2007 BMW 328i complaints

PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM MALFUNCTION - WARNING ERROR IS ON AFTER MULTIPLES BATTERIES HAVE BEEN REPLACED. AIRBAG IS NO LONGER WORKING SINCE THIS WARNING IS ON. THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS MALFUNCTION WARMING ARE ON BUT STILL WORKING/ON. THE RIGHT REAR NIGHT LIGHT IS NOT WORKING BUT NO WARNING ERROR MESSAGE. WE CHANGED THE BULB BUT STILL NOT WORKING... PLEASE HELP!!! *TR

AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH REMAIN LIT AT ALL TIMES. ADDITIONALLY, THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG DISABLED" INDICATOR REMAINS LIT AT ALL TIMES. THERE IS A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR MAT ISSUE WHICH CAUSED THESE PROBLEMS, YET APPARENTLY NOT FOR MY VIN. THE DISABLED PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, AND CLEARLY MY VIN SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL. *TR

HI, I THINK, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT BMW HAS TO FIX. MY AUTOMATIC CAR LOCK GETS STUCK AND I CAN ONLY OPEN DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR DOESN'T OPEN. THE MANUAL LEVER THAT IS SUPPOSED TO OPEN THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND BACK DOOR DOESN'T OPEN THE DOOR. MY WIFE AND KIDS WERE STUCK AND SOME HOW MANUALLY THEY CRAWLED OUT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. IT WAS VERY STRESSFUL AND I WAS WONDERING IF MY SON WAS 20YRS OLD, HOW CAN HE COME THROUGH THE DRIVER'S SIDE FROM THE BACK SEAT. BMW IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND HAS NOT RECALLED THE CARS TO FIX THE MANUAL OVERRIDE WHEN THE AUTOMATIC DOOR OPENER DOESN'T WORK. *TR

PERSON KNEELED ON PASSENGER SEAT AND THE SEAT RESTRAINT WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THIS PART IS BEING REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY FOR SOME 2007 BMW'S BUT NOT MY VIN. *TR

PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR FAILED (CODE 93C3), DISABLING POTENTIAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. APPARENTLY THIS PARTICULAR VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE. PLEASE EXPAND THIS RECALL. BMW HAS REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM UNDER THE RECALL, SO WE PAID NEARLY $1,200 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY OC3 MAT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MAT SENSOR SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000 (AIR BAGS). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000....UPDATED 09-05-14 *BF UPDATED 12/18/2014 *JS

FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. NOT PART OF THE RECALL? NOT THE SPECIFIC TO THE VIN? BMW DEALER SAID IT THE SEAT PAN CUSHIN? DIFFERENT PART? IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY BMW 328I 2007 AND HAD PASSENGERS IN THE CAR. APPARENTLY ONE OF THE DOOR LOCK FUSES BLEW. I AM UNABLE TO UNLOCK ANY OF THE PASSENGER DOORS WITH THE KEY FOB NOR FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. I AM ABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR MANUALLY BUT THAT IS IT. IN OTHER WORDS, THE PASSENGERS IN MY CAR COULD NOT MANUALLY OPEN THEIR DOORS AT ALL. THEY HAD TO CRAWL THROUGH THE DRIVER SIDE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE! THANK GOD I WASN'T IN AN ACCIDENT, THERE WASN'T A FIRE. I'M NOW BEING TOLD THAT BMW HAS TO "RUN A FULL DIAGNOSTIC" BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO OPEN ANY PASSENGER DOORS OF THE VEHICLE FOR ENTRANCE OR EXIT UNLESS I POTENTIALLY SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUE. SERIOUSLY? DOES THIS SEEM SAFE TO THE AVERAGE PERSON? *TR

