    Great vehicle

    Although the transmission is not the smoothest, and the ride can be a little rough, it’s a great car that has a lot of great features. Best in class and great styling

    2022 GLE AMG 53 - not what you'd expect

    We were really excited about this car. All expectations, out the window. Car has 1500 miles on it now and the laundry list is 5 pages long. Will not list them all, but here are a few. Transmission - kicking on the downshift real hard between 3rd and 2nd gear. Supposedly readapted by the dealer. We'll see, no expectation that it will fix it. Drivers side mirror, no dimming, not even available. 100k car, really? Same with sunglasses holder, was installed on 2021 63. Same frame same everything. Variety of software issues - including lack of customisation. Once again, for 100k, not impressed at all with Mercedes.
