Exhibit 34.1



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Board of Directors
Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC


We have examined Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC's ("MBFS USA LLC" or the "Company")
compliance  with  the  servicing  criteria  set  forth  in  Item  1122(d)  of  the  U.S.  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission's Regulation AB for United States Consumer Automotive Retail Installment Sale Contracts
(the  "Platform")  described  in  the  accompanying  Report  on  Assessment  of  Compliance  with  Applicable
Servicing Criteria of Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC ("Management's Report") as of and for
the  year  ended  December  31,  2015,  excluding  criteria  1122(d)(1)(iii),  1122(d)(1)(iv),  1122(d)(2)(v),
1122(d)(2)(vi),  1122(d)(4)(ix),  1122(d)(4)(x),  1122(d)(4)(xi),  1122(d)(4)(xii),  1122(d)(4)(xiii),  and
1122(d)(4)(xv),  which management  has  determined  are not  applicable  to the  activities  performed by  the
Company  with  respect  to  the  Platform.    The  Platform  consists  of  the  asset-backed  transactions  and
securities defined by management in Appendix A of Management's Report. Management is responsible for
the Company's compliance with the applicable servicing criteria.  Our responsibility is to express opinion
on  the  Company's  compliance  with  the  applicable  servicing  criteria  for  the  Platform  based  on  our
examination.
Our  examination  was  conducted  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company  Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the
Company's compliance with the applicable servicing criteria for the Platform and performing such other
procedures  as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  Our  examination  included  testing  selected
asset-backed  transactions  and  securities  constituting  the  Platform  and  evaluating  whether  the  Company
performed servicing activities related to those transactions and securities in compliance with the applicable
servicing  criteria  for  the  period  covered  by  this  report.  Accordingly,  our  testing  may  not  have  included
servicing activities related to each asset-backed transaction or security constituting the Platform. Further,
our examination was not designed to detect material noncompliance that may have occurred prior to the
period  covered  by  this  report  and  that  may  have  affected  the  Company's  servicing  activities  during  the
period  covered  by  this  report.  We  believe  that  our  examination  provides  a  reasonable  basis  for  our
opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company's compliance with the
applicable servicing criteria.
As  described  in  Management's  Report,  the  Company  engaged  various  vendors  to  perform  servicing
activities  with  respect  to  criteria  1122(d)(2)(i),  1122(d)(4)(i),  1122(d)(4)(ii)  and  1122(d)(4)(viii).  The
Company  determined  that  each  vendor  is  not  considered  a  "servicer,"  as  that  term  is  defined  in  Item
1101(j) of Regulation AB, and therefore, the Company is assuming responsibility for compliance with such
servicing criteria applicable to each vendor's servicing activities. In accordance with Regulation AB and its

related  interpretations,  the  requirement  for  management  to  assess  compliance  with  the  servicing  criteria
applicable  to  a  vendor's  activities  is  satisfied  if  the  Company  has  instituted  policies  and  procedures  to
monitor  whether  such  vendor's  activities  comply  in  all  material  respects  with  such  criteria.  Compliance
with the applicable servicing criteria is achieved if those policies and procedures are designed to provide
reasonable  assurance  that  such  vendor's  activities  comply  with  such  criteria  and  those  policies  and
procedures  are  operating  effectively  for  the  period  covered  by  Management's  Report.  Our  examination
does  not  provide  a  legal  determination  of  whether  a  vendor  is  or  is  not  considered  a  servicer,  and
therefore, on whether the Company, in its Management Report, is eligible to elect to take responsibility for
assessing compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor's servicing activities.
Our  examination  disclosed  the  following  material  noncompliance  with  1122(d)(4)(vii)  applicable  to  the
Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 for the Platform.
1.

With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(4)(vii), MBFS USA LLC failed to send a post-repo notice
within two days or repossession of a vehicle for one account.
In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described in the preceding paragraph, Mercedes-
Benz Financial Services USA LLC complied, in all material respects, with the aforementioned applicable
servicing  criteria  as  of  and  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2015  for  the  United  States  Consumer
Automotive Retail Installment Sales Contracts.
The information included in the Management Response section of Appendix B of Management's Report is
presented by the Company to provide additional information and is not a part of the Company's servicing
criteria. The information in the Management Response section of Appendix B has not been subject to the
procedures applied in the examination of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, and accordingly, we
express no opinion on it.
