Brand new car bought in Nov 2023. On February 12, 2024, this Recall Campaign No. 24V-104: Integrated Brake (IB) Module came out - albeit with no remedy. It is now Jun 22nd - 4 months later - and there is still no remedy. I am adversely affected in the following ways: - I have been unable to drive the defective vehicle for over 4 months now - I have been unable to purchase the vehicle out of the lease as they won't provide a payoff-quote with an open recall - I am unable to re-sell the vehicle with the open recall. 4 months is an unacceptable time to remedy (and it may be a lot longer, or never) - as by the time the recall came out, I had only owned the car for less than 3 months. As of today, I was unable to use the car for a longer time than I have been able to use it since leasing it brand new. Over the past 4 months, every time I attempted to have the recall addressed at a BMW dealership, I was repeatedly told there was no remedy available.

I purchased a new BMW i7 xDrive60 at the end of December 2023. There have been numerous software issues since I purchased the vehicle. Yesterday while driving at low speed, a car in front of me at a stop light slammed on brakes. I attempted to depress the brake but it was too late. My car collided with the vehicle in front. I did not initially see the driver ahead of me stop as I was looking to the side for oncoming traffic. All of the ADAS systems are activated in my vehicle and set to the most sensitive settings including the autonomous emergency braking/FCW which is set to “Early” response. My vehicle provided no warning of the impending collision nor did it attempt to brake on its own. There is an issue with the AEB functionality in the i7 that needs to be investigated. In addition to this issue, there’s also a problem with the automatic brake hold function when the car stops. Due to poor programming, after bringing the car to a stop by using regenerative braking the car then rolls backward or forward (depending on the slope) before the auto hold function applies the brakes. This is unlike any other car with this function including other BMWs we have owned. It increases the likelihood of a collision as the car rolls after coming to a complete stop. I have driven another electric BMW and experienced this issue. It is also mentioned all over various BMW owner forums. My vehicle cost $137,000 and did not even alert of a forward collision or attempt to brake on its own as it is supposed to. Furthermore the car is also supposed to detect and record video of any accidents that occur but the car did not detect it was in an accident. BMW/NHTSA needs to investigate the i7 and other EVs BMW produces. There is no logical reason the car did not alert about an impending collision or attempt to brake on its own. I also learned my vehicle is subject to a recall related to the integrated brake booster. I’m unsure if this could have played a roll in the car not stopping.

On 2023 BMW i7 while I was trying to park in a parking stall moving forwards at a very low speed in a shopping center( less than a 1 m/h) . The car suddenly and very aggressively took off and accelerate on me while I was straightening the steering wheel to pull more forwards, heading another parked car in front it, head to head and pushed/ slid the parked car about 20 feet. I have no idea if any button was pushed or activated with my palm while steering to park. No signs or indicator or sensor warned before accident and nothing after accident.
