In July-August 2025 the dealer documented misfire codes and a loud screech after cold starts. Its Aug-Sept repair order recorded the check-engine light returning one day after coil work, coolant entering a cylinder, and head-gasket/injector work. The dealer reported a completed test drive Sept. 17, 2025; the owner reported the vehicle broke down again Sept. 24 after only a short period of use. The service manager later described coolant/oil mixing and damaged crankshaft bearings, but said the precise cause/timing could not be determined; an engine rebuild was performed. In January 2026 the vehicle again had misfire codes, engine knocking, very low compression in one cylinder and leaking valve seats, leading to a new cylinder head under a warranty extension. A screeching startup noise has again been reported in 2026, including a recent noise when moving/reversing. The current source is unknown. The concern is possible recurrence of an engine-related failure that could disable the vehicle in traffic. There was no reported crash, fire or injury. The vehicle and repair records are available for inspection; the dealer has been asked for a documented cold-start diagnosis. This report does not claim the current noise has been diagnosed as a manufacturer defect.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"MERCEDES-BENZ","productModel":"GLE 350 4MATIC","manufacturer":"Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC"}]}]}
