We specialize in European vehicles, including the full Mercedes-Benz lineup. That focus allows us to diagnose issues correctly and complete repairs without unnecessary trial and error.

Mercedes-Benz Services We Provide
Executive Automotive provides complete Mercedes-Benz auto repair and service, covering routine maintenance, diagnostics, and major mechanical work. We service newer vehicles, older models, and classic Mercedes-Benz vehicles.
Routine maintenance includes oil changes using Mercedes-Benz-approved synthetic oil, brake service, fluid exchanges, tire rotations, and factory-recommended Service A and Service B intervals. Staying on schedule helps maintain system performance and reduce the likelihood of larger repairs.
Diagnostics are a key part of Mercedes-Benz repair. If your Mercedes-Benz check engine light comes on, we use Mercedes-Benz-specific diagnostic tools to read fault codes and identify the source of the problem before making repairs.
We also perform major repairs, including Mercedes-Benz transmission repair, engine work, steering and suspension service, exhaust repair, and heating and cooling system service. We service C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, GLE, GLC, G-Wagon, SL-Class, Sprinter vans, and older Mercedes-Benz models. We also service other European makes, including BMW and Audi.

Why Choose an Independent Mercedes-Benz Repair Shop
An independent Mercedes-Benz repair shop offers the same diagnostic capability and parts quality as a dealership, often with more direct access to the technician working on your vehicle. As a Mercedes-Benz service center alternative, Executive Automotive focuses specifically on European vehicles, so your car is serviced by technicians who work on these systems every day, not a general shop covering a wide range of makes.
Independent service also typically comes with lower labor rates than dealership pricing. That difference can make it easier to stay on schedule with routine maintenance and manage the cost of more involved repairs over time, without changing the standard of parts or procedures used on your vehicle.
Your warranty remains valid when you choose an independent shop, as long as proper parts and manufacturer procedures are followed. This is protected under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which allows you to service your Mercedes-Benz outside the dealership network.
Executive Automotive has served Santa Fe since 1993, and many customers return for ongoing service year after year. That continuity matters when your vehicle benefits from a shop that understands its maintenance history. Learn more about our approach to independent European auto repair.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mercedes-Benz Service
How much does a Mercedes-Benz oil change cost?
A Mercedes-Benz oil change at an independent shop generally runs between $150 and $300, depending on the model, engine, and oil specification. Certain specialty Mercedes-Benz models, including AMG variants and some diesel engines, may cost more due to larger oil capacities and specific synthetic oil requirements. Labor time can also vary by model, so an exact estimate depends on your vehicle.
What is included in Mercedes-Benz Service A and Service B?
Service A includes a synthetic oil change, fluid level checks, tire inflation, brake inspection, and a maintenance counter reset. Service B includes everything in Service A, plus a cabin air filter replacement, a brake fluid exchange, and additional inspections per the Mercedes-Benz schedule. For a full breakdown, see our guide to Service A and Service B differences.
Will independent service void my Mercedes-Benz warranty?
No. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protects your right to use a qualified independent shop without losing warranty coverage, as long as proper parts and manufacturer procedures are followed.
How do I know when my Mercedes-Benz needs service?
Mercedes-Benz vehicles use the ASSYST or Flexible Service System to track maintenance intervals based on driving conditions. Dashboard messages, warning lights, or a wrench icon indicate when service is due. In general, Service A occurs around 10,000 miles or one year, and Service B occurs around 20,000 miles or two years. If a warning light appears, contact us for an appointment.
What Mercedes-Benz models does Executive Automotive service?
We service the full Mercedes-Benz lineup, including C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, GLE, GLC, G-Wagon, SL-Class, and Sprinter vans. Our technicians work on both gas and diesel models and are familiar with the systems used across different generations. We also work on older and classic Mercedes-Benz vehicles that require more specialized knowledge, diagnostics, and parts sourcing. This allows you to maintain multiple Mercedes-Benz vehicles in one place with a consistent service approach.
