AMG GLB35
Posing these questions for my mom who purchased a 2021 AMG GLB35 about a month or so ago. She has compiled a list of issues with this car since she pulled out of the parking lot a few weeks ago. Does anyone have any insight on any of these?
1. Test drove the car in dry weather- drove like a dream. We have since had some not so great weather here in PA and she has noticed that the car slides (the back wheels in particular) and doesnt do well in even the slightest bit of snow. I told her from what I read here that though this is a 4 matic it doesnt drive in 4 matic until it hits a surface to warrant switching over to it. I feel like it should have noticed that spots were slippery though and changed to 4 matic but it appears no to so much. She has all weather tires also.
2. The clock saga continues - will never show the correct time
3. 4matic inoperative shows up on her dash to no avail. Ive read that this could be as simple as a system reset but maybe that has something to do with her lack of traction on wet roads?
My whole family has owned a number of mercedes all 4 matics in the past and havent encountered this. Any info would be appreciated!
