I have had my GLC300e for 1 week now and noticed today that the easy entry/exit feature is not working for the seat. The steering wheel moves back when i open the door to get out but the seat stays stationary. I’ve tried turning the feature in and off but can’t seem to get the seat to move with the feature turned on.

Am I missing something or do I need to go back to the dealer?

It only works on the steering wheel I'm afraid no seat movement as far as I know

 

[Doc]

Hmm, that’s so strange. It definitely doesn’t say that in the manual. It’s supposed move both. So I assume your seat doesn’t work either?

Not sure about the GLC but on the GLE there is a setting in the mbux for off, steering wheel only or steering wheel and seat.

 

[Doc]

Yeh same with the GLC. I have Steering & Seat turned on but seat doesn’t move.
Let me ask you this. With the memory buttons on the door, do you need to keep your finger pressed on the button to change the seat profile for that number until it stops moving or do you just press and release the number, then the seat does it’s thing?

 

[Philamg]

Just press once on GLE but seem to remember on GLC I had to keep finger on button, sure we were told at the time it was a safety feature.

 

[Doc]

Ah ok as it’s not clear in manual. It just says press relevant number. Since it didn’t do it without my finger pressed until it’s finished I thought maybe there is something wrong with the automatic programming of the seat 🤷🏽‍♂️
Sounds like I need to go into the service department and get a definitive answer.

More chance on getting a definitive answer from members of the forum,

on my GLC Premium plus pack the seats do move backwards when set on MBUX and when I open the door.

I have the seat package - I also have to press and hold the relevant memory button on the door. They're not linked in any way to Mercedes Me profiles either.

If you're tall - and you've set the seats quite far back anyway they wont move back I dont think.

@Inkytog I’m 5”8 so not super tall. I have the seat package too and set on the MBUX. When I open the door only the steering wheel moves. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤯 It’s such a minor issue but it is annoying me. I believe it should be working as yours does.

The more I dig about the MBUX and the GLC- the crippled auto parking and so on - the MBUX implementation is shoddy.
MB have slapped a couple of screens in and not built the car around the system so it’s just not what it is on other cars.
Digging into my car it’s just been a voyage of discovery learning what isn’t there and what is on all the other cars that have MBUX.
