Mercedes-Benz GLE580

My Mercedes GLE 580 experienced a complete failure of the 48V battery system due to the exact defect outlined in NHTSA Recall Campaign 24V207 (defective 48V ground connection causing high resistance and fire risk). The official status for my VIN shows 'Recall Incomplete.' The vehicle is currently at Mercedes-Benz of Barrington. The dealership is actively refusing to remedy this safety recall under warranty and is attempting to charge me $5,313 out of pocket for the battery replacement.…

Radiator started leaking in <3000 miles of driving the brand new GLE 580 Mercedes Benz. Twice I got errors in the car that stated check coolant level I could hear liquid moving in the front of the car when I parked it. Once while driving, the AC totally stopped working and on the entire drive, I couldn't feel the cool air. I also got 48V battery issue during this drive. I called the dealer and they said not to worry and that they will top off coolant. A few weeks later, I got another error…

Sunroof part behind the windshield came off due to the bond adhesive deteriorating and cause part coming off and causing road hazard

The adaptive cruise on the Mercedes has a habit of harsh braking during stop and go traffic. It's not a natural braking manev8, instead it's jarring and I feel like it could cause a rear end with how jarring it is. Many other users are experiencing the same.

The transmission with the Auto Start/Stop 48v system is very clunky and not smooth at low speeds. I'm unable to park in my garage or parallel park with the Auto Start/Stop feature enabled which is by default for reduced emissions. I fear hitting pedestrians/people at crosswalks, causing damage to my house inside my garage when parking, and/or other vehicles when parallel parking because the transmission is so clunky, it causes the vehicle to surge or lurch forward very harshly in such a way…

Many times while driving a warning pops up in the driver interface that the camera view is restricted, including an icon implying that the AEB system is unavailable. Funny thing is there is never any obstruction of the camera that I can tell. So I told the service rep at the dealer, including showing him a pic of the error message and the repair order just said, unable to replicate with nothing done. So unusual that mine is the only Mercedes vehicle that does this! Also emailed corporate…

THE VEHICLE IS A 2020 MERCEDES BENZ GLE 580, WHICH HAS ALL-WHEEL DRIVE. IT HAS STANDARD WHEELS AND TIRES. THE OE TIRES ARE COOPER DISCOVERER SRX LE, SIZE 275/50R20. AT 5,900 MILES, BOTH OF THE FRONT TIRES BEGAN CHUNKING, WHERE CHUNKS OF TIRE TREAD BEGAN FALLING OFF. THIS OCCURRED IN THE CENTER OF THE TREAD, AS WELL AS AT THE EDGE OF THE TREAD WHERE IT MEETS THE GROOVE. THE FRONT TIRES WERE REPLACED BY MERCEDES AT 5,932 MILES. APPROXIMATELY 6,000 MILES LATER, I NOTICED THE FRONT TIRES WERE…

THE VEHICLE HAS E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL (E-ABC), WHICH HAS DIFFERENT DRIVE MODES THAT AFFECT TRANSMISSION SHIFT POINTS, STEERING INPUT AND SUSPENSION. THE VEHICLE HAS THE OE WHEELS AND TIRES (COOPER ALL-SEASON TIRES). ONE DRIVE MODE IS DESIGNATED 'CURVE,' WHICH CONTROLS BODY LEAN IN CURVES. DEPENDING ON THE SETTING, CURVE HOLDS THE BODY UPRIGHT OR SLIGHTLY LEANS IT INTO CURVES, LIKE A MOTORCYCLE LEANING INTO A CURVE. WHEN IN CURVE MODE AND DRIVING IN A CURVE, THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY OR ACCIDENT…

I PURCHASED A GLE 580 IN JANUARY 2020 WITH STANDARD 20-INCH WHEELS AND TIRES ON THE FRONT AND REAR. THIS TIRE/WHEEL COMBINATION IS AN AVAILABLE OPTION ON THE GLE 350, GLE 350 4MATIC AND GLE 450 4MATIC. THE OPERATOR'S MANUAL FOR ALL 2020 GLE MODELS (AND PRESUMABLY FOR EARLIER MODELS) STATES: 1.ROTATE FRONT AND REAR WHEELS ONLY IF THE WHEELS AND TIRES ARE OF THE SAME DIMENSIONS. 2.ON VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE SAME SIZE FRONT AND REAR WHEELS, ROTATE THE WHEELS ACCORDING TO THE INTERVALS IN THE…

THE PROBLEM HAPPENED ON A BUSINESS TRIP TO AND FROM KANSAS CITY MO. AND MINNEAPOLIS MN. THE CRUISE CONTROL HAS A FEATURE THAT CAN READ ROAD SPEED LIMIT SIGNS AND CHANGE THE SET SPEED TO MATCH THE INDICATED SPEED. THIS FEATURE CAN BE TURNED ON OR OFF BY USING THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM. ON THIS TRIP TO KANSAS I HAD THIS SIGN RECOGNITION FEATURE TURNED OFF. THE PROBLEM IS THAT ON AT LEAST 12 OCCASIONS DURING THIS 900 MILE TRIP THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD ARBITRARILY CHANGE THE SET SPEED FROM 70 MPH TO…