BATTERY SPARKS THIRD. TIME REPLACING, SOMETHING CLICKS IN THE FUSE BOX NOW THE CAR WON'T. START. *TR

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE MODEL (2007 BMW 328I) FOR CRACKS DEVELOPING IN THE "FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT DETECTION MAT". THIS CAUSES THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO BE DEACTIVATED DURING A CRASH (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000). I CALLED BMW AND THEY SAY THAT MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED WHEN MY EXACT MODEL IS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND THE ISSUE WITH MY CAR IS EXACTLY THE SAME. I FEEL THIS IS VERY UNFAIR. PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE. I FEAR THE WORST BECAUSE NOW I AM MARRIED AND I HAVE A PASSENGER MORE OFTEN THAN BEFORE. I REALLY CANNOT AFFORD $1000 RIGHT NOW TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY BMW. *TR

WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SO WE TOOK THE CARE TO A TECHNICIAN WHO FOUND THE FOLLOWING FAULT CODE: "-93C3 SEAT OCCUPANCY DETECTOR, PASSENGER, CURRENTLY PRESENT, 95X0". THIS FAILURE SEEMS TO BE EXTREMELY COMMON WITH THIS VEHICLE. WHEN I CONTACTED BMW CUSTOMER RELATIONS, THEY STATED: "THANK YOU FOR CONTACTING BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC REGARDING OUR AMENDED VOLUNTARY RECALL ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR MAT FOR CERTAIN 2006-2007 MODELS DEPENDING UPON SEAT TYPE. INCLUDED 3 SERIES ARE 2006-2007 3 SERIES SEDANS WITH SPORTS SEATS THAT WERE PRODUCED BETWEEN DECEMBER 2005 ' SEPTEMBER 2006. RECALLS ARE SPECIFIC TO A VEHICLE'S IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) BASED ON THE ABOVE CRITERIA, AND <MY VIN> DOES NOT HAVE THIS RECALL. I SUGGEST CONTINUING TO WORK WITH THE SERVICE TEAM AT YOUR AUTHORIZED BMW CENTER TO REVIEW ANY CONCERNS YOU MAY HAVE WITH YOUR VEHICLE." CAN YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AND CONSIDER MORE VEHICLES FOR THIS RECALL? ALSO, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE ANY RECOURSE FOR REIMBURSEMENT IF I GO AHEAD AND HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT MY OWN COST. THANK YOU! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR MAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 75,338. UPDATED 8/27/14*CN UPDATED 8/29/2014 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328 I. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO DIFFERENT INDEPENDENT MECHANICS WHO WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE THIRD TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE ECCENTRIC SHAFT SENSOR WHICH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 13V044000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), HOWEVER, HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

BMW RECALL DATED 11/12/2013, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V564000. RECALL UP TO 76,565 UNITS FOR FAILURES OF FRONT SEAT OCCUPANT PROTECTION MAT. AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. CONTACTED BMW AND TOLD MY VIN DOES NOT FALL INTO BMW RANGE BUT I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE EXACT FAILURE SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE USED IN 10/2013. BMW HAS LIKELY NOT IDENTIFIED THE TRUE VIN RANGE OF VEHICLES IMPACTED BY DEFECTIVE OCCUPANCY MATS AND REFUSES TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT. *TR

EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I HADN'T NOTICED ANY CHANGES EXCEPT THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD SHUT OFF BY ITSELF. THEN I NEEDED A JUMP AND IT TOOK RIGHT AWAY. THE NEXT TIME I NEEDED A JUMP IT WOULDN'T TAKE. TOOK THE BATTERY TO AUTOZONE AND HAD IT CHECKED AND IT WAS FINE. SO REALIZED IT WASN'T THE BATTERY. ID TRY TO START THE CAR BUT NOTHING HAPPENS NOT EVEN A CLICKING NOISE NOTHING. BUT THE LIGHTS STILL CAME ON WINDOWS STILL ROLLED DOWN RADIO EVEN WORKED IT JUST WOULDN'T START. *TR

2007 BMW 328I. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE SUN ROOF SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING. *SMD

DRIVER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK OR OPEN. ACCORDING TO DOZENS OF FORUM POSTS, IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE. VERY DANGEROUS IF THIS FAILS IN AN ACCIDENT AND CAN'T GET OUT OF THE CAR. ONLY WAY TO GET IN AND OUT IS THROUGH WINDOW OR PASSENGER DOOR. IT IS POSSIBLE FOR ALL LOCKS TO FAIL AND ONLY WAY TO GET OUT WOULD BE FROM THE WINDOWS. EVEN DOOR HANDLE CAN'T OPEN DOOR. *TR

