2015 BMW X1

On Sunday, [XXX] while driving the 2015 BMW X1 on [XXX] , the car overheated. The vehicle was brought to the side of the road, stopped turned off and towed to BMW of Warwick, Rhode Island. On Monday, August 4, 2025, at my home residence I received a recall notice from BWM indicating that there was a recall for the water pump control module and/or water pump. Water could get to the area and cause a short or fault into a fire. It was determined that the vehicle's water pump failed by the dealership and that the module was not the cause. This is way too coincidental. The dealership and/or BMW refused to replace the pump under warranty and only installed a shield over the unit. It is my contention that the module was exposed to moisture for over 10 years such that the electrical pump suffered premature wear and tear. The parts match the recall description. I am seeking reimbursement of $955.44 for the cost of replacement. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

What happened: Before the engine began smoking, I experienced several electrical and functional issues. The cigarette lighter socket and USB ports stopped working completely. At one point, the windshield washer fluid system also stopped working and later started functioning again without repair. Additionally, on multiple occasions while at a complete stop with my foot on the brake, the vehicle unexpectedly shifted into park on its own. This happened about 2–3 times and made it unsafe to accelerate when traffic resumed. Eventually, the engine began emitting smoke during normal use. There were no warning lights or error messages beforehand. This issue appears connected to the current coolant pump recall, but the manufacturer has stated that no remedy is available. Out of concern for my safety and potential risk to others, I have stopped driving the vehicle. Because the issue remains unresolved, the car has become undrivable and is now affecting my ability to work and manage basic transportation needs.
