Frequently Asked Questions

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on in a 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQB?

• Confirm any dashboard message or alert — modern EVs often show context alongside the light.
• Check the charging connection: ensure the plug is fully seated and the cable/charger shows no fault.

• Look for recent software update prompts; some alerts follow pending updates or resets.
• If in doubt, bring the vehicle to Park Place Motorcars Fort Worth for a factory-level scan — warranty repairs must be performed at a certified dealership for coverage.
