2024 Mercedes-Benz GLC recalls

2. Service Department Misconduct —XXX Appointment On XXX, I brought my vehicle to the dealership’s service department for a pre-scheduled and confirmed appointment regarding a safety-related warning involving the emergency brake system. Despite having provided a full description of the issue at the time of booking, I was informed upon arrival that the diagnostic process would take more than five hours. When I asked about a loaner vehicle — standard practice at Mercedes-Benz dealerships in cases of extended service — I was refused, even though five courtesy vehicles were visibly parked on the lot and at least two other customers who arrived after me were provided loaners and expedited service

The vehicle presented multiple warnings/errors before shutting down on the street in traffic on June 23, 2026. Warnings such as Collision Detected, Blind Spot Assist and Exit Warning Inoperative, PRE-SAFE Inoperative, System Failure Detected, Service Required Do Not Shift Gear, along with various lights on the dashboard which includes the Check Engine Light. The vehicle was towed to local Mercedes Benz dealership which reported the issue was with a drive train module that required a software update, the update was performed and vehicle was returned to me on June 25, 2026. On June 28, 2026 the warnings Blind Spot Assist and Exit Warning Inoperative, and PRE-SAFE Inoperative messages returned.

The rear lift gate closes unexpectedly when standing behind the vehicle and loading or unloading the cargo area. The keyless soft close activates even though there is no foot movement, or when there is minimal movement. This happens without warning. On several occasions this has happened to me, and also to my wife. It has caused minor bruises, but more importantly we are both older and it has been difficult extricating ourselves and reaching the control to raise the gate again. While there have been no falls yet, it's only a matter of time before someone loses their balance or is hurt in some other way. This has been reviewed by the local dealer's service department who says there is nothing

Check engine light (MIL) came on while driving and vehicle lost power. Would not accelerate. Had it towed to Mercedes Benz of Mrytle Beach. $8000 repair. Mercedes Corp would not help. This is a copy of a TSB (LI05.20-P-080257) for this issue: Complaint engine vibrations perceived at low rpm. Fault codes for the camshaft position of the intake camshaft (p001100, p001104, p001200) or exhaust camshaft (p001400, p001404, p001500) may be stored. Cause continuously fluctuating oil pressure in the central valve may lead to damage to the filter screen on the central valve. This can result in damage to the filter screen or the filter screen breaking loose. The resulting loss of oil pressure prevents

While driving the vehicle the engine started running rough, check engine light illuminated and it would not accelerate above 40 mph. There are 29,100 miles on the vehicle, it's been serviced on schedule by Mercedes and is owned by me since new. It is especially concerning due to the acceleration topic which could have been catastrophic if I were trying to merge into traffic. Dealer service say the camshaft bearing needs to be replaced. It seems this is very premature for the mileage on the vehicle.
