Great car, ... when it worked

2014 GL 350 was a great suv when it worked, could not find a better SUV, previously had a 2008 GL320, but met up with a deer and totaled the car. Barely noticed any impact and all occupants were safe. The 2014 GL cost $46 K in repairs (under MB extended warranty) in 6 years. Once covid hit in 2020 we drove less, but still had numerous visits to the service dept. diesel emissions, soot sensors, DEF heating tank, airmatic suspension, and proximity sensors were the main issue. The oil level in the engine was always over full, a complaint I made to the dealer since 2018. He said it occurs because they do not drain the oil pan , rather suck the oil out thru the dipstick. Then fill it with the amount of oil suggested. Later I discovered through an independent that the over fill was diesel fuel seeping into the oil pan. In the last few months, 4 hours of driving would add 1 liter of diesel fuel to the oil pan. Had to trade the car. Lost faith in the dealership service dept and purchased an X7.

Gl is not an SUV!

i don't understand why Edmunds keep placing this vehicle on the first place among luxurious SUVs. I have followed Edmunds advice and had one for a year. I may say with full responsibility that 1) GL is not a real SUV, it is a crossover. On a rough road it fails. 2) The cockpit has a low ceiling, toll person can't get in without bending neck 3) reliability is low, within less than a year I had to go to dealer for repairs twice, one of them could have been quite expensive, if not under warranty. 4) Among all bells and whistles just a few make sense, others look attractive for a regular customer but are useless. 5) third raw is for two 3-years old only, besides an adult would have a hard time to get there. And so on... Anyway, after approximately a year i have traded it in to Lexus LX-570. Yes, this thing has less bells and whistles, but it is a real SUV. Yes, its voice recognition system sucks and navigation system is not as good as MB GL. But if you are about to purchase a luxurious SUV, go anywhere type, do not make a mistake being attracted by MB logo on a hood.

I have put 60,000 miles on this vehicle with zero problems. This SUV, is a beast! It's big, comfortable, luxurious and reliable. I can go almost 700 miles per tank on the freeway with plenty of torque and power. I have towed up to 5600 pounds with no problems whatsoever. One of the most comfortable rides available on any large SUV. The options to list on this vehicle or limitless, I suggest getting the massage seats!

This was my first Mercedes Benz product I’ve ever purchased. I bought it in December 2013 and have been pleased with it all through my ownership experience. I sold it last year and purchased a neW 2022 Mercedes GLS. It rode so comfortably on all roads even gravel, in fact you could barely hear the gravel noise inside the cabin. I always serviced my GL at Mercedes Benz of Buckhead which is also where we bought it. They go above and beyond to take care of their customers. Overall I think it was well worth the price tag as I’ve had 0 issues of any kind and it had 155,000 miles when I sold it. Very reliable ride in my ownership experience! Maintenance costs aren’t that bad either. Very comparable to our Lexus’ we’ve had over the years. This was my first and certainly not my last!
