I leased a new 2025 GLC 300 AWD in October 2024, securing it while in a boat from Germany. I leave in a mountain town, three hours from the dealer. On the first drive, the radio and computer-related parts went in and out. Then, the computer wouldn’t load-forcing me to drive without knowledge of speed, phone pairing or Mercedes emergency contact. The system was rented at dealer and on the way home it happened again. They took the car for two months, first noting the wires didn’t connect and had to be replaced. Then, after that didn’t solve the problem, they installed a new computer. To do these repairs, the car had to be taken apart. All the while, I am leasing and making payments for a car I don’t have. I now have it back and the car jumps when stopped, strange messages appear in the screen. This car is a mess and Mercedes won’t take it back as AZ Lemon Law doesn’t include leases. Ironically, the car was suppose to go to a dealer in a state that does cover leased lemons. Mercedes is hiding behind a flaw when their vehicle is not safe to drive. After 5 Mercedes, I am crushed at their treatment and driving a car I have no idea is safe. Will the airbags deploy? Will my emergency system work when needed? Is the cruise control working or will go out of control.
Great SUV with speed, handling, luxury and safety

This 2025 GLC replaced a 2017 GLC that we loved. It’s a bit bigger inside and has a lot of electronics. The handling is great, the pickup is very quick, it’s luxurious and the safety systems are reassuring. Still learning the MBUX system but voice commands seem to work well. So far, I love the GLC300

New GLC-300 -AMG Line - horrible experience

The 2025 GLC-300 that was purchased in Dec 2024 has been the worst new car experience that I have had in over 30 years of purchasing vehicles. The vehicle has a gear grinding sound when the car is put in reverse and backing up and the local Mercedes service department cannot or will not look further into it. Also the MBUX infotainment and driver screens went completely black while driving the vehicle in heavy interstate traffic. A serious safety issue in my opinion that the Mercedes service department shrugs off as just needing a software update and that it can possibly occur again. I in good faith cannot recommend this car to anyone. Will never buy a Mercedes again with the issues that have occurred and the lack of service from the Mercedes dealership. I definitely thought Mercedes was supposed to be more customer service driven. Not in this case.

Interesting to read the other reviews. Guess I got lucky (so far) with my 2025 GLC 300 4matic with Exclusive trim. Have not had a single issue, drives relative smoothly and quietly and fuel economy has been good. Controls could be a little better, haptic and capacitors aren’t great for hvac and radio. Wife came out of x5 and it’s not as nice, but it was significantly less expensive and fit our desire to downsize. Tried new x3 but way too ugly inside.
I could cry, I hate this car.

I loved my 2018 GLC300, everything about it was perfect, the thigh support, it was quiet, it had pep. I loved it so much I decided to upgrade to the 2025 so that I could have more safety features. IT IS HORRIBLE! The constant "camera clicking" is dangerous, it is very loud and it is very distracting. My 2018 back up camera did not make a sound. Then there is the "hybrid", meaning a battery in the back, when the car idols it starts making a horrible sound and vibration through out the entire vehicle. ALL of this is dangerous as it is so distracting trying to figure out if the car has a serious problem or not while driving. If there is a "turbo" in this model it is no where near as good as the 2018. It feels like a cheap four cylinder. The non stop clicking and grinding was so noticeable that my friend commented "Is that your car? What is wrong with it? I couldn't stand that". Then there is "my Mercedes", you can't have a conversation in the car without her listening andresponding EVEN THOUGH I SET IT UP TO SAY "HEY MERCEDES" in order for her to respond. She has blacked out my screen with directions sending me to God knows where and made me miss my exit as she deleted what I had running on the screen. Again dangerous trying to drive on a highway and fix what she did! She still is listening to everything we say-even though she is supposed to be off until I say "Hey Mercedes"-very, very creepy and dangerous! The thigh support-horrible compared to the 2018. It has the worst "off gassing" of any car I have ever owned. I really do hate this car!

Purchased car new in March 2025, car now has 2365miles. MBUX System randomly changes display on Main Display also more frequently changes display settings on Drivers display. Most days it likes me and gives a welcome greeting other days it does not and says nothing. Rear hatch would only close 6 inches at a time after 5 tries I was able to manually latch it. Next time it opened it worked without issue. Two days later entire MBUX System dies. Dealer could not get it to work and has to open a case with MB to find out how to fix the system, Service person advises that it may take 3+ weeks to resolve, meantime I am in a loaner car. I am very concerned that there may be an electrical issue with the car that will never be completely resolved.
