NASFT Mercedes Benz TRP D1 Work Around
Mercedes Benz TRP Order Form
If you are a NASFT shop and need to fill out a Mercedes-Benz TRP D1 Form, there is a work around to get this to work. What happens is when entering a VIN it will give you a note that pops up. It will say “More information for Mercedes Benz. It looks like this:
After that, if you attempt to enter the zip code from the dealership you are trying to submit your Mercedes Benz TRP D1 Form, you may see this error come up. You will not be able to choose a dealer. Anything you try, it will not populate a dealer. Those errors will look like this:
The only work around, that NASFT does not tell you is to enter a VIN that is less that a few years old. You can also use a previous VIN that has worked in the past. This will allow you to choose the dealer you are submitting your Mercedes Benz TRP D1 form to.
Once that dealer is selected, you can now change the VIN back to the one you are submitting. Personally, I did not click on the ‘Decode’ button and made sure all of the info in the vehicle selection boxes were the same. It may still populate ok, I didn’t want to have to go though this all again if it didn’t work.
