Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML550 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML550? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Mercedes-Benz ML550 battery, and so can frequent short drives.

Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty ML550) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Mercedes-Benz ML550 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
