Bad Review

I was just googling, came across ConsumerReport review of 2010 GLK, and was surprised to know it was not a good one. Why?

To ollsanta:

Consumer Reports looks at vehicles in a different light then we do. Even though they get reviews from owners and we ***** and complain about things that go wrong we still really like our vehicles. MB caters to a real small audience in the US by comparison to others.

To those who over extend themselves monetarily, maybe they think they should expect more. Yeah, MB is not perfect but I would assume that you like your vehicle and thats all that matters. IMO

none
If you look at the reason the GLK received a poor reliability score it looks like its due to stuff like power hardware and body hardware. Basically interior parts and possibly the rear power liftgate issue people have had issue with. That's the only areas that it was rated poorly in, in terms or reliability by CR. If that's the case then I think that's pretty good.

Hey there... easy... I have a Volvo... 2010 C30 R-Design, factory drop, iPd tower strut, anti-sways, intake and down pipe, Evolve ECU tune @ 300hp/300. Got it OSD drove all over Sweden, Denmark, Holland, Belgium and Germany, thee best time of our lives. We got it before they sold out to Geely, I wouldn't buy one now. In 2012, I'm going to try to get the spouse hooked on a new MB

CR editors are idiots. They should be part of the sears and kmart entity. Maybe the federal government should own them.

I suspect you will agree that yours is not the typical Volvo...
