2025 GLE 450E Issue
I'm by no means a car person so some of the things I may describe here may sound dumb but I need some help. I had a 2024 GLE 450E for about 8 months until I found a great deal for a 2025 GLE 450E. After about 2 rides in my new car I hear a fluttering noise when I'm in Electric mode for the first 5 minutes of my drive, then it goes away. It always happens when I'm accelerating. I took it to Mercedes and they said they can't replicate the noise so I'm out of luck. Then most recently I was driving on the highway going ~70MPH when the paddle shifter stopped working and brought me from Hybrid (-) mode where the brake regen is fairly high to Hybrid (Auto) where there's very little regen. I let off the gas and it didn't brake and I had to slam on my brakes. This is the second time this has happened. None of the above occurred on my 2024 and I'm really annoyed as the '25 is fully loaded and it's been in the shop 3 times already. Has any of the above happened to any other GLE 450E drivers? Or would anyone know the cause of any of it? Thanks in advance.
