Hello Scotty. So my mom recently financed a 2019 Mercedes Benz GLC300 4-Matic with 35 thousand miles. It’s been working fine lately, I just want to know of any problems and costs to look out for with this type of vehicle...It has the turbo 4-Cylinder and makes 241hp.
Still relatively new to know of all possible future issues, but you may want to see what recalls/TSBs have been issued so far here:

Those are complex vehicles, so also expect potential electrical issues to crop up as time goes on. I hope she has a nice comprehensive extended warranty to go with the vehicle that will cover all those. You don’t want to own those without a warranty (both bumper to bumper and powertrain).
Cross your fingers & pray..
Well, pray that it doesn't break down because Mercedes cars especially newer ones have a whole host of electrical problems, IMO more than BMW and Audi. Also, most Mercedes SUVs are made in the USA and they are just not as well made as the ones in Germany so that's another thing to keep in mind. Just do ur best in taking care of it doing all the maintenance and not driving the heck out of it.
