GLE 350 4 MOTION

I loved this car when I first saw it, but after owning it for about 2 months it started to have issues. After a call or two to the service department they asked me to bring it in, after 5-6 attempts to fix the problems and 2 months in the shop I finally had enough confidence in the car to just drive it. It is beautiful, I get a lot of compliments. It does not do good in cold/icy weather- and does not handle well is all I’m gonna say. It will hydroplane and also we don’t trust it in the snow and Ice even though it’s all wheel drive. The weather changed here before they completed the repair to the AC that wasn’t working, so I guess I will find out when summer rolls around again if it is really fixed. they wound up having the change my steering wheel to stop the error codes. The customer service is beyond excellent, but the car leaves a lot to be desired. I actually went and leased a toyota that I tend to favor for reliability.

Wind noise

Annoying wind noise from driver, passenger windows, rattling noise in headliner, couldn't drive it on freeway with the wind noise, dealer and Mercedes engineers changed many parts couldn't solve the problem, drove another 3 gles they all have similar or worse wind noise, Mercedes said this Annoying wind noise is normal, and there's no fix at this time I'll have to trade it with something that doesn't have wind noise. I don't recommend buying any gle since all have this problem.

Quiet and Comfortable Ride

Very quiet cabin. The surround sound audio is good but the bass is weak even at +10. Acceleration is slow in e-mode, but that’s not surprising. The paddle shifters are handy if you want to get a bit more power going up a hill. Re. Everything else, it’s a Mercedes and the luxury you expect is precisely what you get.

Quirky car for $90k

I bought my GLE 450e one year and 25,000 miles ago. This was my first MB vehicle. I spent $2k on the Driver's Assistance package but shut it off early in my relationship with the car. The tech is intended for reducing driving stress by reading speed limit signs and adapting speed on corners. While driving in heavy, fast traffic, the car abruptly dropped from 70 mph to 40 mph after misreading the interstate speed with a frontage road speed limit. This tech proved wholly unreliable and dangerous. When I had a loaner EQS, that same technology caused the car to rapidly accelerate on a city street after misreading a road sign for a speed limit. The "hands-free" technology is not as advertised. I must touch the steering wheel every 45 seconds to keep the alarm from flashing and the car from automatically slowing down. The driver assistance feature is not ready for prime time. Other less serious issues are how the radio volume changes as the car turns left or right. The car dumped all the washier fluid in my garage on multiple occasions, but the MB technicians could never find a reason why. I traded a 2019 Ram Limited with 100K miles that never gave me a day's concern. I regret trading the truck.

Best experience buying the car and truly the car is more than I ever could have asked for! It is beautiful sleek, unique and very bad-ass! I know, who knew such a car would have the makings of a fast car and a luxury SUV all in one! Yes please and I am in love!
