Hello, I purchased a GLC 400e with the AMG Premium package on January 26, 2023. After two months, I experienced issues with the transmission controllers. In fact, the gearbox repeatedly failed at high speeds, especially above 160 kilometers per hour, causing significant stress and concern for my own safety and that of my family while driving on the highway. This serious risk of an accident has put me and my family in danger. After four attempts to diagnose the problem by Mercedes, starting from June 21, my vehicle has been at the Mercedes service center in Aschaffenburg, Germany. However, unfortunately, they do not have the necessary parts for the repair, and I am forced to wait until July 31. Undoubtedly, this lengthy delay has left me extremely dissatisfied and angry with Mercedes. Until today, despite sending multiple emails to Mercedes and filling out their form, they have not made any contact or taken any actions to address my concerns and seek my satisfaction.
@@Njliving22even those are garbage dude have an uncle with a failing transmission Tacoma and a friend with a brand new Highlander that left them on the side of the highway. Tired of those brand being held to a higher standard when they’re all garbage… Toyota, Lexus etc are no different.
Ok, I genuinely love Mike Danger and Lyn. On any other channel they would stand out as exceptional. But this video is a great example of why Micah just remains The Best. It comes off as organic and fluid, Setup jokes payoff, sure, but self depricating spir of the moment atuff just works and works well. Its that spontenaity that makes Micah a supersayan car reviewer whom I watch without xomplaint even though I will never own a premium suv.
Don’t be afraid to mash it even if it feels a little weird - Micah Muzio May 2023: This is why you’re my favorite reviewer. I had the same dumb ass laugh as soon as you said it 🤣🤣😂😂
Why would the “Heat and Noise Insulating Glass” be made available only for the top of the line trim, the pinnacle? That is supposed to be a standard feature of a benz!
I dunno man. The only thing that kept me excited and happy throughout the video was the guitar playing in the background which I’m sure was done by Micah 😆
@@nathanielross8232 sure, Mazda will not only rust out and deteriorate visually both outside with its paint, and inside with lots of tears, and wear, but that’s by 200k km, while Mercedes will be looking brand new at a million km, it’ll start drinking oil, and drive terribly not soon after, and Mercedes will still have no repairs by 500k km
@@myemailiscool agree they are gorgeous in person and feel very well made. It’s the only car that I’m considering to replace my Volvo because they are the only brand with a comparable interior look and feel. The internet is such a fun and unique place 😂😤
@@JakeDrives1 I think that would be a nice move, mercedes is hitting their next gen interiors while volvo is still using their same design language from the XC90 8 years ago. I sat in a new C class recently and was pleasantly surprised at how nice it felt. Felt better than my 3 series, overall. But i love the B58 too much 😂
@@myemailiscool I test drove the new C class and the ride quality and powertrain calibration were superior to my Volvo. I’m sure GLC is working with the same hardware. I love my Volvo but the MB cabin is out of this world! I am also looking at the BMWs for that exact reason. The magnificent I6!
I purchased a #GLC400e in January 2023 in Germany with all #AMG premium packages; I encountered numerous issues four times. On a highway where I was traveling at a speed of 120 miles per hour, I misplaced the transmitter. Can you even begin to imagine how much my life was in danger when I was traveling at a fast pace in the middle of the highway? I have taken the vehicle to the Service Center three times. I am so irritated that I want to get my money back for this ridiculous automobile. My UA-cam channel contains documentation of all of these stories. What exactly are you going to do with your brand name, Mercedes?
I thought I couldn't get passed its looks. But that interior is very inexpensive looking, and feeling I bet. I think Mercedes is relying on people being wowed by the screens. Other than that? Great video Micah and Danger.
Agree with interior control: they do not give any feedback and do not feel plush. It is actually a show stopper, coming from the Audi world. The other two germans have better interiors.
I'll be real with you bro, you lost me at "pound feet". Yes it's correct as of recently but it sounds awful to anyone interested in power, who lives in the USA.
Cheating out on the buttons is not a how a Mercedes should be. Pinching pennies at this price range is undignified for such a luxury marquee. BMW has always surpassed you in performance and now luxury. That’s why I bought a X3m340i. Inline 6 with real buttons!
Definitely not buying one, I am tired looking at my laptop screen, phone screen, tv screen and now I have to look at all these screens in the car!? so many cheap plastic, and intangible buttons…
@@googleaccount6931 I recall competitors like Porsche, Audi, and Genesis are phasing out ice cars already. But not MB and Lexus apparently. They are like Kodak in the 2000s, stubbornly sticking with chemical films while everyone else was changing to making digital cameras.

"Hey Mercedes, how about you help your customers when they buy malfunctioning Mercedes products?"
All new German vehicles went to crap. Only brands I trust for reliability are Lexus Toyota and Honda.

All of those reflections off of the sea of that cheap glossy black plastic trim really brightens up the cabin.
😂😂😂
"Luxury" gloss black you mean
Far from a sea of gloss black compared to many many other brands
@@MBisFrenchy no it’s not luxury, luxury is the piano black, this is gloss black.
@@Brian-jv8iy Correct I made a mistake.

