BTW: did you know that Mercedes is now charging $5k for freight and PDI? That's ridiculous for something you'll never be able to recoup the cost on. It's like dumping $5k down the toilet. I've sent a complaint to Mercedes Canada. I have hope because my complaints to Volvo have worked (I own an XC90). Let's see ...

Had a 2022 GLC43 as a loaner while they replaced my E53 wagon hybrid battery (twice it was replaced in 6 months).. I liked it for the size, it was small, nimble, fun etc... but my loaner with only 20k on it was creaking and had some rattles that bugged me... It was no E class thats for sure.. I wouldnt buy one simply for this reason, rattles and squeaks bother me big time.
@CapELarry3 ай бұрын
My buddy had a C class of that same year. Think was a creaky rattle box. I was shocked. I’ve been in Hyundais that felt more solid. Throttle House talks a lot about the “creaky wood” they use for trim.

The main problem with the Mercedes GLC43, C63, and all new models is their 2.0L engines. What did you do, Mercedes? WTF! No one can consider a hybrid 2.0L + electric engine in an expensive car (AMG). Changing to a 3.0L hybrid would be an improvement..

I test drove the GLC and thought I would like it but I agree with size and the creeking. Mercedes seems to try and overshadow build quality with tech and ambient lighting. For the price, I would choose SQ5 at 10G’s less or X3M40i for 4-5 thousand less. Mercedes = 💄 on a 🐷

We found out that it’s no longer certified as a “light truck” because its ride height is lower than the previous generation. So they don’t tint the rear now.

I was interested in this model since I really like the design but... Benz interiors look and feel incredibly cheap to me the last few years.

I wonder why sales continue to decline for them? 🤔

Overall, the styling of the GLC is much cleaner than the BMW X3. BMW styling has become a real mess in recent years. I like the RWD proportions of this, but am sick of the giant fake intake nostrils. There are many details I'd do differently. I dislike the lack of physical controls inside. At this price, cast aluminum switches/knobs would be lux, not more goddam laptop screens. Love the info screen sweeping up from the console, but I wish the IP was in a binnacle. Wish the vents were aluminum, not plastic. Why aren't the rear windows tinted? Wish the audio upgrade was a stand-alone option (like on X3). An AMG should show off polished aluminum bits under the hood; instead we get a cheap looking plastic cover. The switch from a V6 to this four did not really result in much better mpg. 25 mpg on a freeway cruise is not great. It's a lot of money.

Save yourself the 60 grand and get anything else. When it breaks under warranty they can’t find any issues, everything is within spec but you’ll need new tires every 15000 miles and brake pads every oil change so that makes every oil change about $1000. The truck is a PoS, avoid at all costs
