2017 GLE 350 3.5L V6 engine failed on 22K miles

My 2017 MB GLE 350 3.5L V6 4MATIC engine failed on 22k Miles only – it makes ticking noises and some metal debris were found on oil filter, and the local dealer suggested to replace the engine – in the case the car has been driven normally and oil changes were done on the normal schedules. Since it has passed Mfr warranty we have to pay big money to solve the vital issue, which means we have a big loss on the investment. So the comment is: the car isn’t a reliable one and isn’t a valuable long-time investment for sure. Trying to switch to a more reliable Japanese Brands (e.g. Lexus) soon for a long-term satisfaction and money worth.

We stumbled upon this 2017 GLE AMG 43 fully loaded with every option except designo interior and B&O sound. The Active Curve is wonderful. Added a RennTech tune to this and it is a rocket that has great acceleration and handling for much less than the AMG 63 sibling...Insurance costs are also less.

I tow my 23foot boat and it pulls it off the ramp like a champ

I love everything about my GLE-350 from the exterior to the interior. It's a very nice and easy ride with all of the nice safety features from Blind spot assist to Lane departure assist 360°surrounding view camera, and folding side mirrors.

Very elegant car overall. The seat and all the tech features are nice. Only it is a little heavy to drive.
