Love/Hate

I have owned a 2021 GLB250 for 10 months. I overall love the car but there are some things that are just annoying and frustrating.

Love
Overall look of the car
The feel while driving. Really fun to drive. (I drive a diesel Dodge Ram for work) Love getting into a smaller vehicle.
How much pickup it has for a 4-inline
Digital dash.

Hate
I have to turn the fog lights on every time.
Visor doesn’t extend to block the sun.
Manual steering wheel.
Auto starting the car doesn’t really cool/heat the car because of auto engine shut off. I have to go outside and click the button.
Seat doesn’t move back when car is shut off.

Overall absolutely love the car but my 2011 RX Lexus had more features which is frustrating. I wasn’t able to order the GLB because there was a 6 month wait. If I had to do it again I would build one with all the features I want and wait.

Curious what do you mean by "Manual Steering Wheel"? Do you mean position adjustment?
I read that MB limits the seat movement if you set the seat passed the "B" pillar, for rear passenger safety. I had an opposite issue with the easy "exit/entry" function, where it was programmed wrong and tried to crush me against the steering wheel. The dealer updated software and fixed the issue.

I agree that GLB could have been a "Gem" of a car if MB did not cheep out on little things.

I still enjoy it very much.

Yes I meant position adjustment. Thanks for letting me know about the seat I’ll have to look into it. That’s horrible what happen with your seat. I think I’ll be upgrading to a GLE in two years. Only other thing I wish I had was vented seats.
