Mercedes helps customers to cope with typhoon's effects

Typhoon Fitow has left after hitting East China earlier this month, and through it all, Mercedes-Benz has been with its customers, according to the company.

In the aftermath of Fitow, the automaker together with its authorized dealer partners established after-sales and financing programs to directly support Mercedes-Benz or smart owners whose vehicles were damaged or destroyed as a result of flooding.

"The last thing in this critical time our customers should have to worry about is how to repair or replace their vehicles," said Nicholas Speeks, president and CEO of Beijing Mercedes-Benz Sales Service Co Ltd.
