2023 MERCEDES-BENZ Glc 300

GLC 300 was purchased new on May 25, 2023. Multiple 12V battery errors, check engine indicators, and rear hatch closing on owner starting the first week of ownership. 48V battery and Main Fuse Box were replaced. Multiple recalls were addressed. Most significant issue related to false collision avoidance incidents on two occasions that resulted in dangerous situations and extreme stress on the occupants. First occurrence was on July 12, 2024. Driving approximately 40 mph on two lane road near a school that was not in session. There were no surrounding vehicles, pedestrians or obstacles. Vehicle beeped, seatbelts locked, and speed forced to 10 mph. Took vehicle to local MB dealership who attributed the vehicle’s response to proximity to a school zone. Vehicle was not checked for fault codes. Second occurrence was on August 19, 2024. Driving 55 mph on major highway and a truck entered the merge lane to the right. The truck was travelling at reduced speed and remained in the merge lane showing no effort to merge into vehicle’s lane. Vehicle had violent sudden deceleration with beeping alerts, locking seatbelts and reduced speed to 10 mph. Driver and passenger experienced symptoms of whiplash. It was fortunate that there was no vehicle travelling immediately behind the vehicle. Vehicle was driven to MB dealership for analysis. The vehicle had been driven 6,177 miles in 15 months. Service manager indicated there were no fault codes so no maintenance was warranted. Owner viewed the vehicle as dangerous due to false collision avoidance issues that put passengers and others at risk. The owner sold the vehicle to the MB dealership.

The care sends a message that the battery is low. Then the check engine light comes on till we drive the car for awhile. The first time this happened I took it to the dealer and they said they could find nothing wrong with it and was giving no readings. It has continued to happen a lot. The battery should not be going down if it not being used. There has to be a problem. This has been going on for over a year. The dealer where we bought the car called today about service and said there was a recall about the battery, but when I call MB they said there was not recall?

There is an active recall for my vehicle Mercedez Benz GLC 300W4 for which I was NOT NOTIFIED BY THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER. The recall states that certain 80A fuses installed might not meet production requirements. As a result, a contact interruption or an increased triggering resistance might occur. In this case, systems connected to the fuse might become inoperable. Among others, the vehicle might lose propulsion without warning, restraint functions or the instrument cluster might be impaired, increasing the risk of a crash and injuries. In addition, a risk of fire cannot be ruled out. An authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer will replace the respective main fuse box on the affected vehicles. The following is the SAFETY RISK associated with this recall. As a result, a contact interruption or an increased triggering resistance might occur. In this case, systems connected to the fuse might become inoperable. Among others, the vehicle might lose propulsion without warning, restraint functions or the instrument cluster might be impaired, increasing the risk of a crash and injuries. In addition, a risk of fire cannot be ruled out. I have noticed that check engine light turning on at times while driving which might be due to this fuse malfunctioning. Please take appropriate action and support my case. I can provide more details if required. Thank you.

First of all, this is a new car produced in 2023. Since I bought it, the engine has shown alarms more than four times. Every time I went to the 4S shop, no problems were found. Today, the engine still shows a yellow alarm. Secondly, the brake disc makes a loud noise when I park the car and then start the accelerator. Mercedes-Benz has not paid attention to these problems. I think it greatly affects driving safety.This car has been sent to the 4S store many times, but the inspection has always failed. The above-mentioned problems with the car have always existed. I sincerely request your help in solving them.

When working in the rear cargo area, the door comes down without warning and does not break when it meets resistance trapping me between the body of the car and the descending door. A great deal of physical pressure must be employed in trying to get it to reverse direction. It is a struggle to get out from under the continually closing door. This has happend to me on three different occasions. There should be an automatic reversal when the door meets resistance not unlike a garage door.
