From the linked reddit post, a trademark attorney:

> In many cases, you're right in that the TM or (R) is superfluous. No one, for example, is going to be able to argue they didn't know McDonald's or Coca Cola are trademarks for their respective companies, so whether those two are really marked with TM or (R) doesn't matter much.

Mercedes isn't adding the symbol after "Mercedes-Benz", but after PRE-SAFE, which is not something a reasonable person would always associate with them.
