Buying a used 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 4MATIC? Check these 3 recalls first
The headline item is a critical recall for a steering bolt that may loosen, shared with the EQE. A high-severity recall covers a dashboard display that can go blank while driving, and a medium one addresses insufficient roof pillar crash padding. None carries stop-driving or park-outside guidance. Ten unverified owner complaints are on file with NHTSA, weighted toward electrical system with some structure and collision-avoidance entries; two report injuries, none report a crash or fire.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Get written confirmation the steering bolt recall was completed
- Ask whether the instrument display has ever gone blank or been replaced
- Confirm the roof pillar padding recall remedy was performed
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Mercedes-Benz dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
