Was very excited to purchase a 2024 GLC 300 that looks gorgeous inside and out. However, the vehicle kept displaying active stop and active steering error messages. Vehicle returned to dealership three weeks after delivery. Mercedes ordered new steering column, same error messages. Finally, after two months at service department, Mercedes bought vehicle and we swapped for another GLC 300. Within days, same problem. Returned to dealership within two weeks of taking delivery of new GLC 300. Told fix is two months away. Would not recommend at this time.

There are too many defects/quirks to list here. Needed a new drive unit(major repair) after two weeks of ownership. Car was in shop for 75 percent of the first month of ownership. This is a subpar car with sub par corporate support. Stay away, many other higher quality vehicles available at a lower price.

I had a SIX cylinder Audi s4 for 10 years. Not one problem. Wife wanted the 2023 GLC 300. After 6,000 miles it sprung an oil leak. A mechanic friend warned me about high revving German 4 cylinder turbos. I did have one in the 90's an Audi A4 which also leaked oil. Had a ton of other issues then the turbo blew up at 50k miles. Don;t do it!

GLC 350e PHEV

We we custom ordered a new 2025 GLC 350e last summer and received it in November. We were going to finance it but the dealership talked us into leasing it instead so we did that and so glad we did as this PHEV has had one issue after the other. Surprisingly, none of the issues are with the engine which has been perfectly fine so far. It’s nice being able to drive mainly on electric and I’ve only had to put some gas in 3 times in the last 5 months or so. Power is adequate but by no means is it fast, even when the gas engine kicks on. All of our issues stem from the brakes and the interior build quality, which I thought was supposed to be MB’s specialty. When we took it for its first test drive, there was a horrible rattle/buzz coming from the infotainment screen. Had to bring it in a few weeks later to get that fixed. Then there was a loud rattle coming from behind the dash - had to bring it in again. Then another time for excessively squeaking brakes, volume issues with the infotainment, and most recently, the sunroof switch stopped working. You get the picture. Let’s just say I’d be super upset if we actually went through and financed this. At least we know we can just return this at the end of the lease.

My car is 4 months old and in the shop for the second time for the same check engine light. 1st time in the shop for 7 days. Had it back a week and then the check engine light appeared again. This time it remains in the shop and it has been there over 9 days. Time to replace with a reliable vehicle.
