You can instantly silence Ms. Mercedes by blipping the the home button on the steering wheel with your right thumb. After a year it just hasn’t been a problem. I think she speaks up way less than initially. Too bad I can’t so easily silence the female voice from the passenger seat that thinks I couldn’t drive to Walmart or her Mother’s without endless driving instructions.
smh, all of these problems you mentioned are so minor and i'd not even concider them problems, i'm wondering if you think it's reliable and had it broke down on you someday and left you stranded? and is it expensive to maintain?
I depends on the driver. I have no problem connecting my iPhone, the GLC has great horsepower it’s a great buy. The only issue i found was space depending on your height with kids n the back.
I've been with the GLC 2017 since and had tried the 2020 also, it's the same. Suspension is the worst part on this car, it feels like a groceries cart whenever you drive on the slightest bad road (almost the same in the 2020) Transmission and throttle combo: is indeed super jerky when doing stop and go in either traffic jams or making quick stops.Just those 2 things are to the point that it's embarrassing to me whenever I have guests on board "my Mercedes" so I must be be extra careful about my driving to avoid those situations as much. Throttle is artificially slowed in an exaggerate way in comfort mode and very frustrating to me, I find it dangerous at times when you need to insert yourself in traffic from an intersection! this means you will never get the power you want when you need unless you almost floor the gas paddle and takes at least a good 2 secs. The sport mode is way better for that and I would keep it on at all times but 2 problems; 1) the RPM will raise by 1/2x1000more as long as sport mode is on 2) Even if you don't care about gas and pollution in sport you must enable back at every start of the engine. Sound system before 2020 is super bad! no bass, muffled sound no matter how you try to adjust it sound like ass, such insult at this price point, Kia as a way better sound system in my friend's sorento by far. Air suspension already leaking from visit to chalet, and no I have not used the car in any abusive way!! More very annoying things: after a while the center console cracks during driving as well as my driver's side door plastics. They did fixed it at the dealer by tightening the screws but it only lasted for a month! Then you also get the air-vent traps adjusting airflow inside the vents that started making noise every 20 seconds or so. For the 2020 I would also like to point out that they could have refreshed the outdated front grill design. I would also say that the paint is of a poor quality, not durable. the inner lower door steps will get rusty quickly. My recommandation: Don't buy! There are way better built and durable vehicles out there that will give you much better value for your $$ especially if you don't lease. And between the 2, as I also know BMWs, I believe the X3 is a much better car and experience all around.
My mercedes GLC /the L is for 🍋 at least you got to have some driving experience, mines always in the shop ….thank goodness only did a 2 year least ! Hello 2022 X3. 💜
@@mydevices768 X3 lower horsepower and torque make believe performance and is know to have more issues then the Mercedes mechanically it is a horrible choice. Stick to the Mercedes and don't look back.
The car learns to quit responding to every time “Mercedes” is uttered. Also a quick tap on the home button on the steering wheel with your right thumb immediately silences it. I haven’t had to do it for months.
I recently purchased a 2019 GLC 300 Coupe and I don't understand how Mercedes specs out these vehicles I've noticed that some AMG 43s and 63s don't come with cooled seats like mine did I've never owned a Mercedes this will be my first and I'm still trying to recognize how this line of vehicles are decked out compared to American vehicles that each one has its trim level I've seen some higher trim level Mercedes that don't have the specs my 2019 has but all in all vehicle is great I love the 4rmatic system these vehicles come with. .....By the way is it normal for these vehicles to sound like a diesel engine?
I have a 6 month old 2022 glc300 suv and I hate the lack of cooled seats and heated/cooled steering. C’mon, it’s standard on my moms Chevy Tahoe, why not on my supposedly “luxury car” Mercedes’?
@@vicksys for me that car is boring and nothing special, it is slow, not fun to drive, also that is every secong car at my place and that makes it more boring
@@vicksys I never said bmw is good, I just don’t like these boring cars, if it would be glc with 300hp than it would be maybe fun to drive but 1800kg and 200hp is boring as f***, just like all cars that put 200hp on cars 1500kg+
Ok, when are you alone in your car and say "hey Mercedes"?!! lol I think the fonction works really well. The more you talk to the system, the better it will understand.
the thing I wish I could have got is the technology package with the upgraded multi-beam headlight, the normal version headlight has that line in the middle, which doesn't look so good
Exactly bro! And I find that sport and sport plus mode gives you a pretty good throttle response when you need to gain speed. This is an amazing commuter.
I can answer your question about keyless entry. My friend who owns a Honda Odyssey Touring kept getting his car broken in because it had keyless entry. It is easy to steal the code and there is nothing the car manufacturer can do. It is for security reasons. I am glad my GLC does not come with keyless entry.
