The Mercedes-Benz GL320 is a part of the GL-Class lineup, and it's the perfect marriage between luxury and functionality in a full-size luxury crossover SUV. This vehicle has five doors and a front engine with a four-wheel-drive layout (4MATIC) to appeal to performance enthusiasts as well as those requiring all-weather capability. At its core is a 3.0 liter V6 turbo diesel engine (OM642 LS DE30), which boasts 190 kW (255 hp) and 620 Nm (457 lb-ft) of torque. The Mercedes-Benz GL320 can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 7.9 seconds, making it both efficient and powerful. Paired with this engine is a highly responsive 7-speed automatic transmission, which transitions to a smoother-shifting 9-speed post-facelift model shortly. The GL320 also received slight facelifts post-2016, gaining extra features like LED taillights and headlights as well as improved infotainment capabilities such as Apple CarPlay compatibility via an updated COMAND system. After these adjustments were made, the dimensions show that it will be around 5,125 mm long, have a width of about 1,934 mm wide, and stand approximately tall at around 1,850 mm high, with a wheelbase extending to approximately 3,100 mm for ample space inside for your passengers to be comfortable. Mercedes-Benz also integrated advanced driver assistance systems into the vehicle for safety and security purposes, committed to innovation alongside their luxury in this GL320.
The GL320 model of Mercedes-Benz has several problems that are associated with reliability and safety. First, there is a problem with steering where in crucial times like when cornering at high speed, the power steering can fail. This of course poses a threat since the Mercedes-Benz GL320 driver is not well placed to maneuver the car effectively. The problem is more often connected to the fluid system of the rack and pinion or even the power steering pump. This could be a rather difficult and time-consuming procedure to identify this problem and replace the required components. Secondly, there were problems with the equipment of the Mercedes-Benz GL320 particularly the air suspension system and the trailer hitch that threatened the operation's stability and safety. If the air suspension fails, the dynamics of the vehicle tend to become out of control. When it is time to tow something with a trailer hitch, there is no telling if its structural weakness will not snap what you are towing into two before you can even get to where you want to go. Last but not least, within the global Takata recall issue, there are inflators of airbags that explode and are simply waiting for the right moment to endanger the lives of the car's occupants and inflict more harm than if they had not even had airbags at all. Lastly, all of these issues demonstrate the significance of regular and timely maintenance and response to recall notices for achieving dependability and safety in the Mercedes-Benz GL320 model, in particular.
