Used 2014 Mercedes-Benz M-Class Consumer Reviews

A Classic great road car

Solid, beautiful, luxurious, quiet, efficient. Little hard to get in and out of, as it sits high, even with running board. Love the ride and handling. Owned it two years and loving it still!

2014 ML350 Mercedes Benz

buying used if you find the one you like that has been taken care of makes a lot of sense. Mine was 2 years old, 23,900 miles and looks and drives showroom new, but i only paid $36,900 for a car that was over $55,000 when it first sold. A little over two years later and this car just gets better and better. Best overall Mercedes we have ever owned.

200,00K and still as good as new

30 miles per gal on freeway at 70 mph. Long distance traveling is smooth and relaxing with very quiet and comfortable ride. Rear fold down seats makes it large enough for sleeping. Very capable four-wheel drive in snow. Wouldn’t necessarily take this off-roading though. 6 years and 200,000 miles and still drives and looks like the day I bought it.

Worst car i ever had

With only 139000 miles car began to have terrible problems. Problems that i had never heard of. The sensors in the engine failed and as a result motor oil leaked up the wire and into the computer. To repair they had to drop the engine and replace all the wires and the computer which i had to wait for them to get. Took a long long time and cost $9000 dollars. My other option would have been to junk the car. Was unsaleable if not repaired. After being repaired drove it for two weeks and started making a loud noise. Attempted to drive it back to dealership one mile away and konked out before i got to the end of my street. Had to have it towed. They Said it back fired in the engine and blew up the intake manifold. In My experience cars backfire through the tail pipe and make a loud noise. Nothing more. Cost me another $1000 plus. At this point all i wanted to do was get rid of the car fearing an ongoing series of further problems. All they kept saying was “the car is 10 years old”. Still have a 2000 Honda Accord on the road! After spending over $10,000 had to trade it in for $7,000. Should have junked it instead! Do not ever purchase a Mercedes unless you have money to waste and want a series of headaches!

Love our ML 350 4 Matic

We bought our certified-pre owned ML a year and a half ago, We also purchased an extra year of warranty and 3 extra services. My wife raves over this car each time she drives it. It is the most comfortable car we have ever owned. She loves the commanding view, the ride, and the comfort of the seats. We got the model with the Harmon Kardon sound system. It is the best sound system we have ever owned in a car!

The Best

We decided to let go of our 2003 S500. I have been researching for the past 3 months. I had previously owned a 2007 RDX that I put 200k on. I found a 2014 ML350 with 15k at Naples Mercedes Benz. It had almost every option, including the 20" wheels. I found the ride, comfort, styling and safety features to be everything I was looking for. The absolute plus was my wife loving the ride and the way it gives her a commanding view. (she is taking the ML 350 and I know have to drive our CLS 550) Oh well... maybe the weekends for me. We haves now traded our CLS550 for an identical ML350.

Great Car - Very Reliable and Dependable

I have owned this car for 5 years - absolutely love it - very quiet and luxurious.

In love

I have loved this car from the minute I got it. Love the handling, safety and sense of protection that I have driving this vehicle. My only, only problem is lack of a remote starter in the cold winter months. I would love to enter a nice, warm cozy car. Perhaps this is an option but since I leased I didn't want to have one installed and fiddle with the electric components of the car.

Front seats to deep

Love everything about this car but two things. Front seats are to narrow and deep. Seat bottom side bolsters are not adjustable and hurt my hips. Second is it has turbo lage. Falls on it’s face and then takes off!! This SUV is fast! Sounds great handles great! Got 45,000. Miles of trouble free performance.

V8 version is seriously fast luxurious SUV

CPO ML550 purchased in late 2017. Just went off warranty 10/2020. Warranty covered defective tire pressure sensor and power window. No problems otherwise, did all services as they came due. Periodic services aren't cheap, but a lot less pricey than the AMG services according to our service shop. Road hazard protection (rims and tires) is well worth the cost in our opinion as they replaced two bashed up rims without further cost to us. Our ML550 is the turbo V8 version. It is seriously fast. The accelerator and transmission are easy to learn, and we found the acceleration composed in every situation and blazingly fast when called upon, esp in cool dry weather. Some "expert" reviews say there's a lag in the power and then the SUV will burst forth in embarrassing fashion. This has not been our experience. The SUV has a lot of pull well past interstate speed limits, even when loaded with 3 200+ lb adults and their gear. On 2-lane highways with passing stretches, it's a breeze to pass pokey drivers, even those who feel compelled to gun it, for some reason, when you pull out to pass. We've been able to get around 18-20 mpg on the Interstate but only about 14 mpg in the city even when driving quite gently. Braking is outstanding, and the AWD is wonderful in the snow, rain and mud. The ride is wonderful on the highway, and wind noise is barely noticeable under 90 mph. On relatively rough stretches of roadway, the SUV stays composed, but large potholes and similar road defects register rather harshly inside. We've taken our ML550 off road at low speeds up and down rocky, rooty fire roads and through 1 foot-deep creeks, and the Benz was surefooted and had no problems. It has a setting similar to 4-wheel low as well as a hill descent mode. These work fine, but we didn't really need them. Hope this review helps some folks considering the 550 version.

