That's nuts. My dealer requires ID and proof of ownership and they have to
match. That’s on the form from MBUSA that they have to fill out that gets

And that’s bogus, as the dealer should have just ordered a new key with proof

with ceilings too low for a tow truck. He found a locksmith to repair the