Here’s what I don’t like about my car I cannot figure out how to turn the radio off if it if I need it to save my own life ironically my attempts to turn it off will surely lead to an accident one day because there’s no seeming way to turn off the stupid radio!!!!!
You mention "keyless entry". All cars with a fob are keyless entry. I think you are referring to "proximity" where the car recognizes your presence and unlocks or locks the car.
Hey, thanks for taking time to make a vid. But please, old usb is called USB Type-A!!! I was shocked to learn GLC does not have it! Also would be great to give us an update on your experience 3-years later. How did it hold up over the years?
With the new software upgrade the high Mercedes or hey Mercedes feature is now working well and it doesn't interrupt your conversation when you just use the word Mercedes anymore so that is fixed the only other thing about the complaint is the lag in the sport gear shift and also the tire wear on the run-flat tires that come with my 4matic is too high I just switched to some high mileage michelins to replace my pirellis and it handles better too.
Love your videos! Really really confused as to why you cover up the license plates when these are rental cars? What is someone gonna do with the plate number?! Lol.
I have two minor annoyances with our new 2020 GLC. First is the horn beep when locking the car; have not found a way to disable it. Second, the instrument cluster design is such that the steering wheel blocks my view of the top part of the screen and top outside corners of the tachometer and speedometer because I have the steering wheel positioned low.
Try this Press both the lock and unlock buttons on your remote for two seconds. Watch for the hazard lights to flash three times. Lock the doors and confirm that the horn does not sound.
You missed the most annoying thing with MBUX which is the stupid pinch/stretch for zooming in and out of the map on satnav. If your left handed or live in a country such as here in the UK where it is on your left it is so annoying, especially when there is a two wheels for volume on dash and steering wheel either of which would be really useful if they could be configured for the satnav instead.....gripe over.
I would definitely say your video is very helpful, but you complain a lot because no disrespect but your car is a very base model car. If you really want to complain less, you should either consider a more expensive one or a GLE. I do agree that BMW is a more smoother car but the new GLC is much faster than the X3.
what is your experience when you go over the street bumps ? I found it uncomfortable and hard feeling on GLC 300 while BMW X3 offers much smoother and comfort. I also wonder why it does not come with 12V charger which is very useful for additional GPS device and dash cameras.
My A220 gets jerky I know exactly what you’re talking about it’s get freaking annoying it feels like I’m driving an old ass car that’s gonna break down. Doesn’t always happen it mostly happens when accelerating, coming to a stop (not often) and it’s almost not possible to be in traffic and flow with it. U either go or stay stopped. If ur slowly going it’ll jerk. Don’t get me wrong tho it does not always happens but it will occasionally. Not enough to not look into one.
omg I have 5 my payments left on my nissan rouge. I was looking at the infiniti qx50 2021. for a luxury car kinda of boring. I went to the mercedes of smithtown I saw the 2021 glc 300 4matic in lunar blue metallic. interior is silk beige. my mouth dropped to the floor omg I want that one . so I pickup a Thursday.
@Dante Monte the mercedes benz seats are so much comfortable then the zero gravity seat. I hated the seat in the nissan no back support. my lower back and legs hurt driving only 30 minutes, with Nissan rouge. on my mercedes benz I don't have take my hands off the wheels. hey mercedes iam cold. raise the temperature and lowers the temperaturem.
Why do Mercedes sold in America look cheaper than the ones sold in Europe? I wonder if it’s those orange-coloured side markers within the headlight bezels that cheapen the entire appearance of the car.
What a hero. Of course the Hey Mercedes future is meant to be activated only if you say only the two words. You say it in a sentence, it shouldn’t go off. BTW, the new iPhones come with USB C cables and I would say, if you can afford this car, you could get a charging cable that fits the car and there are cables out there where both ends are USB C, so get your sh-it together. The sport future is meant to be more rough, just as it is with manual transmission, but ok, how you should figure out, right? And yeah, you switching to sport mode when driving in a parking lot and wondering it steers a bit heavier, and then in the next sentence you telling the people that the heavy steering applies only with higher speeds? A complete saying against each other, or do you race in the parking lot? BTW, the shift paddles reacting all the time the same way, but you should at some point be able to figure out that you need to apply the same pressure on them when you expecting the same result. But ok, Americans who driving with sun glasses on in shady weather conditions are most likely just noisy, producing just hot air, without any content and you are their role model. What a clown.
I’ve owned a 2017 350d amg glc premium plus with 36000 miles since nov 2021, I have to say the only thing it’s got going for it is the looks especially in grey. unfortunately the drivers seat is delaminating from the threads needless to say they are made of VINYL and the dealers don’t want to know, the consumption isn’t much good either, the car is dealer maintained, I couldn’t find the car which I originally wanted in the spec I wanted which was a first generation SQ5 plus the range of which is 600+ whilst the glc is just over 400 (same size tanks) this is my first MB and certainly my last definately going back to Audi they seem to be more robust. I believe the Mercedes’ are far too sensitive.

