2015 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class — reported problems

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

• Owner complaints (832 records, model years 2007–2016) are most frequently classified under: air bags (restraint system), suspension and electrical system.
• Manufacturer communications (811 records, model years 2007–2016) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, equipment & accessories and engine.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
