Our Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is back at the dealership with just 108 miles due to a heat issue in the center console. It got so heated up that I got worried if it had caught fire. I’m really very disappointed as the issue that erupted could not be resolved yet. The driving experience of this vehicle is quite good but sadly it is shortlived. The entire cabin especially on the side of the driver creaks. I would suggest you look for another vehicle as more than in the garage the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is in the shop. It is definitely not worth the headache I’m undergoing.

Spacious, calm, and surprisingly light
The GLS is that rare full-sized, colossal SUV that maintains its composure even when the luggage is stacked, and the cabin is fully loaded. Its 3.0-liter inline-six mild-hybrid engine continues to deliver power smoothly, especially during overtakes on the wide highways. I do... Read More

Jerky transmission, lots of wind noise
Seven months ago, I purchased the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class, and right now I’m very disappointed with it. While driving, I can hear lots of wind noise that in the headliner sounds like a swarm of bees. On downshifts, the transmission is very jerky, giving me the feeling that I... Read More

Enjoyable driving dynamics, disappointing stereo system
Mercedes-Benz has been my favorite brand and I have tried out almost all the vehicles manufactured by this brand. I recently got the chance to try out my friend’s Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class, and I had a mixed experience with it. It took a little time to get used to the tech, and... Read More

Classy but incredibly responsive car
When I am driving, the best feature a car can have for me is a car that’s responsive and reacts immediately. If I am flooring the accelerator, I would like that jerk. If I am braking suddenly, I would like that jerk. This car has the ability to respond to every little thing of... Read More
