  Never Again for German Engineering - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By Imakeugiggle - February 6 - 1:41 pm

  Steering column will not adjust up or down. This is a power titt and the dealer says we have to pay to maintain the lubrication. Ive been a service director for Honda,Toyota and Acura. Without a doubt the German engineers need to visit Japan. We have to remove most of the front fender to replace a headlight bulb.....absolutely ridiculous. Four words for this car....For Sale...Never Again. Back to Acura and Infinity.

  THE GLK 350 MYTH- EDITH - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By EDITH - September 11 - 9:07 am

  This is a great car until you become familiar with it. It has looks,style and attractiveness,but the pros generally stop there. None of the controls are intuitive. The voice commands only control the nav system. My 2014 Honda Accord Touring could make calls,turn on the air, ch ange the temperature and several other things. This car is luxury in name only,because it has the Mercedes name tag. In my personal opinion, the cost to value ratio is about 75%. I would not buy this vehicle again

  Baby Benz SUV - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By Robert Socha - May 4 - 12:48 am

  Looked at this as needed something good on gas as switched from Telecommuter to having to go into an Office. The estimated mpg of 24-33 with combine 29mpg very attractive. Also, wanted AWD and the higher sitting position. Unfortunately, vehicle is not made for a taller person (Im 63"). I Could not find a comfortable driving position even with all the adjustments. Barely could get in/out of backseats as the rear doors are small and do not open that far. The dashboard/instrument cluster color combination of Silver/Gold/White made it extremely difficult to see the numbers on the gauges. Overall, the vehicle was just too small for me and my family of 5.

  Smoth ride, wind noise, slow rain wiper - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By jennifer - March 29 - 8:09 pm

  This car ride very smoothly, but like the other reviewer, my GLK350 also has wind noise. And its always in the passenger front side. I took it in to the dealer and they had the window shield replaced. The situation still not improved. I didnt hear that noise when I drove Avalon or any other verticals. It was raining really hard today and my rain wipers werent fast enough for me to see the road, this were never happen in my past with the other cars. I will not buy this car again. * Correction: Dealer replaced windshield seal at first (did not work). Finally they replaced the front windshield glass, that got rid of the annoying wind noise.

  Great Mini SUV - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By MJMROVER - August 27 - 8:22 pm

  Weve had our GLK for 5 months now and love it! Our other vehicle is a Land Rover LR3 (also an amazing vehicle!!), so we didnt need another large SUV, but still loved the practicality of a SUV design. The GLK replaced our 2004 Lexus RX330. Dont let the GLKs timid design fool you. The 302HP and German suspension makes this car fun to drive. Its main CON would be the rear seat space and storage space. Another four inches would have made a huge improvement. I have not experienced any of the wind noise that some complain about. Overall, very happy with our purchase.

  My little run around SUV - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By Donna Brazill - July 29 - 6:21 am

  I love the size of this vehicle! I spend thousands of miles on the road in my car each year and I feel safe and comfy in this car like SUV. My husband loves to drive it! Its diesel and I have (after 16k) miles been averaging 37-45 miles per gallon. The seats are still pretty firm and hard, and after 26k miles still not as comfy as I had hoped. The navigation system is not very intuitive and a bit cumbersome to operate...time consuming actually. I do not live in the city so once I go off a paved road its essentially useless to me. This is a huge problem in rural areas. Had I known this prior to purchase I would not have bought this car. You must be stopped to enter data which can be a problem if youre already lost in a dicey area! In rural areas where I frequently travel, the turn by turn directions are non-existent. Diesel engine is quite a bit noisier than Toureg Diesel I previously owned. I have not been able to get the voice command training working so I can accept calls or enter directions verbally. Overall, this is a nice car and perfect for my needs, very responsive on curvy roads and mountains. Not terribly sure footed in heavy snow. Lots of light, large windshield and sunroof. The rear seats lay down nicely for larger cargo area and perfect for taking dogs along. Nice visibility overall. I am kind of surprised that I need new brakes already as my other cars went many more miles before needing any attention.

  It was such a good lease deal with took two! - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By pete albano - April 10 - 7:10 am

  After 5 volvos between the 2 of us, and a Land Rover, VW and Honda in between and with Volvos reluctance to negotiate their high leases, the MB 2015 GLK AWD was not only refreshing but the most luxurious riding vehicle we have owned to date! Edmunds is right, this car is solid, over 4,000 pounds in weight, holds the road and with an an engine you cannot hear. The acceleration has no turbo lag and we are spoiled with the quiet, smooth ride and the engines effortless changing of gears we cannot hear or feel it. (Take that volvo and VW) I am 61 215 male athletic build, front seats are comfy, head room we love, harder to find cars with expansive head room. The AWD will be much appreciated in the harsh Minnesota winters. The safety mechanisms are second to none. Plus knee airbags for the driver! The 19 inch tires plant you firmly on the pavement but dont be fooled, this baby can get up and GO! We are in love with the engines power for highway driving. Truly this is luxury at its best. Volvos are nice, but Benz is superb! The best thing about both our 2015 GLKs are the lease rates. MB leases its demos (take note Volvo, thank you for rejecting my off on your 2015 Volvo xc70 demo which after my offer sat on the lot for 3 months!) My GLK is red, black leather no sunroof or manual gate but everything else. $329 month 2 year lease 7500 a year (yeah we dont drive much) My partner, 2015 GLK white, tan leather, wood dash, dual sunroof and power gate $350 a month 2 year lease 7500 a year. It was $3k down on EACH vehicle, hefty, but leasing costs. We look forward to the redesign and re badging the 2016 GLC and look forward to a long long long relationship with MB. (take that Volvo!)

  Awesome car for a great price! - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By Marbelly Walker - March 1 - 5:18 pm

  I got this car as a demo car with almost 8,000 miles for a great price. The car has a lot of space and it looks very nice.

  so far so good - 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class
  By Brent Clarke - May 2 - 7:05 am

  Bought this low mileage GLK 4Matic and have driven for a month including 900 mile trip. Car is very quiet and accelerates well. Only problem so far was a dead battery in a proximity key. Navigation and audio system are a challenge to understand basic issues like setting radio presets without breaking out the manual.
