2007 BMW 328I

I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AN INDEPENDENT DEALER WITH SOMEWHERE AROUND 60K OR 65K MILES IT NOW HAS AROUND 80K MILES AND SINCE THE CAR HAS BEEN PURCHASED IT HAS HAD ONE PROBLEM AFTER THE NEXT. THE ELECTRICAL FOR THE WINDOWS,MIRRORS,DOOR LOCKS,GPS SYSTEM,HEAD LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I RECEIVED A FAULT WARNING THAT THE OUTSIDE RUNNING LIGHTS OR HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. I HAVE NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND TOOK IT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT WHICH I WAS TOLD OBD CODE READS MISFIRE #2 IGNITION COIL. I HAD THE PARTS REPLACED AND CODES CLEARED AND STILL THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON READING THE SAME FAULT CODE HAD IT CHECKED AGAIN AND WAS TOLD IT IS A NEW PART AND IT HAS BEEN REPLACED AND HE CANNOT FIGURE WHY IT WOULD COME BACK THE SAME THING. THE ONLY EXPLANATION HE HAD FOR ME IS THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM OR THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE OBD COMPUTER. SINCE THEN THE CAR HAS HAD TROUBLE CRANKING, STUTTERS ON TAKE OFF, STALLS AT STOP LIGHTS, I HAVE HAD A LOSS OF POWER IMMEDIATELY WHILE ON GETTING ON THE FREE WAY AND THE CAR SAID REDUCED ENGINE POWER SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NOT LET ME GET OVER SPEEDS OF 20. I HAVE SMELT FUEL WHEN THE AC WAS TURNED ON. HAS BEEN NUMEROUS THINGS ONE AFTER THE OTHER. I WAS LOOKING AT NUMEROUS RECALLS FOR THE ELECTRICAL, THE FUEL PUMP,THE LIGHTS,AND NOW THE AIR BAGS .AND SEAT BELT TENSIONERS. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THE CAR WAS EVER BROUGHT IN TO BE FIXED FROM THE RECALLS, OR IF THE RECALLS EXPIRE. CAUSE I HAVE NOT OWNED VEHICLE VERY LONG

LEFT WORK AT 4:30PM ON 01/06/2016, AS WE TURNED OUT OF PARKING LOT MY 2007 BMW 328I JUST DIED IN MID TRAFFIC. THIS OCCURENCE HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE BUT STALLED MULTIPLE TIME ON WAY BACK HOME. ON THE 6TH OF JAN, THE CAR BEGAN TO OVERHEAT AND BURNING OF BATTERY SMELL. CAR WAS TOWED AS ID CODES WERE CHECKED AND ALL SIGNS HAVE POINTED TO SYSTEM FAILURE. UPON FURTHER REVIEW, 6 OPEN RECALLS WAS RESEARCHED USING MULTIPLE VIN REPORT SITES PAID AND FREE INCLUDING BMWUSA.COM/SAFETY RECALL. WE WERE THEN TOLD TO CONTACT THE BMW CONSUMER AND WE WERE TOLD THAT IF THERE IS NO WARRANTY DUE TO PAST MILAGE, RECALLS WERE NOT OBLIGATED BY BMW CONSUMER. I HAVE ALREADY CONTACTED FABBRINI LAW OFFICE HERE IN CHICAGO REGARDING OUR FEDERAL RIGHTS IN BEING IN A SAFE CAR. HOW MANY LINKS DO WE NEED TO POST IN WHICH STALLING AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN NOTED ON BMWS OWN COMPANY WEBSITE. WE SIMPLY ASK THAT BMW CONSUMER LLC LISTEN TO THIS COMPLAINT LIKE THE MANY OTHERS WHO ARE BEING PUT IN UNSAFE VEHICLES AND WE ASK THAT YOU APPLY YOUR THREE PRONG RULE REGARDING SAFETY HAZARDS SUCH AS THESE THAT WARRANT A REFUND WITH DEAPPRECIATION ADDED, REPLACEMENT OF VEHICLE OR SIMPLY REPAIR THE RECALLS THAT HAVE BEEN NOTED IN THE LAST DECADE AFFECTING MORE THAN MILLIONS WHO ARE LOYAL TO YOUR PRODUCT. WE INTIALLY HAD A 2005 BMW 325I THAT HAD RECALLS AND WE WERE NOT HELPED THEN AND TRADED VEHICLES FOR YET ANOTHER BMW WITH THE HOPES OF BETTER LUCK.