A channel I'd like to recommend is Super Car Tube (SCT), it's a European channel & today they featured the 2020 GLC 200d "Sports Edition" at the 2020 Brussels Car Show. A spectacular looking vehicle & I wonder if that diesel engine would be offered here in the States & if it would have the same transmission issues as the turbo. BTW, I viewed KellyBook YT channel & during their review of the new Audi A3 they were also complaining about the half a second delay in the turbo boost. The reviewer commented that it was dangerous if a truck was coming & you needed to get out of harms way in a hurry! That's why I generally prefer a V6 over a turbo & don't know why over the last ten yrs or so the trend seems to be nothing but turbos, maybe there better on gas mileage because they use a smaller engine, I don't know. But in terms of design Mercedes has nailed the GLC & GLE that's for sure!
Coming from owning 4 or 5 Audi's and buying a 2019 GLC MB I was disappointed with UI and and cheapness on it. The carplay is missing features, the base audio system is a joke, many of the other owners joke how bad it is and the whole UI interface via the screen and wheel interaction is just weak. It's like something they had laying around and slapped it into the SUV thinking it's MB they will deal with it. I mean almost 50k SUV with sound worse than a 2015 Prius.... LED headlights are extra? the list goes on, the biggest joke is the rear cargo door foot opening feature doesn't work. I even asked the dealer but they couldn't get it to open, so I asked it to be looked at when they were doing a warranty item repair and they forgot to check ... So If your going to buy a MB, look at the Audi and BMW and compare the inside and operation of the head unit and stuff.... '
Why would anybody switch to sport plus at a parking lot? It is a nonsense. Why people complain about heavy / hard steering when they intentionally switch to sport mode? And again the sport mode is for fast driving not for e.g. 15 mph, the gear box becomes jerky because that's the way sport mode gives you feedback. You buy a fish and you are disappointed that it cannot fly in the air or climb a mountain.
So spend $10 and buy a USB-C cable, that’s no big deal.

I know how to rob your honda civic....
decent review, but you have to drive the car and not let it drive you
Who has 50k for a car but doesn't have 5-10€/$/£ for cable/adapter???
No keyless entree. What🙂
I dislike the ,don't forget your key, every time you enter and exit the car,
Doug Boczulak: And my wife still forgets her key! Unbelievable
Switch the engine off.....😂
What a hero.
Of course the Hey Mercedes future is meant to be activated only if you say only the two words. You say it in a sentence, it shouldn’t go off.
BTW, the new iPhones come with USB C cables and I would say, if you can afford this car, you could get a charging cable that fits the car and there are cables out there where both ends are USB C, so get your sh-it together.
The sport future is meant to be more rough, just as it is with manual transmission, but ok, how you should figure out, right?
And yeah, you switching to sport mode when driving in a parking lot and wondering it steers a bit heavier, and then in the next sentence you telling the people that the heavy steering applies only with higher speeds? A complete saying against each other, or do you race in the parking lot?
BTW, the shift paddles reacting all the time the same way, but you should at some point be able to figure out that you need to apply the same pressure on them when you expecting the same result.
But ok, Americans who driving with sun glasses on in shady weather conditions are most likely just noisy, producing just hot air, without any content and you are their role model. What a clown.
I test drove the 2024 model. Notjerky at all. It's keyless now.
Sport mode in a 4-cylinder/4200 lb SUV would be disappointing, the AMG 43/63 takes care of the driving factor.
My GLC300 non 4matic weighs roughly 3800lbs but of course the 4matic and bigger engines will weigh it down a little more.
Keyless entry is just stupid because it is much easier for car thieves to steal your car. I am very glad I don't have keyless entry.
I’ve owned a 2017 350d amg glc premium plus with 36000 miles since nov 2021, I have to say the only thing it’s got going for it is the looks especially in grey. unfortunately the drivers seat is delaminating from the threads needless to say they are made of VINYL and the dealers don’t want to know, the consumption isn’t much good either, the car is dealer maintained, I couldn’t find the car which I originally wanted in the spec I wanted which was a first generation SQ5 plus the range of which is 600+ whilst the glc is just over 400 (same size tanks) this is my first MB and certainly my last definately going back to Audi they seem to be more robust. I believe the Mercedes’ are far too sensitive.
Great review. Thank you
You can change your own Word in the Menu. Change "Hey Mercedes " in hey Benz.... or something else.
Imagine buying a 50k car and not having 10 quid to buy a USB C cable
Turn off “hey Mercedes” in the settings. Problem solved. Who uses voice activation anyway except for Hey Siri. Geez.
