MBUX Malfunction?
When I say, "Hey Mercedes, what's the tallest mountain in the world?" The voice reply is: "Here is a list of mountain peaks ordered by their topological prominence." But, there is no display of said list, nor a voice recitation of the list. On one occasion, MBUX replied by voice that the answer was Mount Everest. (I don't recall the exact wording of the reply, but it was something along of the lines of "Mount Everest is considered the world's tallest peak."). Is MBUX supposed to display lists for generalized information? Why did the answer differ on one occasion? This is a trivial issue to be sure, but I have a number of other issues and I am trying to figure out whether they are all MBUX-related.
Other issues include: (1) Intermittent problem with GPS route guidance discontinuing before the destination has been reached; (2) No internet connection for external devices (e.g., iPhone, iPad, laptop) with the WiFi hotspot. (Obviously, MBUX is making an internal connection to the internet to answer the tallest mountain question.); (3) Intermittent problem with the Welcome Greeting: "Hello <name>"--it does not work every time I start the car; (4) Intermittent speaker problem. The speaker that provides the warning chimes for seatbelt unfastened, driver's door ajar, and Park Assist PARKTRONIC forward proximity occasionally buzzes when making the chime,
Are all of these issues MBUX-related? I have seen on another thread that there is supposed to be a Q4 2022 MBUX software update. Does anyone know whether it has been released yet? Will it be over-the-air, or will I have to take the car into a dealer to get it?

The discontinued route guidance sounds odd, never happened to me. No idea what could cause it. You must have seen a lot of discussions about WIFI hotspot that needs a specific paid subscription.