THE ENGINE STALLED AT A LOW SPEED COMING TO A STOP. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER THE PAST WEEK. *TR

THE AIRBAG SENSOR ON MY 2007 BMW 328I IS MALFUNCTIONING. IT MATCHES THE EXACT DESCRIPTION AS THE RECALL AND OTHER FILED COMPLAINTS. HOWEVER, BMW INSISTS THAT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. *TR

WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND AT THE STOP LIGHT, WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO GO AND THE AIR BAGS CAME ON AND THE SOUND DING, DING, DING, AND THE AIR BAGS LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH? WHEN I TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL SHOP AND LET THEM RUN OB2 SCANNER AND IT CAME UP ON THE OB2 SCANNER IT WAS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS MAT SENSOR. *JS

RED WARNING LIGHT STEERING PROBLEM STOP CAR IMMEDIATELY. BMW AND INTERNET STATES THIS WAS COMMON PROBLEM $1800+ TO FIX I HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT IT STILL COST ME APPROX $600. *TR

I UNLOCKED THE CAR AND SAT IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT. MY WIFE SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I INSERTED THE KEYFOB AND PUSHED THE 'START' BUTTON. THE CAR TURNED ON AND ABOUT 5 SECONDS LATER WE HEARD A 'GONG' SOUND. WE LOOKED AT THE SCREEN AND IT WAS SHOWING A RED WARNING ABOUT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG BEING DISABLED. I POWERED OFF THE CAR, WAITED A MINUTE AND POWERED IT BACK ON. SAME ERROR CAME UP. SO I POWERED OFF THE CAR A SECOND TIME, ASKED THE WIFE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR AND THEN BACK ONTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THEN I POWERED ON THE CAR. THE ERROR WENT AWAY. WE DROVE 15 MINUTES TO DINNER, ATE AND RETURNED HOME WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. THAT NIGHT I SETUP AN APPOINTMENT WITH GLOBAL IMPORTS BMW FOR 9/12/2012 TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. THE DEALER RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND REPORTED THE FOLLOWING IN REGARDS TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT ISSUE: "87844 PERFORMED SHORT TEST AND FOUND FAULT MRS-93C3. PERFORMED TEST MODULE AND FOUND THE PASSENGER SEAT MAT TO BE DEFECTIVE. CUSTOMER DECLINED THE SEAT MAT REPLACEMENT." NEXT TO THIS I HAD THE SERVICE MANAGER WRITE IN THE TOTAL REPAIR COST, $1,345.70. I STILL HAVE A COPY OF THE PAPERWORK WITH THE DETAILS IF NEEDED. I DECLINED THE REPAIR AT THE TIME BECAUSE I FELT THE FACT THEY FOUND "...THE SEAT MAT TO BE DEFECTIVE" INDICATED A KNOWN ISSUE. FAST FORWARD TO TODAY 4/11/2014, NHTSA LISTS A "RECALL SUBJECT : FRONT SEAT OCCUPANT PROTECTION MAT" CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V564000. I CALLED BMW USA'S CUSTOMER RELATIONS NUMBER AND THEY TOLD ME MY CAR HAD NO REC

PASSENGER AIRBAG SEAT PAD DOES NOT DETECT. STEERING WHEEL LOCK FAULT BOTH THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER VEHICLES OF SAME MODELS SAME YEAR BUT NOT MINE. BOTH PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED ON MY VEHICLE AND I REFUSE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED WHEN OTHERS GET THERE COVERED WITH A RECALL. *TR

THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY UNROLLS ALL WINDOWS AND THE MOONROOF WHENEVER IT RAINS. THIS IS FLOODING AND RUINING THE VEHICLE, AND CAUSING MOISTURE TO ENTER THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT FIRE HAZARD. THERE IS A BURNING SMELL FROM THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE ISSUE, WHICH IS WELL KNOWN ON THE BLOGOSPHERE, IS DUE TO A FAULTY AND IMPROPERLY INSTALLED WIRING HARNESS (INSTALLED CROOKED), AN ELECTRICAL SHORT IN PINS 18 AND 19 FOR THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR, AND IMPROPER MOISTURE SEALING FOR THE HARNESS AND ACTUATOR. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR ADDRESS THE ISSUE. *TR

