2012 BMW 750IX

THE TRANSFER CASE ON MY CAR STUTTERS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION OR UNDER MODERATE TO HEAVY BREAKING. TRACTION ON SNOW BECOMES LIMITED BECAUSE THE STUTTERING CAUSE TIRES TO HAVE MORE OR LESS POWER SPONTANEOUSLY. THIS STUTTERING WAS CONFIRMED TO BE A DEFECTIVE TRANSFER CASE WHEN UNPLUGGING THE TRANSFER CASE MODULE. BMW CONFIRMED THE TRANSFER CASE AS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS UNDER 56,000 AT THE TIME OF THIS POSTING.

I HAD TO REPLACE THE GASKETS WHICH COST THOUSANDS AND MY CAR STILL SMELLS LIKE ITS BURNING OIL AND WHEN I PRESS THE GAS THE CAR HESITATES AND I WAS JUST ON THE HIGHWAY TOOK THE CAR TO 70 MILES AND HOUR AND POWERTRAIN MALFUCTION CAME UP AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING MY CAR ON HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT AND AFTER SPENDING ALL THIS MONEY AT BOW REPAIR SHOP STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR ONLY 2,000 MILES SINCE THE WORK WAS DONE AND STILL PROBLEMS

TOOK VEHICLE TO NEW MOTORS BMW, ERIE, PA BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. WAS TOLD THE SEALS WERE BAD AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. REPAIR WAS COMPLETED BY NEW MOTORS AND PICKED UP 7/1/17. ON 7/8/17 I WAS TRAVELING AT 55 MPH ON I 90. FELT A LAPSE IN POWER AND THEN HEARD A GRINDING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND AFTER EXITING I 90 THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. CAR WAS RETURNED TO NEW MOTORS AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT A PISTON HAD EXPLODED AND PENETRATED THE ENGINE BLOCK. AFTER RESEARCHING I LEARNED THAT THERE INHERENT PROBLEMS WITH THE N63 ENGINE WHICH THE CAR HAS AND BMW SKIRTED A RECALL FOR THE N63 PROBLEM BY THEIR VOLUNTARY N63 CUSTOMER CARE PACKAGE WHICH HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED BY NEW MOTORS. HOWEVER, THE N63 CCP WORK DID NOT FIX THE INHERENT OIL LEAKAGE/CONSUMPTION PROBLEMS. NEW MOTORS AND BMW NA ARE BOTH NEGLIGENT FOR NOT EFFECTIVELY ADDRESSING/CORRECTING THE KNOWN DEFECT AND PUT MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS IN HARMS WAY BY PUTTING THE 2012 BMW 750 IX ON THE ROAD WITH THE PISTON THAT EVENTUALLY EXPLODED AND SHOT THROUGH THE ENGINE BLOCK. AND, SINCE BMW'S N63 CCP HAS NOT EFFECTIVELY ADDRESSED THE INHERENT PROBLEM AND FOR PUBLIC SAFETY, A RECALL IS IN ORDER TO FORCE BMW TO CURE THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS SEVERELY INJURED OR KILLED AS A RESULT OF THE KNOWN ENGINE DEFECT.
