Companies like Mercedes have firms all over the world to deal with this kind of stuff and ignoring them will be the quickest way to learn a very expensive lesson.
you are fighting your own copyrights battles all the time, same coin, different side.
btw, how about saying a trade/copyrighted word in a video ? like coca cola or Tom Cruise.. i could see that being a problem as well.
