What 13 owners told NHTSA about the 2022 Mercedes-benz GLB

Brake over heats because of rust caused by rain which builds up causing brakes to freeze up. Explanation from dealer. In fact told us we need to dry brakes off if we drive in rain and park in garage for more than 2 days or we will have it happen again. Brakes freeze and car locked up and can’t move it. We bought the car used had it inspected by a MBD in Atlanta G. Bulkhead , told breaks were like new. Mileage 23,666 miles. Put on about 4000 miles now brakes gone froze up from rain. Garage kept. While driving car we were noticing almost like the breakers were on but not stepping on break. A pulling like action. Seemed like emergency brake was on.

Coordinate this complaint with previous complaints reference 11569682 and 11569502, As of last night the car has 1136 miles. I have thoroughly tested the car to the best of my ability and set and reset the settings. The hill decent has only engaged twice. The car is supposed to read speed limit signs and it does show up in the instrument panel but the car speeds up randomly i.e. from 35 to 50 and above to not limited to 35. The adaptive speed control at random will malfunction the car will not slow down and brake. This has happened several times. When turn signal is engaged and you enter turning lane the car may slow down or not. This vehicle I was told is a MBUA corporate vehicle held back at MBUSA for over 2 years then auctioned. Fletcher Jones Las Vegas had the vehicle on the lot with 47 miles and sold it to me with 48 miles. There is no maintenance or service record the driver assist system, hardware, software system was checked, calibrated, repaired or tested. Given the mileage the car was not road tested. " THIS VEHICLE IS A ROAD HAZARD WAITING FOR AN ACCIDENT TO HAPPEN" It needs to be repaired, road tested, and certified safe by MBUSA and Fletcher Jones. What is the secret and reason why MBUSA held back this car and then 2 years later auction it off? My wife nearly rearended a car that had slowed down and. The driver assist failed to slow down and stop the car. I have experienced this and other experience's listed above several times and sometimes 50% of the time and have to manually engage the brake to slow down, stop, and disengage driver assist system.

All advance driver assistance system has a 50% work fail reliability. It may work it may fail to work, I bought the cat from a Mercades Dealer in Las Vegas with 48 miles on it. The vehicle has approx 900 now. The driver assist system fails daily, it is unreliable, dangerous and a hazard to occupants and others. It needs to be inspected and repaired, recalled.
