While coming to red lights or exiting the freeway I notice the brakes not braking while I press on the pedal. I have to push the pedal with extreme force to get it to stop. I was luckily able to stop it in time. My x7 braking systems reaction timing is not consistent, I feel like I am putting my family at risk if my wife is driving, or if someone else is driving and they cant hit the brakes with the extra force that the car requires sometimes. I have driven many car and have never had a car with inconsistent braking effort needed to stop.

On June 29th, 2023 at approximately 8:45 AM we were pulling into a parking space slowly tapping the brakes to slow and stop the vehicle. About 2/3 of the way into the parking stall around 3 or 4 feet from the curb, the vehicle actually accelerated while pressing the brake jumping the curb. We pressed on the brakes again and the car accelerated even faster crossing the sidewalk crashing into a building. We believe the brakes caused the SUA (Sudden Unintended Acceleration) accelerating the vehicle twice and the vehicle failed to apply the brakes. We believe this would've been caused by a computer error on the vehicle. We also believe the vehicle to initiate the two safety systems failed, Crash Imminent Braking & Dynamic Brake Support thus being able to avoid the accident. To the best of our knowledge, no warnings or alerts were displayed on the vehicle before the crash. We had BMW inspect the vehicle and no defective part was found and the black box indicated the vehicle was accelerating a few seconds before the crash. We do not disagree with this and informed BMW that the car was accelerating on it's own.

Our vehicle dies while driving down the highway, twice now in less than 30 days. I drivetrain and low-power warning came on, but the car died and wouldn't start. The obvious risk is that we were driving on the highway and barely avoided being in an accident as I tried to steer us off the road. The second time we were at a park. In both instnances, the temperature was over 100 degrees and my 3 and 5 year old both got sick from overheating. We were stranded in the middle of nowhere. The dealership said "it probably just overheated, we couldn't find anything" but assure us it won't happen again. It did less than 30 days later.

Driving south on I-65 during heavy rainfall with windshield wipers on “auto.” Windshield wipers failed and became stuck in vertical position (picture attached). Immediately could not see the road, and had to navigate in heavy rain from far left lane to emergency lane. Could have caused a major fatality given the lack of visibility with no windshield wipers during heavy rain. Windshield wipers remain stuck, and will not go back to resting horizontal position. Wiper motor will click like it wants to engage, but no result, so does not appear to be relay/fuse issue. No warning lights or any indication of a possible failure. Service apt setup to have issue looked at.

I have owned this vehicle for under 6 months. The brakes stopped working and have had to have car towed into shop now twice due to the car not being able to be started due to error codes. When the brake issues occured you would press them and it would barely stop and create a very unsafe situation.

The Soft Close feature of the car continues to close even if there is a hand or finger in its way, I crushed by thumb while getting out of the car. I am concerned about the safety of the feature especially if there are young kids in the car, the injury could have been much more serious.
