2011 BMW 528I

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AT 40 MPH I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION TYPE SOUND. I PULLED OVER AFTER MAKING SURE IT WAS SAFE AND NOTICED MY SUNROOF GLASS HAD SHATTERED INTO A MILLION PIECES. IT LOOKED AS IF IT HAD EXPLODED FROM WITHIN THE CAR OUTWARDS. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND BMW OF AMERICA AND BOTH SAID THAT IT WAS NOT RECALLED AND THEY HAD NOT HEARD OF ANY INCIDENTS SUCH AS THAT. BMW OF AMERICA SUGGESTED I TAKE MY CAR INTO THE DEALER AND HAVE THEM EXAMINE IT AT MY EXPENSE.

THIS MALFUNCTION LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE EVERY TIME I HAVE THAT THIS CAR SERVICED THEY HAVE NEVER TRULY FIXED THE PROBLEM. IT MAY STOP FOR A MOMENT AND THEN ANY RANDOM DAY IT WILL GIVE ME THIS WARNING AS YOU SE IN THE PICTURE PROVIDED. A BIGGER PROBLEM THAT IS UNEXCEPTABLE IS THAT THE CAR KEEPS FLASHING A WARNING ABOUT THE COOLENT IS NEEDED AND THAT IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED OR THERE COULD BE ENGINE DAMAGE. THIS WARNING HAS BEEN THE MAIN CONCER. I HAVE HAD THE COOLENT GO INTO THE ENGINE WHICH CAUSED MY CAR TO SHUT DOWN ON A BUSY HWY 3 SEPERATE TIMES, RISKING A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD FROM BMW OF NORTH AMERICA THAT THEY CARE ABOUT MY CONCERNS AND I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS LITERALLY AFFECTED MY HEALTH AND WELL BEING. I HAVE HUGE ANXIETY ISSUES BECAUSE OF THIS CAR. I HOPE MY LETTER IS HEARD SO THAT I MAY HAVE JUSTICE FOR THIS CAR. I AM OVERWHELMED WITH NERVOUSNES EVERYTIME I DRIVE IT. I FEEL LIKE SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN TO ME ORCSOME ELSE. PLEASE HELP THIS MATTER BECOME RES OLVED!

WE BOUGHT A 2011 BMW 528I WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. WE STARTED TO HAVE ISSUES RIGHT AFTER THAT. PULLING RIGHT, ELECTRONICS FREEZING, CAN NOT UNLOCK THE DOORS WITH KEY FOB, CAN NOT GET OUT FROM CAR BECAUSE DOOR HANDLES DO NOT WORK TIME TO TIME AND OUR 2 YEAR OLD SON GOT LOCKED INSIDE(CAR LOCKED BY IT SELF) AND WE HAD TO BREAK THE WINDOW WHICH TOOK ALMOST 30 MINUTES. BMW SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM AND WENT EVEN FURTHER SOME OF THE ISSUES ARE FEATURES OF THE CAR. OUR KIDS GETTING LOCKED IN THE CAR IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, CAN NOT GETTING FROM THE CAR IS ANOTHER SERIOUS ISSUE. WHAT IF CAR CATCHES A FIRE IN AN ACCIDENT AND WE GET STUCK IN THE CAR. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT IT. I DO HAVE VIDEO RECORDINGS IN MULTIPLIABLE OCCASIONS. EVEN BMW SERVICE TOOK THE CAR FOR THE SAME ISSUES AND CONFIRM IT WAS AN ISSUE. BUT COULD NOT PROVIDE ANY SOLUTION. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO SOMEONE BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES, IT WILL BE ON YOU GUYS IF YOU DO NOT TAKE ACTION IN THE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 BMW 528I. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND THE SUN ROOF INDEPENDENTLY SHATTERED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 65,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 BMW 528I. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND FAILED TO RESPOND. WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AND REDUCING SPEED, THE VEHICLE JERKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT A FAILURE WAS NOT FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

TAKATA RECALL MY 528I BMW IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC HAS A VERY HARD JERK WHEN SLOWING DOWN FEELING AS IF IM BEEEING HIT FROM BEHIND I NOTICED IT WHEN I FIRST GOT MY CAR IT WOULD DO IT INTERMIDETLY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IT ALSO HAS A THROTTLE RESPONSE DELAY WHICH IS ALSO DANGEROUS WHEN GOING INTO TRAFFIC. A RECALL IS NEEDED FOR THIS FIX IT SEEMS TO BE A SOFTWARE ISSUE TO ME BECAUSE WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING IT HOURS LATER THE PROBLEM STOPS BUT COMES BACK WEEKS LATER. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS DATING BACK TO 2011 OF THIS PROBLEM WHERE IS THE RECALL?

ACCELERATION DELAY, THE CAR HAS A VERY DISTINCT LAG WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL, FROM A STOP OR MOVING, SOMETIMES UP TO 2 SECONDS. IT HAPPENS IN TOWN ON THE FREEWAY ANY TIME YOU PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN ON THE GAS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU TRY TO GET INTO TRAFFIC. YOU THINK YOU HAVE TIME TO GO, STEP ON THE GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENS. THEN THE CAR SLOWLY STARTS TO GO. MY WIFE AND I HAVE BOTH ALMOST BEEN HIT BY OTHER CARS BECAUSE WE TRY TO MOVE OUT IN TO TRAFFIC AND NOTHING HAPPENS. I HAVE CONTACT THE LOCAL BMW DEALER, THEY CANNOT FIX IT, I CONTACTED BMW GENIUS TEAM, AND THEY TELL ME IT'S NORMAL AND HAVE NO FIX. IT IS NOT SAFE OR NORMAL. IS THERE ANY THING WE DO TO MAKE BMW FIX THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM? DON'T GET ME WRONG I LIKE THE CAR, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GET KILLED IN IT.
