Are Mercedes SUVs reliable?

I’m in the market for a new luxury SUV. I really like Mercedes for its features, power, and performance. However, I haven’t read much about how reliable they are. Are Mercedes-Benz SUVs generally considered reliable?

While some
Mercedes SUVs can run for 200,000 miles
or more, Mercedes SUVs are generally considered only somewhat reliable—especially compared to other brands on the market. Mercedes gets a 3-star out of 5-star reliability rating from Repair Pal, ranking it 27th out of 32 automakers.
That isn’t to say that your Mercedes is just going to fall apart one day. It just means that you may need to keep a watchful eye on your
basic maintenance schedule
and that repair costs are higher than other brands. The average annual repair cost for a Mercedes is around $908, so budget accordingly.
Budgeting for maintenance is a vital part of owning a car, but then again, so is budgeting for
car insurance
