2022 GLC won’t start
I have a 300 GLC that has been at the dealer for two weeks. It has 7000 miles on it. I got in last week to start it and it would not start. Dashboard lit up with “release parking brake.” After twenty minutes of pushing and pulling on parking brake it started. Took rite to the dealership. The car did the same thing for the dealer. It finally started after a bit. The computer stated it had a bad relay. Relay was replaced, and the car has had the same issue. Will start once and if it is turned off will not restart for twenty minutes to two hours. I’m about ready to call MB of North America. I think I have a lemon. Anyone else with the issue??

Same issue
I just had the same problem my car is sitting at the grocery store right now. Same amount of miles and same codes did you find out what was causing it?

Most unusual, I would first put battery under hood on an overnight charge. Not uncommon for gremlins like this to be caused by main battery either run down from short trips, battery starting to fail or terminals dirty, try some WD40 on + and - terminals under plastic cover. Battery can trick testing to show ok, but will fail under start load.
Good luck.
If you have a portable jump power starter, connect to battery terminal and Neg post then try starting car, additional volts may help and indicate issue.

2022 GLC Not Starting fixed
My 2022 GLC sat at the dealership for three weeks after not starting with 7700 miles on it. It would start every now and then, but even the dealership was perplexed. They ended up replacing the battery and all of the relays. Never really figured it out, but was told it was most likely one of the relay switches. Seems to be working now just fine.

This just happened to our 23 GLC too. Don't even have 50 miles on it yet. Bought 2 days ago. Got out of car and waited 5 minutes, got back in and same issue. Waited another 5 minutes and got back in another time, then it fixed it??
Back to dealer you go! Service tech said he's seen this a few other times too, FWIW.

2023 mercedes benz glc 4matic electrical issue
I have a similar issue with the car not starting. I purchased it new and it has approx 400 miles on it and it's been at the dealer for 15 days tomorrow. They say it's a software glitch and they are working on a fix. They wanted to return it to me and I said no until it's fixed. They told me that there are many others like me with similar issues.
Dissapointed

See if your dealership is willing to do the following: https://mbworld.org/forums/glc-class...ml#post8759932