First-class Vehicle

Looks great, both interior and exterior. Plenty of power, especially once up to speed; not as much take-off power, but I was spoiled by owning a BMW 7-Series before this car, and it had a larger engine, to be fair. Ample storage space in the back, and plenty of leg room in the back seat. Interior and exterior trim lighting are unique and attention-getting. Navigation system is impressive, and lots of places to plug stuff in (USB ports, etc.). Not quite as sporty-looking as a BMW SUV, but has a more refined look, and has everything you need, or could even want.

Mercedes Emissions Settlement

CPO purchased in October 2015. Just went off warranty 10/2019. 78,000 miles, all problems fixed. Love my car, reliable, owned for going on seven years and drives like it's new. Oh, with 78,000 miles on it, I still think its the best diesel engine made, 3.0 Turbocharged V6, it's just getting broken in, ha. Drives like a dream on the highway with plenty of power, quite ride and cruising speed. Car fixes, first by Mercedes, as part of a settlement law suit, the emissions and Cat for the Mercedes diesel-gate. Then, the emissions charger pipe was spewing vapor (oil) out the side, so I had that fixed at my local Independent Mercedes shop for one third the price of the dealership. And, the dealership diagnosis was incorrect, the oil cooler seals were not leaking as they had hounded me about for over a year and wanted $4,400 plus tax to fix. Classic dealership BS. Car now runs fine and I am keeping it because new car dealers don't have the replacement vehicles I want (hybrid Lexus or Toyota) and are gouging customers with ridiculous prices (no negotiation), so I can wait out the supply chain BS and inventory problems. Hybrids and EVs are the future but only at a fair price. Oh, and electricity is not "FREE"! We also have a 2019 T5 XC-40 that is well maintained and only has 25,000 miles on it. It is three years+ old and still looks and rides like brand new. So, no rush in buying any new vehicle until at least 2024.

Great SUV

Stylish Sporty and Functional

Excellent car

2014 ML 350. Rear drive. Rock solid.

Mercedes ml 350

Very satisfactory with my purchase

Best car ever

Only dislike is when it’s cold I wish the steering wheel gets warm 😉

2014 Mercedes-Benz ML350

Very comfortable car for long trips, with lots of power and a great turning radius, easy handling. One oddity is that one has to turn on the radio for the backup camera to turn on.

My 2014 ml 350 4 matic

I have driven my ml for 8 trouble free months…I absolutely love this car. I traded in a new E class after 1 month of ownership due to a bad back and could not get in and out of the car. My ml is comfortable and has been very dependable!

THE BENZ ENDS YOUR SUV SEARCH!

I love this SUV. I feel totally safe. It handles beautifully. Has so many features that there is a dvd owners manual as well has a gard copy. I get so many compliments on its looks.

Fantastic

Love the feel and drivability; there are no dislikes.

Reliable Suv

ML 350 4matic 2014 and still THE Suv !

Liked the older version ML 320, the "Box-SUV", then came this one, the ML 350 4matic, more like a car, great ride, nice space, still loving it, have not seen a model to replace this with. It's a keeper! Still a keeper! btw. this one is still with its first owner.!

Underrated luxury Mercedes SUV

Truly amazing!

Lemon Mercedes-Benz

From the first week in 2014 we have had nothing but problems on a regular basis with the car. You should hope a car in its class would be great but I assure you nothing but a lemon painted white.

an expensive meds

Terrible ride quality- rides like a stone! Terrible seats- firm and not comfortable! Terrible off-road- large wheel and thin tires make for a scary off road situation! Good acceleration and breaking. Mercedes has lost their way with their ML suv. The suspension clatters and bangs over every crack on the road! The transmission shifts abrubtly all of the time and with the large wheels and thin tires it is terrible off road! The seats are very uncomfortable. The only pros I can speak of as an owner are the reliability

great suv

overall, a great suv.

NEW OWNER

JUST PURCHASED A WEEK AGO. TOO SOON TO RATE REPAIR FREQUENCY. SO FAR I AM PLEASED. LOVE MY NEW SUV

Ml 350 bluetec is where it's at!
