Vehicle didn’t move after coming to a full stop at a traffic light. And it displayed a message stating the starter has overheated and that it needed to cool down. The timer for the cooldown period kept on increasing up to 180 seconds and consequent attempts to start the vehicle after the cooldown period didn’t help.

The starter motor overheats when the vehicle tries to start. The car does not always start. You can smell the starter burning. I have had the BMW dealership confirm that the starter is overheating and needs to be replaced. 2 independent mechanics witnessed this happen to my vehicle and confirmed as well. Other 2019 BMW X5 vehicles have been recalled for this exact issue and the fire hazard this causes. But not all X5’sfall under the recall - even though when reading through forums many many 2019 X5 owners have vehicles that are not named in the recall but are having this same exact problem. This is a family vehicle and is proving a fire hazard for my family, including my [XXX] son. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I have a 2019 BMW x5. My starter failed and I got a notification at the same time through my BMW app that there was a safety recall "RE: Recall 24V-576: Engine Starter – B12 05 24". The recall instructs the dealer that the Correction is "DME software update that will prevent the engine starter from being overloaded". This is all fine. It then gives the instruction "Note: Some vehicles may also be affected by the following technical campaign: 0012240600 Check and, if necessary, replace starter motor Please ensure that, if possible, both technical actions are processed at the same time." My issue is that the initial Recall is the clear issue causing the starter failure and they have acknowledged this in the technical campaign following. However, my vehicle's VIN is not included in the technical campaign that instructs them to replace the starter even though it was their negligence which caused the failure which they have acknowledged. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? No I paid to have the starter replaced. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Me and my vehicle were left stranded, sometimes In the road due to auto start, multiple times. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, by the dealer. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, inspected by the dealer. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No there were no warnings.

I received an Important Safety Recall notice indicating that a manufacturing defect could cause my vehicle to catch fire. I brought the car to New Country BMW in Hartford, CT to have this corrected and was advised that I would be charged $2,200 to replace the "TCB" in order to address the safety recall. This does not seem right to charge me to correct a safety defect mandated by NHTSA. The vehicle is owned by and registered to Slade & Company, LLC. Please advise.

Our 2019 BMW X5 triggered a warning light requiring us to pull over immediately and tow the vehicle to the nearest dealer. It currently has 35,000 miles and the dealer informed us that the oil pump failed. After research and discussion with the dealer this has occurred with multiple 2019 X5's at that particular dealer as well as others. BMW has not issued a recall or extended warranty for the oil pump that is included in the B58 Engine. That particular oil pump has casing that is made of plastic that is known to fail. In the 2020 model they then replaced that casing with metal. It is clear BMW knows of this issue and is not taking action to ensure the consumer's safety and investment is addressed.
