When operating at 65-70 MPH on a limited access highway and encountering a rough road surface, the vehicle seemed to rather dramatically skip to the side. The GLE450e moved laterally while maintaining the intended forward direction.

(In all events I was driving in the right lane.) This has occurred four times; three of…

Also I was frequently being advised that the steering assist was inoperative and that the stop and go assist was inoperative. On August 21, 2025 when I was driving in I95, the various warnings…

This has happened twice. They “fixed” it and returned it to me and it did it again. I was about to pull out into traffic, once on the interstate and another time on a 2 lane highway… right as I hit the gas to pull out the car lurches forward and dies. Comes to a complete stop. It won’t crank back up, it won’t go into neutral or drive or reverse. The electoral system goes crazy and all lights start going off. One car had to go in the median to avoid colliding with me. I’m waiting on a…

When accelerating in hybrid mode, the vehicle loses power and forcefully reduces speed. A Performance extremely limited message appears on the driver console. Sometimes it goes into turtle mode, limiting performance until the car it is turned off. Sometimes the check engine light comes on, with or without the turtle light.
