AEM Incentive

Current and Former Owners and Lessees of a Subject Vehicle may be eligible for a Payment Check.

To Claim Payment, You Must Submit a timely and valid Claim by September 30, 2026.

As part of a settlement between Mercedes-Benz and a coalition of state attorneys general regarding the design, manufacture, import, marketing, offer, sale, or lease of your vehicle, Mercedes-Benz is offering a payment to owners or lessees of $2,000 to incentivize installations of the Approved Emission Modification (“AEM”).

Specifically, if you currently own or lease, or previously owned or leased a Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC II diesel vehicle or a Sprinter BlueTEC II diesel vehicle (both Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner-branded Sprinter diesel vehicles) (see FAQ 2 for a list of eligible “Subject Vehicles”) that was registered in the United States, you may be eligible for a payment of $2,000 if you had an AEM installed on your Subject Vehicle on or after August 1, 2023, or if you have an AEM installed on your Subject Vehicle on or before August 31, 2026. Installation is available free of charge to you, and you will receive an Extended Modification Warranty after installation of the AEM.
