Stalled at 5,960 miles!!!

We bought the SUV in May and it stalled in the middle of the road at 5,960 miles. Mercedes Me Connect took a while to connect me to a live person after several tries. The tow truck finally arrived after 3 hours. The RED message on my dashboard screen said stop the vehicle for there was danger of overheating; that something was broken with the 48 volt hybrid system. I lost power very shortly then. Jeff, a service advisor from MB of El Paso said that the soonest they can look into it would probably be in 2 weeks. It will be 1 week tomorrow and I have not heard from the El Paso dealership. Vehicle loaners from the dealership were unavailable till May next year. Beware, Mercedes Benz is definitely NOT "nothing but the best".

Wiper blade shudder the worst but there’s more

2022 GLE350 has been to service 4 times with no resolve for wiper shudder and noise. Mercedes service has replaced blades 3 times. Only Bosch blades are available. They’ve detailed windshield with every cleaning compound possible including Bon Ami. We’ve tried silicone as well as WD40, RainX on blades without improvement. Nothing works to correct skipping and shuddering of the blades. Mercedes claims they’ve done all they can. Corporate is aware of this apparently systemic issue. I believe it is an alignment problem but again Mercedes says it’s not mechanical. In a rainstorm the blades make incredible noise. They skip shudder increase in speed and slow with a mind of their own. After owning it for just 90 days we are seriously considering trading the car. Very disappointing. Few people buy a car in the rain. But I’d advise you test blades before purchasing a GLE. The technology is superior but tripling the access points with an overly sensitive touchpad make any movement to a cup holder or steering wheel a chance of changing all your settings. The steering wheel actually blocks the instrument panel. The button to disengage fuel saving shutdown is directly next to start button. Easy to engage start button when driving. The shift lever is moved to the column. Feels and looks like a turn signal. Easy to confuse. And the car has more warning sounds than an airline in a spin. As former Naval Aviator I found mastering and using the technology challenging and distracting. But car looks good and drives well.

Bought 2021 GLE for my wife. We've owned a couple of MB's and many Lexus models. We test drove the Q7, Genesis GV80 and the Lexus RX. Wife had been driving an Audi Q5 and loved it. But when she got behind the wheel of the GLE, it was all over. Ride, fit & finish, interface, materials, etc just totally outclassed the competition. Only car I've ever bought where we paid full-price --cheerfully. Drive this one and you'll be convinced. After 12,000 miles happy to report no problems or defects. Gas mileage is a bit lower than we'd hoped for but other than that remain very pleased.

I cross-shopped Porsche, BMW, Audi & Volvo when I was shopping and NOTHING came close to the build quality, beauty and features the GLE offers. I opted for the 350 and find it's plenty of power. Everyone recommends the 450 because it's more power, but when is enough, enough? I've heard 80% of buyers opt for the 350 so don't feel bad just because a bunch of car reviewers always want the top spec. I came to Mercedes from Tesla. This is the 3rd Mercedes I've owned and came back for build quality and an infotainment/tech system that puts everyone else to shame. No my Mercedes doesn't fart, Tesla, but it gives me a great, warm seat massage. I have no regrets and constantly try to find excuses to go drive somewhere. It's a beautiful thing.

Extra leg room is improved. Headlights are the best. I am very pleased Mercedes went away from run flat tires. They are noisy, rough, and cannot be repaired. Fit and finish is excellent. Drives great!
