Mercedes Expands Anti-Counterfeiting Measures After 1.8M Illegal Parts Seized In 2021
Car parts, especially those intended for premium vehicles, and specifically those made by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), can be expensive. So it might be tempting to jump on a cheap part when you find one online. Mercedes is warning, though, that you might not want to.
The automaker reports that in 2021 alone, authorities seized more than 1.86 million counterfeit Mercedes-Benz products in more than 650 raids. That’s an increase of six percent over the previous year.
