While turning my vehicle to the left or right, I hear a loud screeching noise on the street. I also feel as though there is a hesitation while excelerarting on the highway. The Glk350 2014 is on a C class frame which II think is too small to carry all of the weight of the vehicle. This type of vehicle should have been on N eclass frame.
