EQS pads generate alot of dust. If you drive occasionally, it will 100% squeak until you burn the dust off. Not a reliable indicator of pad wear on these cars. Keep in mind, my EQS SUV is at 45K miles with original pads that passed the 40K service.

You didn’t have it inspected by AutoVin? I had mine inspected before dropping it off.

That’s almost 6K neg depreciation… stay tuned!
If dealer was wise enough to use some/all rebates as working cash, the deal should be good.
Wouldn’t FS still need to green light it?
oh my bad for not clarifying, the working cash would only work for one-pays

A cautionary tale regarding the loyalty discount. Apparently Mercedes doesn’t define loyalty the same way most of us do - so in our case because our lease ends 4/2 and the loyalty “program” ends 3/31, we are apparently not loyal even though we’re trying to pull ahead into a new EQE right now.
So keep that in mind if you’re a few months out from your lease end, that exciting deal quote you receive may evaporate quickly.
No problem, we can show our loyalty in the same way by leasing another brand when this car is due for return.

Wouldn’t you be eligible for loyalty on 11/1 then, just a one month delay?
I wasn’t given a clear answer on that from the dealers. The program may not be extended is what I was told. I can’t imagine they will get more conservative with programs at the end of the year, especially with cars no one in their right mind would pay retail for, but I’ll give it a try again next month and see.

I believe the loyalty/reignite program has been around for years so highly doubt it will get killed anytime soon. If you refer to the lease incentives on the EQS this month, that can always change drastically month to month…
You can’t be upset when you don’t qualify for a program. They have to set some guidelines / boundaries. Until September, the cut-off was leases maturing on or before December 31, 2024.

Is this a good deal for a 2024 MB EQS AMG

They say I am not eligible for MSD due to my low rate. Is that true?
Do 24/7.5 months. Much better rate
Seems like Amex is missing, if you can get that too

I had squeaking on both of my 580 suvs, 1 of them got the front rotors and pads replaced and the other got all 4 rotors and pads replaced. Now squeaking is gone on both of them.

Just checked my EQS that I thought I leased on 4/1 but the end of lease date is 3/31. I guess this means I’m eligible for loyalty/conquest/pull ahead.
I have a lot of damage to my car including curb rash and a broker front glass plate plus a few minor things here and there.
If I do the autovin pre-inspection, do they share that info with MB? Ideally, I’d like to be the only one to have access to this info on the off chance MB doesn’t catch some of the issues.
