  • Fuel System, Gasoline 09/01/2022

    The contact owns a 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLC300. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds and depressing the accelerator pedal, the check engine warning light was displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle lost power and was pulled over and restarted. The contact was almost involved in several crashes due to the failure. The vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V445000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the vehicle was repaired, and the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on several occasions, where the fuel pump, charcoal filter, and other various parts of the fuel pump were repaired; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and the contact was informed that the cylinder head would be replaced free of charge. The contact believed that the vehicle was unsafe to drive due to the failures. The vehicle was not repaired, and a loaner vehicle was provided. The failure mileage was unknown.

    My vehicle had check engine lights on throughout the last couple of years. Every time I bought it to the dealer, they ignored it and said the light went off. The machine doesn't pick up anything. Now the check engine light is on and the cylinder head and diagnostic head, something is wrong. They will fix the diagnostic head but not the cylinder head. The dealership knew there was ongoing issues but did nothing to correct it. The sales department already screwed me as well. The older models are recalled for the same issues and now the the newer vehicles like mine are having the same EXACT problem.

  • Engine 11/20/2025

    The contact owns a 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLC300. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. There was a misfire coming from the engine, and the vehicle lost motive power. In addition, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with spark plug failures, coils, and the transmission needed to be flushed. The vehicle was taken to an alternate dealer where the spark plugs and coils were replaced, and the transmission fluid was flushed. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic who was a Mercedes mechanic, where it was diagnosed with misfire codes in cylinders #1 and #4, leakage coming from exhaust valves in cylinders #1 and #4, low compression in cylinders #1 and #4, and there was a 75 percent leak in cylinders #1 and #4. The contact was informed that the complete...

  • Unknown Or Other 12/06/2025

    On Saturday 12/6/25, I put my 15 year old cat in his carrier in the back seat and closed the door. I got into my car and opened my garage door. I started my MBGLC300 and began backing my car out of my garage. As soon as the car rear end cleared the garage, I heard an explosion "BOOM", and the sound of breaking glass. I pulled back into my garage only to find the entire back window had exploded... all the glass was gone, and the back windshield wiper was dangling out of its housing from the pane (trim). I hit nothing! Nothing hit me! I got back into my car and drove the 10 minutes down the street to my vet's where he got his shot and I had him combed out (for any glass - thank goodness there wasn't any). While there, I phoned Dick Dyer Mercedes Benz (803.828.6952) at 8:57 AM,and spoke with Ryan Smith and told him I'd be down after the vet appointment. I pulled in at Dick Dyer service department shortly after 9:00AM. He said, "I've never seen anything like this." The whole...

  • Air Bags, service Brakes, forward Collision Avoidance 11/15/2025

    I was involved in a severe front-end collision where my vehicle struck another vehicle with significant force. Despite the major impact, the front airbags did NOT deploy. The entire front end of the vehicle was crushed, including destruction of the radiator, damage to engine components, internal structural collapse, and leaking fluids. Based on the severity and direct frontal nature of the crash, airbags should have deployed but did not. As a result of the impact, I sustained a neck and upper shoulder injury and required medical evaluation. There were no warning lights or messages prior to the crash indicating any malfunction in the airbag or SRS system. The vehicle is available for inspection by NHTSA, the manufacturer, insurance, or an authorized Mercedes-Benz service center. This appears to be a possible failure of the airbag/SRS system during a qualifying collision.