What a lovely comment, Ben. Thanks for the kind words!

Ok Mike Danger in disguise.
@@Ethan7s hahaha I wish😂
@@UnoB8938 wait, what's the joke? Lol
Looking at the CX-90, I’m ready to see how the CX-70 compares with this and hopefully it’s priced well too.
At last Micah is back!!!
Hi!!
which one is batter choice, GLC or Lexus RX?
😂❤ the backseat scene made my day 🫂
Why no mention of the Volvo XC 60 as an alternative?
Where/which city has been this video recorded?
Can’t wait for this to go for $30k in one year.
They don’t depreciate that fast
@@XDMIIIIIIIIIok 3 years...
You were spot on mate
Mercedes benz are the best driving cars, i have driven a few. Still want one.

It's true. Those are Micah-supplied riffs.
Who are the people building these cars... they didn't learn from VW or BMW making everything capacitive? Unreal man
Great review! I think you're right, it is better. And very nice to look at, as well.
why does the transmission sound like a cvt?
The Mazda CX90 is looking better every day.
Same price. If you keep them long term, you’ll have that Mazda for years after that Merc is traded out

@Brian-jv8iy you're smoking some serious weed...
Looks like an improved road trip "car."
Good looking SUV, the Mike Danger bit was funny too...
Btw, Micah's t-shirt look fits the rich kid who just inherited his daddy's money. 😅
Man, I wish my dad would buy me a Lancia Stratos.
Modern Mercedes cars look so chintzy on the inside
have you been in one? or only seen them on youtube videos? they're quite nice in person.
I like the word chintzy.

Excellent review Micah!😸
Good to see you again Micah.
That hollow console 😬 and the seat controls on the door look like they feel terrible! Otherwise not a bad price for the overall package.
thanks for the videos
GV70 for the win.
Agreed
If you’re in it for the driving experience, sure. Otherwise, no way.
Fair review.

MICAAAHHH LETS GOOO
Lexus RX for the win 🏆
The NX competes with this, not the RX
Lazy interior design by not integrating the screens. Looks cheap.
So you just want one big screen? Buy a cheesy Tesla then. Lol
@@johnsambo9379 Google Integrated
@@johnsambo9379this interior is a hot mess...
damn the bezel is THICKKKKKK
This is getting expensive if the base GLC 300 STARTS at $47,100 with RWD, & $49,100 with 4Matic AWD 🤦🏽♂️🙄
0-60 in 6 seconds? Awe it got a bit slower 😩 x3 does it in 5.5
The only Mercedes that had an aggressive take off is the F1. Since when this is a Benz feature?
@@seongyuhhaur5120have you ever heard of Mercedes-AMG?

Are the motor manufacturers listening to the fact that we like buttons!

Idk the interior has grown on me
Mercedes-Benz technology is always top-notch, but their newer designs are lackluster.
My bro in law has previous series. Spent $11,600 for service repairs on a 2018….. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. REFRESHED OR NOT. DON’T.
I miss MCAS El Toro
It should be better, why change something to go backwards
Agree with interior control: they do not give any feedback and do not feel plush. It is actually a show stopper, coming from the Audi world. The other two germans have better interiors.
This is the basic trim, the AMG line and AMG will be better but that size with the power of the c class? Oops
Come on just say it. This is the car with the most annoying controls you've driven since the last MB you've driven.
😃

I will never get these cubic feet things. How many letters or cubic meter is? It is time for US to join the rest of the world.

He is trying to hard with this unnecessary sexual jokes.
Mercedes interior design fell off the clip after last generation's S class. Materials are terrible for a 60k car and the usibility is awful too.
Nah I'll keep on driving my older 02 e55 benz not worth money
lexus rx compete with Mercedes GLE
Hey Micah, more information, less wisecracking please. This video of yours is all but impossible to watch.
Why is the video so over exposed and choppy?? Are you giving KBB a subtle nudge to remind them how important you are?
Dressed up for the review eh KBB?? T-shirt on video.... you would think he was reviewing a new bong!?!?
It's a volume base model crossover. Not an Aston Martin. He looks totally fine.
Definitely not buying one, I am tired looking at my laptop screen, phone screen, tv screen and now I have to look at all these screens in the car!? so many cheap plastic, and intangible buttons…
I’d pay extra to delete the screens, have analog controls and physical buttons. Just give me Apple CarPlay or android auto.
Paul rudd. Period.
Guy is too jokey and obnoxious
I'm not for everyone. Thankfully the internet is filled with other car reviewers. :)
Blech, old version was better. Screens suck.
Does not look “premium “, at all……
Agree , Kia looks better😂
Dude is not funny
Might be worst reviewer on UA-cam. #Abrasive and Ignorant
Your comment not funny
first
Congratulations
What’s the point of Mercedes even building this that there are only 10 more years left for new combustion cars.
Because people are still in the market for ice cars
