BBB Business Report:

While this business is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau, that does not mean it does not run a quality dealership because BBB accreditation is purely optional. In fact, the review on this Monterey dealership is that it gets a grade of A-. This appears to be a pretty solid score. Most notably, there are no consumer complaints filed against Mercedes-Benz of Monterey, and it only lost some points because it apparently either did not cooperate with the BBB in a background information request or has information unverified by the BBB.
