Vehicle must be equipped with the Driver Assistance Package.

You might be missing the camera that reads the speed signs as well, oh well, I guess your alternative is to use waze.

Yes, as said it's part of the Driver Assistance Package. Google Maps, Waze and older cars that display speed limits can only display what's in their database. Those speed limits are often wrong, for example if there's construction or other temporary speed limit restrictions, they show wrong information. So the modern systems such as the one MB uses, use the cameras in the windshield to recognize the actual speed limit signs and show the real speed limit as it might be different from the database. Some makes still offer basic speed limit information in the instrument cluster, but MB doesn't offer the basic kind, so like all other driving assistance features, it's therefore part of the optional ADAS package. This information is available on mbusa.com, so one can do their research before buying the car making sure it's configured with all the desired features.

So, does that mean I don't have the Augmented Reality Video for Navigation either? That would **** me off. It doesn't say anywhere on the build site that you need the Driver Assistant Package for that to work. I can't find the menu items for that, so I guess I know the answer.

For the GLC 300 it's neither listed as part of the Exclusive Trim, nor the Pinnacle Trim.

I know for sure when I ordered my car it was listed in the Pinnacle Trim (which I have). In the three months it took to get my car, they must have deleted it. I also wanted to use the DashCam feature, but now I can't use that either. They still charged me $4,300 for the package without the Augmented Video Navigation. I know for sure it was there when I ordered the car. Color me pissed off. I have seen numerous videos of people with a GLC300 using the feature.

They should have discounted the Pinnacle Trim at least $500 for deleting that feature. They never notified me.

Not sure where you saw it. I attached the order guide for the 2025. This one was uploaded in July of last year and it's not in there, so it looks like it was never there for 2025. It may have been offered on the 2024. Price and available options are subject to change from model year to model year.

Traffic Sign Assist no longer works in many countries with MB camera in the new model even though the car is equipped with all options, but it seems that MB no longer supports these countries and I really don't know why to do it this way as this option is very important to complete the full ADAS package? Does anyone have an official explanation from Mercedes Benz about this problem?

I did not use the order guide. I used the MB build it site (which is different), and it DID have it listed. Actually, I brought in the printout from that site to my dealer. On the official build sheet for my car that the dealer sent in, under Pinnacle Line it lists MB Navigation and MBUX Navigation Premium. What is MBUX Navigation Premium? But that's not the only thing Mercedes messed up, I ordered an illuminated star, but I did not get one. It is either not installed, or it is broken right out of the box - to be determined next week. Also, I ordered a Metal Weave Center Console, but they installed the disgusting Piano Black. My dealer is going to order a replacement at his cost. We'll see how that works out. Not too happy so far...

The factory, once it picks up an order, may at their discretion drop options for various reasons. The build sheet should state at the bottom something to the extent of subject to change. So once the car arrives you need to check the window sticker to confirm it was built as ordered. If not then you have the option to refuse delivery and have the dealership order another one or find one exactly configured as you ordered. This happened very infrequently before the pandemic, but is fairly common since the pandemic due to parts shortages and other reasons. In the past they used to delay production until all parts for the build are available to pick, but it's now become common place to go ahead with the build and just drop stuff that's not available. They have excess production capacity due to the shrinking demand of cars, so if the workers don't have enough orders to build, they'll have to furlough them or they'll just sit around, so it's better for them to just build the car and ship it to the dealer. If the customer refuses delivery, the dealer can just sell it to the next guy.

All of that is easy to say, but hard to do. It took three months to order this car. I am not about to spend another three months waiting for another one. There is not a lot in the US that has the car as I ordered it. I took delivery during the daytime, so checking that the star was illuminated was almost impossible. I had no reason to believe that it wasn't. The list of options is three pages long. To check out each one would take me days. In any case, the Illuminated Star was listed on the Monroney. I also paid $500 for it. The dealer has made me whole on the center console. He has ordered the part and will eat the cost. The dispensation of the star issue has yet to be determined. It is possible that it is defective. As an interesting aside, I ordered my C-Class, and it was built with sport suspension - a $250 option that I didn't pay for. It was NOT listed on the Monroney. I suspected I had it installed because the ride was so bone jarring. The dealer swore up and down my car didn't have it. I argued with them for months about this, and I finally found a web site that would list by VIN in detail every single item on a car. Sure enough - there it was - Sport Suspension. I hated it because the ride was so bad. The dealer still denied it until I brought them the printout and forced them to check the part numbers on the suspension parts. They finally conceded I was right. As the years have gone by, I have gotten used to it, and I actually like how well it improves the handling. The moral of that story is it is sometimes hard to check every item on delivery.
Unfortunately, since the pandemic ordering cars has become a bit of a clusterf**k. I've custom ordered every car I ever owned. Never was it this bad. The whole industry is falling apart. I totally get what you are saying. It's not acceptable, but it is the current situation. I took delivery of my last ordered car in 2019 just before the world went under. I have no plans to order another one any time soon. It has all gone to hell in a handbasket as far as I'm concerned.

You don't have to check every individual item. What I meant is to check the optional items you added and make sure they are listed on the Monroney sticker. If the star is listed and it's not working, then it's defective. If it's not installed but listed on the sticker then they have to fix it, because the Monroney sticker has to be correct by law. Everything listed on there has to actually be on the car, otherwise they are in trouble.

The illuminated star is impossible with the parktronics camera installed in the star. I wanted it in my 2025 GLC 300 couple but it was either or! I choose to ditch it despite my affinity for it. I choose practicality.

The dealer got the lighted star to work. I forgot to ask if it was not installed, or it was just defective.
