What a ripoff, they are forcing me to refill my left and right turns even though only my right turns are empty

left and right, are each a seperate subscrition, 1 whole turn is using both of those at once.

That's a safety hazard... Which means the brake subscription plan isn't optional. It's mandatory. And you can only use the Mercedes authorized brake pads, as third party brakes would present a safety hazard and are thus illegal. Failure to remain on the Mercedes Safe Subscription package will result in the forfeiture of you vehicle.

Edit: put a brake on breaks

I am surprised there is no DRM "approved" OEM brake pads. You already have to plug your brake pads in for the brake pad wear sensor for some cars. Wouldn't be a stretch to run another wire and have a chip to identify itself so you can "keep yourself safe" by using OEM pads.

At least you got the windshield package. Most other cars come with the webcam view only. Pretty laggy.
