and battery range. 
• Display of Charging Stations. Need to plan a stop for charging? Mercedes me shows you charging stations in the surrounding area on the map and enables you to set the preferred one as your destination, reassuring you that it will be within your range. 
• Range on Map. The range display in your app helps you plan a journey with confidence as it shows if you can reach your destination using your existing battery range, whether it’s in ‘critical range’ or cannot be reached. This takes into account the geography and other characteristics of the route.
