2022 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class Check Engine Light Codes

The most common check engine light codes for a 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class include P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P013x (oxygen sensor circuits), and P0171/P0174 (fuel trim lean conditions). Ignoring each code can lead to escalating costs: misfires (P0300) will ruin catalytic converters and raise repair bills significantly; P0420 left unchecked can necessitate expensive emissions system work; faulty oxygen sensors or fuel trim codes compromise fuel economy and can cause drivability issues. At Mercedes-Benz of Lynnfield, our technicians interpret codes in context—using road tests and OEM procedures—to isolate root causes rather than chasing symptoms. That accuracy reduces repeat visits and delivers immediate and long-term savings. We provide clear estimates, OEM parts, and warranty-backed repairs; remember warranty-covered work must be done at a certified dealership to remain valid. For convenience, schedule appointment online and review current service specials to save on diagnostics and repairs.
