GLC 43 (2020) MercedesMe app is saying the starter V12 battery is critical / low. There were no issues at all before.

It’s been very cold and rainy last couple days; haven’t started my car in about 4 days.

Any thoughts?

No offense to fishbowl, but there has got to be a better Reddit thread on this.

Fair, was just sourcing opinions. General consensus on Reddit is that the MercedesMe app is overly sensitive. Just need to run the car for a bit to let it charge.

I have a 2019 E450 wagon and my car does this now and then. It’s super sensitive. The car always starts no problem, but it does sit in the garage a couple weeks at a time sometimes not being used, id just start and drive the car. I solved it by putting a battery tender on it when I know I’m not using it for a while.

Alright auto fishes, I’m in the market for a entry level luxury car. Open to used or a lease. I don’t plan to use it as a daily driver, live in an HCOL. Only restriction is that I’d like to keep my monthly costs at no more than $600-$700/month (including insurance, financing / fees, etc; have a parking spot already). Doesn’t have to be a European badge. Thoughts?
