Item 1112(b) of Regulation AB. Significant Obligors of Pool Assets - Financial Information.

Nothing to report.

Item 1114(b)(2) of Regulation AB. Credit Enhancement and Other Support, Except for Certain Derivatives

Item 1117 of Regulation AB. Legal Proceedings.

There are no legal proceedings pending, or any proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental

authorities, against the Sponsor, the Depositor, U.S. Bank National Association (the "Indenture Trustee"),
Wilmington Trust Company (the "Owner Trustee"), the Issuing Entity, or any property thereof, that are material to
holders of the Asset Backed Notes issued by the Issuing Entity (the "Notes").

Item 1119 of Regulation AB. Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

The Depositor is an affiliate of Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC ("MBFS"), which acts as

Sponsor, Servicer and Administrator, in that MBFS is the sole equity member of the Depositor.

The Sponsor acted as originator (as contemplated by Item 1110 of Regulation AB) of the receivables

owned by the Issuing Entity and services the receivables. The Sponsor is the sole equity member of the Depositor.
The Issuing Entity issued the Mercedes-Benz Auto Receivables Trust 2011-1 asset backed certificates to the
Depositor and through this issuance, the Depositor has acquired a 100% ownership interest in the Issuing Entity;
therefore, the Issuing Entity is an affiliated party of the Depositor and, indirectly, of the Sponsor.

There are no significant obligors, external enhancement or support providers, or other material parties

related to the Notes.

In addition, there are no business relationships, agreements, arrangements, transactions or understandings

outside the ordinary course of business or on terms other than would be obtained in an arm's length transaction with
an unrelated party, apart from this asset-backed securities transaction involving the issuance of the Notes by the
Issuing Entity, between the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Issuing Entity and any of the parties, or affiliates of such
parties, mentioned in this Item.

Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

Each of the Sponsor, in its capacity as Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee (together with the Sponsor in its

capacity as Servicer, each, a "Servicing Participant") has been identified by the registrant as a party participating in the servicing function during the reporting period with respect to the pool assets held by the Issuing Entity. Each Servicing Participant has completed a report on an assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to such Servicing Participant (each, a "Report on Assessment") as of December 31, ~~2012~~ 2013 and for the reporting period, which Reports on Assessment are attached as Exhibits 33.1 and 33.2 to this report on Form 10-K. In addition, each Servicing Participant has provided an attestation report (each, an "Attestation Report") by a registered independent public accounting firm on its Report on Assessment. The Attestation Reports are attached as Exhibits 34.1 and 34.2

{00035852.DOC}

~~SF1~~to this ~~1652472v~~reort on Form 10-K.2 The Report of Assessment prepared by the Indenture Trustee and the Attestation Report provided by the Indenture Trustee did not identify any material instances of noncompliance with the servicing criteria applicable to the Indenture Trustee. The Report of Assessment prepared by the Servicer and the Attestation Report provided by the Servicer identified the following instance of noncompliance: *

With respect to ~~this~~servicing ~~report~~criterion on1122 ~~Form~~(d)(4)(vii), ~~10-K. Neither~~certain ~~the~~loss mitigation ~~Indenture~~or ~~Trustee's~~recovery ~~Report~~actions on were ~~Assessment~~not ~~nor~~initiated, ~~the~~conducted ~~Indenture~~and ~~Trustee's~~concluded ~~Attestation~~in ~~Report~~accordance ~~has~~with ~~identified~~time frames ~~any~~or ~~material~~other ~~instance~~ requirements ofestablished ~~noncompliance~~by ~~with~~ the ~~servicing~~transaction ~~criteria applicable to the Indenture Trustee~~agreements.

Nevertheless, ~~except~~MBFS ~~that:~~is exploring procedural and policy changes to achieve full compliance with these requirements.

With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(3)(i)(A), certain reports to investors, including those to be filed with the Commission, were not filed in accordance with time frames and other terms set forth in the transaction agreements.

With respect to servicing criterion 1122 (d)(4)(viii), certain records describing the Servicer's activities in monitoring delinquent pool assets were not maintained as specified in the transaction agreements.

MBFS believes that distributions to the security holders were not materially impacted as a result of the material instances of noncompliance noted above. Nevertheless, MBFS is exploring procedural and policy changes to achieve full compliance with these requirements.
