Weird low coolant warrning

Got this warrning yesterday while parking outside with a little ungle. Checked my coolant chamber and it is about 75% full, what is going on? Minor glitch? Checked this morning in garage and it is same level. I read it happened with older ML models but still the same glitch with 2015?

Had the same issue ... Its very intermittent. Had the dealer check it at my regular service visit. They tested for leaks and found nothing, they just topped it up and its been fine ever since.

A gaggle of MB's
I would say OFTEN coolant is not full when delivered from the factory - shipped 80% to "low full" mark - not "100% full mark" - techs don't check coolant on arriving inspection although they should - and a little/normal loss trips the Low Coolant Warning - all MB models Vance SUV's and German sedans/roadsters etc.
