Description of the problem	Soon after purchasing my glc300 in march 2016 the brakes started squealing badly, both going forward but mostly backing up. After many trips back to dealership they finally told me there was a problem with brake pads. Mercedes came out with a fix and i have had it done 2-3 times and the brake squeal has not been fixed. At this time it is going back again so they can recreate the squeal. From all my research i have found out that they knew there was a problem and it was never disclosed to me when i bought the car, had i know i would never have bought this car. I feel i am left with a problem that may never be fixed. Ironically i have had a 2017 glc300 as a loaner and it also has the same brake squeal while backing up. Again they continue to sell these card knowing they are not fixed.
