GLC Command Screen Rattle/Vibration

Hi All
Does anyone get a vibration or rattle from their Command Screen in their GLC? I can silence it typically by applying a little pressure on the rear cover and pushing forwards or applying some pressure to the top of the screen. Just wish it didn't do it and super nervous about having the dealer pull it apart to try and rectify. Any help or tips appreciated!

I have heard zero rattles of any kind on mine.

I may have had to wait a little longer to get it than I should have but so far (knock on wood) I haven't experienced any of the annoyances that others have had (squeaky brakes, rattles, excessive wind noise, etc). Although, I do sort of have the wiper stutter thing happening.

We noticed a rattle coming from the dash, seems like its coming from behind the steering column and it only happens when driving at higher speeds on the highway. Certainly annoying, but I assume they'll fix it whenever we take it in.

Guys just an update on this - fixed last week by the dealer removing the back of the command screen and applying some felt tape and resealing. Noise gone and cabin peaceful again!

Good to know they were able to fix it, nothing worse than a rattle or a squeak in a new luxury vehicle.

I have the screen rattle on my recently acquired 2016 GLC. It had 10K miles on it when I got it. The screen rattle started 500- 700 miles after I bought it.

I too am curious if it was covered under warranty. I also would find instructions for doing it myself.

Should be covered under the four year/50,000 mile warranty.

2017 C300 4MATIC
Exclamation Rattle

I have a 2017 C300 4MATIC which has recently developed a rattle. It was coming from the centre consol. The dealer identified it as coming from the screen of the Command System and said it involved removing the back of the screen and adding a tape to secure it. On opening the screen it was found to be a broken clip and a new Command System has been ordered. It will be installed on 18th September. Hopefully this will solve the problem or my faith in MB will wane. My previous car was an Audi A5 which I had for 5 years without a single squeek or rattle ever!

I turned my '16 GLC 300 because the rattle was so annoying only to find the same exact rattle in my '20! I won't live with this one for four more years. If the dealer can't fix it I'll trade it in for a Chevy.
