Mercedes-Benz ADAS calibration, module repair and programming

Find your exact vehicle Pick a Mercedes-Benz model and year before reading the technical guide.

Mercedes-Benz pioneers automotive safety with Intelligent Drive - a comprehensive ADAS platform using stereo cameras, multi-mode radar, and ultrasonic sensors for semi-autonomous driving, automated parking, and collision prevention. The flagship DRIVE PILOT system enables Level 3 conditional automation. These complex sensor arrays require factory-spec calibration after any windshield, bumper, or sensor-area repair. Core Auto Logic provides Mercedes-Benz ADAS calibration, module programming, and electronic diagnostics across the DFW metroplex.
