    www.youcanic.c... Mercedes-Benz Pre-Safe Functions Limited feature, a critical component of the brand's commitment to passenger safety.
    Overview of Mercedes-Benz Pre-Safe System:
    The Pre-Safe system, introduced by Mercedes-Benz, is a pioneering advance in car safety technology. It's designed to anticipate and prepare the vehicle for an imminent crash before it occurs. This system is a prime example of proactive safety measures, moving beyond traditional reactive safety systems (like airbags and seatbelts that activate during a collision).
    How Pre-Safe Functions:
    Detection: The system uses a network of sensors around the vehicle, integrated with safety systems like ESP (Electronic Stability Program) and BAS (Brake Assist System). These sensors detect certain conditions that suggest an imminent collision, such as severe skidding or sudden, extreme braking.
    Activation: Once a potential collision is detected, the Pre-Safe system springs into action. It takes several precautionary measures to protect the occupants.
    Precautionary Measures: These measures can include tightening the front seat belts, adjusting the front head restraints and passenger seats to a more favorable position to reduce injury risk, closing windows and sunroof to prevent debris from entering the cabin, and even adjusting the suspension setup in models equipped with air suspension.
    Pre-Safe Functions Limited:
    The "Pre-Safe Functions Limited" message typically appears when the system encounters a limitation or fault that prevents it from functioning fully. This limitation can be due to various reasons:
    Sensor Issues: If any of the sensors are blocked (due to dirt, ice, or obstruction), malfunctioning, or damaged, the system may not operate correctly.
    System Faults: Like any sophisticated electronic system, Pre-Safe can experience technical faults or glitches that may limit its functionality.
    Maintenance and Service Needs: Regular maintenance is crucial for the proper functioning of advanced safety systems. A lack of service or overdue maintenance can lead to reduced functionality.
    Battery Voltage: Low car battery voltage can also limit the system's operation, as Pre-Safe requires adequate power to function optimally.
    Diagnosing and Resolving the Issue:
    When the "Pre-Safe Functions Limited" message is displayed, it's essential to address it promptly:
    Professional Diagnosis: A qualified technician should diagnose the system using specialized diagnostic tools to identify the exact cause of the limitation.
    Sensor Maintenance: Regular cleaning and checking of sensors can prevent functionality issues.
    Vehicle Service: Ensuring your vehicle is serviced according to Mercedes-Benz's recommended intervals is crucial for the health of all electronic systems, including Pre-Safe.
    Battery Check: Regular battery checks and maintenance can prevent power-related issues.
    Conclusion:
    The Mercedes-Benz Pre-Safe system represents a significant leap in automotive safety technology, focusing on preventing injury before a collision occurs. However, like all sophisticated systems, it requires regular maintenance and prompt attention to any issues. Understanding and maintaining the Pre-Safe system is not just about preserving a technological feature; it's about ensuring the highest safety level for you and your passengers.

    I just got this warning light come on my S63AMG 2012 model. After looking at the video, I wonder if it got triggered when my friend got in the car and moved the seat back as he’s a big guy. Thank you for the video, I’ll check what you mentioned and see if I will be able to find the problem

      @@mariahaxton6830 I didn’t do anything about it. At first, I tried to clear the fault but it wouldn’t clear and I thought I’d drive it and see if anything would change. It actually went off on its own and it’s been fine ever since.

      @@djab203 I got this message after ripping the sensor on my front bumper to change my grill😅 I try to floor it in sport and it takes years to even pick up speed it doesn’t even feel full throttle. I think i have to call dealer to see if they have the wire because online I can’t find anything for it unless it’s the full sensor box you can check yours by lifting up it passenger side fender liner on the bottom Corner there should be a sensor you can also clean the driver side sensor I was reading if it’s dirty it’ll throw the warning. Repeat the same process on the driver side where the fender liner is but you’ll find a sensor leading to your bottom grill mesh there’s like a little stick poking into it
