2015 GL 450
New Owner

Hello,
I'm about to purchase a GL 450 2015 92K miles V6 with about every package except the off road package I wanted. I give up on trying to find one it's been over a year and a half looking.
I shows Suspension service/repair in Jan 2021. And the dealer that has it says the suspension coded and they are serving it before I drive it.
Should I be concerned with the Jan/Oct suspension . Previous service was through Mercedes, They sent it some where else.
add. It's at mercedes-benz dealer for calibration. Hope to have it by end of week.
Thanks

The X166 suspension components seem pretty robust. With the 164, it was definitely more of an issue.

$500 to as much as $1200. I think I paid around $700. It's a total ripoff so call around if you have multiple dealers in your area.

UGGGH, If I ever get it. Dealer found another part to be replaced on suspension. Still waiting. I'm so ready to be done with the Jeep. I know it will be all fixed when I get it, but ........I wanted it for my trip on Monday.
