Buying Tips for the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLE (V167)
- ✓Test the complex MBUX infotainment system thoroughly; ensure it doesn't freeze or reboot randomly, and verify all software updates have been applied.
- ✓Check for any 48V electrical system warnings; failure of the EQ Boost starter-generator is a known issue that can immobilize the vehicle.
- ✓Inspect the interior trim for rattles and squeaks, particularly from the dashboard and seats, which frustrated many early buyers.
- ✓Ensure the Airmatic or E-Active Body Control suspension functions flawlessly without dash warnings, as repairs to these advanced systems are eye-wateringly expensive.
- ✓Check the large alloy wheels for kerbing and verify tyre tread; replacing premium tyres on 20-inch+ rims is a significant expense.