Lag is a big thing for me
I've been with the GLC 2017 since and had tried the 2020 also, it's the same. Suspension is the worst part on this car, it feels like a groceries cart whenever you drive on the slightest bad road (almost the same in the 2020) Transmission and throttle combo: is indeed super jerky when doing stop and go in either traffic jams or making quick stops.Just those 2 things are to the point that it's embarrassing to me whenever I have guests on board "my Mercedes" so I must be be extra careful about my driving to avoid those situations as much. Throttle is artificially slowed in an exaggerate way in comfort mode and very frustrating to me, I find it dangerous at times when you need to insert yourself in traffic from an intersection! this means you will never get the power you want when you need unless you almost floor the gas paddle and takes at least a good 2 secs. The sport mode is way better for that and I would keep it on at all times but 2 problems; 1) the RPM will raise by 1/2x1000more as long as sport mode is on 2) Even if you don't care about gas and pollution in sport you must enable back at every start of the engine. Sound system before 2020 is super bad! no bass, muffled sound no matter how you try to adjust it sound like ass, such insult at this price point, Kia as a way better sound system in my friend's sorento by far. Air suspension already leaking from visit to chalet, and no I have not used the car in any abusive way!! More very annoying things: after a while the center console cracks during driving as well as my driver's side door plastics. They did fixed it at the dealer by tightening the screws but it only lasted for a month! Then you also get the air-vent traps adjusting airflow inside the vents that started making noise every 20 seconds or so. For the 2020 I would also like to point out that they could have refreshed the outdated front grill design. I would also say that the paint is of a poor quality, not durable. the inner lower door steps will get rusty quickly. My recommandation: Don't buy! There are way better built and durable vehicles out there that will give you much better value for your $$ especially if you don't lease. And between the 2, as I also know BMWs, I believe the X3 is a much better car and experience all around.
My Mercedes Benz GLC coupe 2020 has a keyless entry
A channel I'd like to recommend is Super Car Tube (SCT), it's a European channel & today they featured the 2020 GLC 200d "Sports Edition" at the 2020 Brussels Car Show. A spectacular looking vehicle & I wonder if that diesel engine would be offered here in the States & if it would have the same transmission issues as the turbo. BTW, I viewed KellyBook YT channel & during their review of the new Audi A3 they were also complaining about the half a second delay in the turbo boost. The reviewer commented that it was dangerous if a truck was coming & you needed to get out of harms way in a hurry! That's why I generally prefer a V6 over a turbo & don't know why over the last ten yrs or so the trend seems to be nothing but turbos, maybe there better on gas mileage because they use a smaller engine, I don't know. But in terms of design Mercedes has nailed the GLC & GLE that's for sure!
Coming from owning 4 or 5 Audi's and buying a 2019 GLC MB I was disappointed with UI and and cheapness on it. The carplay is missing features, the base audio system is a joke, many of the other owners joke how bad it is and the whole UI interface via the screen and wheel interaction is just weak. It's like something they had laying around and slapped it into the SUV thinking it's MB they will deal with it. I mean almost 50k SUV with sound worse than a 2015 Prius.... LED headlights are extra? the list goes on, the biggest joke is the rear cargo door foot opening feature doesn't work. I even asked the dealer but they couldn't get it to open, so I asked it to be looked at when they were doing a warranty item repair and they forgot to check ... So If your going to buy a MB, look at the Audi and BMW and compare the inside and operation of the head unit and stuff.... '
The 2020 is a significant upgrade over the 2019 if you’re talking UI wise
you want keyless which is modern tech. but dislike the usbc? hahahahaha funny this guy
You forgot the fact that Android Auto and Apple Carplay isn't full screen! Absolutely most disappointing. The house music is annoying af too.
11 minutes to complain about absolutely nothing
Sport means.....
Why would anybody switch to sport plus at a parking lot? It is a nonsense. Why people complain about heavy / hard steering when they intentionally switch to sport mode? And again the sport mode is for fast driving not for e.g. 15 mph, the gear box becomes jerky because that's the way sport mode gives you feedback.
You buy a fish and you are disappointed that it cannot fly in the air or climb a mountain.
Test drove the x3 and glc 300 ! Bmw way ahead ! Work to do mercedes
just bought the X3, loving it.
But that antiquated BMW interior.... boring and anticlimactic.
I test drove both of those too and chose the glc. No comparison in my mind. The glc is quieter, elegant and smoother by far. To each his own.
Just buy an adapter to get round the usb c problem and stop moaning.
“Jerky” transmission? I’m “out” from this PhD level dissertation on hates. Next..
So basicly he dosent like stuff he dident order/get for free as standard.......get an american car bro.
