What owners wrote
Three weeks after buying the glc300 4matic the engine misfires, got stranded in AC new jersey, the car was at the dealer for 3 weeks, they replaced all fuel injector/coils and it kept happening, then the fuel module got replaced and it ran fine for 4 weeks and the problem came back, got stranded in boston, the car was at the dealer for 2 weeks, this time they replaced the engine control unit (today 4-22-16), I'm picking it up tomorrow.
When I start my car there is strong gas odor in the cabin for the first 3-4 hours of driving. Also there is a moldy smell in the warmer months as well
