Failure Date: 02/01/2014

The very day I brought my car home from a used car purchase, the moment I pulled in my driveway to park, the message center said, " sos service not activated" in a warning in the center cluster. It wouldn't go away and I didn't know what to do, so I pushed the sos button and mb asked me, " what is your emergency ?" I appologized and explained that I had received a warning message on my dash. They ended the call and I turned off the car. I restarted the car and the warning went away. This was on Feb 1, 2018 at 4:38 p. M.
