I would guess the validation requirement was dropped and the form was not changed. No dealer validation is now needed. I got my 500,000 km badge for the SD w/o it.

IMHO, most dealerships are not even aware of the mileage badge program. I believe the emphasis of MB dealer owners and sales forces is now focused on SELL, SELL, SELL without recognizing and emphasizing the durability of pre-90's Benzes. Also, the knowledge base of service departments for those pre-90's cars has largely disappeared. It's now "replace the component that the computer tells you to replace" and show the customer to checkout..

An analogy ... My DIL is an ER nurse and her motto is "Treat 'em and Street 'em".

All you need to do is complete it and return to MBUSA......  No
validation by a dealer needed.

Has this changed? I downloaded the form a while back and it said I had
to get the dealer to validate it.
