I had what i thought was a minor oil leak which wound up replacing the engine after almost 40 days, the deal was great but the manufacturer doesn’t care or communicate with their customers. Arbitration is next because of the apathy that MB USA. Sad
Impressive Mercedes SUV.

This is vehicle going to raise the bar for this segment. The interior is beautiful. Quality of build is impressive. MB did a great job with the redesign on the interior and makes you feel like you're not longer sitting inside a dated luxury car that your dentist would drive. Overall impressive performance. The drive modes, the handling, all of it feels more like a car than an SUV.

The GLC300 is a beautiful SUV inside and out. The interior is simple gorgeous with quality materials. I've shuttled 5 adults in the car comfortably with a smaller adult in the center back. Living in Colorado, the GLC has been up in the mountains numerous time including snowy roads over 12,000 ft elevation through the route 70 Eisenhower tunnel. Performance from the paired 9-speed trans with the turbo 2.0 engine is outstanding. Based the E-Class chassis, it is described as the most affordable E-Class you can buy. The GLC handles very, very well providing a civilized ride. I've had numerous sports cars including a track car and the GLC is a very satisfying car to drive through twisty mountain road or on the highway. I've been very surprised by the mileage and regularly see it over 30mpg. It is rated to be 28mpg/hwy. I simply love my time spent driving this SUV. Well done MB, it is a winner! Update: After 10 months of ownership, I absolutely love this SUV! The mileage has gone up a bit and have a pic showing at 113 miles, 39.2 mpg @ 62 mph avg.. WOW! An important note to all regarding a suspension issue that has been discussed on various message boards that is simply fixed with a software update by the dealer and tire pressure change. When driving 60-70 mph over seams or bumps in the highway, the suspension will oscillate an is felt through the steering wheel. My SUV experienced this behavior after setting tire pressures in single digit weather and with warming weather, the tire pressure increased 4-6 lbs above spec. Dropping the tire pressure to spec largely fixed this issue, but was still present under certain conditions. When the dealer applied the SW update, which controls the electronic dampening on the shocks, the issue is fully resolved. BTW - I was the first person to identify this issue to the dealer, so not widely experienced by GLC 300 owners. Good on MB to listening and developing a simple and easy fix.

Very bad experience with Mercedes GLC 300 !!!We purchased a new Mercedes GLC 300 from Mercedes bens of El Cajon CA 92020 on April 29th 2017. It's only a half year time, Now the sound simplifier is not work, the dealer service told us we have to pay $1800 to repair out of pocket. It should be covered under warranty. But the dealer said there is leak from the trunk cause the damage so the warranty doesn't cover!There must be a design deficiency. It doesn't make sense the trunk is leaking!!! What a car! What a bad service!

Does the Important Stuff Well...

After 8 months, and 9K miles, I’m pleased to share that the GLC300 does most things very well. It is clearly a well-engineered machine that translates into an easy and satisfying driving experience. The 2.0, 4 cylinder turbo provides plenty of scoot when needed yet is refined in daily use, although MPG falls a bit short of expectations. While the ride is firmer with the standard suspension and 18” wheels than my personal preference, it certainly is not harsh, and holds the road well for more aggressive driving. The interior is a nice place to spend time, and exudes simple elegance with very comfortable front seats, great visibility, and a quiet cabin. The rear seats are very firm, and offer no adjustments, but with generous leg and head room, it is fine for occasional passengers. The rear storage with the seats up is on the small side for its class, however there is a large under floor rear compartment that compensates, providing usable and convenient storage. The misses with this vehicle for me relate to some of the technology. The MB “infotainment/navigation” system feels quite dated, and is awkward to use, although the audio quality from the upgraded sound system is very good. It is unimaginable that Apple Car Play and Android Auto are missing in a 2017 vehicle, yet it is not available. The MB app offers limited functionality compared to the competition, and seems to have about a 50% success rate in connecting to the vehicle. Finally, the optional “parktronic” parking assist system seldom successfully identifies an available parking space, and when it does, the system is difficult to use…save your money on this one. On the positive side, the optional “distronic plus” cruise control with steering assist is wonderful in stop and go traffic for semi-autonomous driving, and is convenient on the open highway as well. This is truly a game changer for those with frequent commutes in heavy traffic! The other safety related technology features (brake hold, blind spot warning, lane keeping assist, emergency braking) all seem to work well. This all said, the styling, performance, comfort and overall driving experience make the GLC a joy to own, and I look forward to driving it every day.