LOCKED IN CAR DUE TO FAILED DOOR LOCKS. OPENED WINDOW TO ACCESS MANUAL DOOR KEY BUT PASSENGER CRAWLED OVER TO DRIVERS SIDE SINCE THIS WAS THE ONLY WAY OUT. *TR

OWNER OF 2007 BMW 328I, START MY CAR IN THE MORNING, BUT THE CAR WON'T START IT, IT NO SOUND WHEN I TRY TO START THE CAR. BUT THE WINDOW, LOCKS AND RADIO ARE ALL WORKING WELL. TRY TO JUMP THE BATTERY, IT NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BATTERY. NEED TOW MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, OVER ONE DAYS ALREADY, STILL WAITING THE REPLY FROM THE DEALER. *TR

AT 65 MPH ON FREEWAY, SUDDENLY LOST POWER. VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED TO ABOUT 10 MPH AS I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY. CARS BEHIND NEARLY RAN ME OVER. DROVE SLOWLY TO BMW SERVICE WHO DIAGNOSED "WATER PUMP SHORT TO GROUND" CAUSING VEH TO LOSE POWER. *TR

STEERING WHEEL LOCK SIGN KEEPS APPEARING AND LOCKING ME OUT OF THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS AND HAS LEFT ME STRANDED EVERY TIME AND 3 OF THE TIMES A TOW TRUCK WAS UNABLE TO REACH MY CAR TO TOW IT. I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALER FOR A WEEK NOW AND THE SIGN HAS NOT POPPED UP FOR THEM SO THEY SAY THEY CAN NOT DO ANYTHING. WHEN I DROPPED OFF THE CAR TO THEM AFTER BEING STUCK FOR 45 MIN, AS SOON AS I PARKED IT AT BMW THE SERVICE WOMAN TRIED TO GO INTO IT AND START IT AND IT SHOWED THE SIGN. THE SERVICE TEAM HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. SO I AM PICK UP THE CAR TODAY WITH NOTHING THAT HAS BEEN DONE TO IT AND IT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN AGAIN IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS SINCE IT WILL BE DRIVEN NORMALLY. *TR

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH OVER HEATING. EVERY TIME I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM THEY HAVE FOUND MULTIPLE LEAKS AND THE MANIFOLD CRACKED (NOT DIAGNOSED IN ONE VISIT THESE WERE FOUND AFTER MULTIPLE VISITS). IT STILL DOES IT AND NOW THEY CLAIM THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING. THEY WANT PROOF THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING SO I AM GOING TO FILM IT WHEN IT HAPPENS TO ME AGAIN. THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED ON 12/31/13, I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD TO GET TO A RESORT, THIS ROAD WAS NOT ELEVATED IN ANYWAY IT WAS LEVEL. IT HAPPENS EVERY MONTH OR SO. *TR

I WAS TRAPPED INSIDE MY VEHICLE WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR UNABLE TO UNLOCK. I COULD NOT USE THE MANUAL DOOR HANDLE ON THE INSIDE OR OUT. THE INTERIOR DOOR OPEN BUTTON LOCATED ON THE DASHBOARD WOULD NOT UNLOCK THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. THE KEY FOB WOULD NOT UNLOCK IT. I FINALLY HAD TO MANEUVER ACROSS THE CENTER CONSOLE AND SLIDE OUT THROUGH THE PASSENGER DOOR. I WAS SCARED AND FRUSTRATED. IT WAS DARK AND IN AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 328I WITH 48K MILES AND THE ELECTRONIC STEERING WHEEL LOCK ICON CAME UP ON THE DASH PANEL. IT KEPT GIVING THE WARNING THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK AND IF I TURN THE CAR OFF AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO START IT. I DROVE IT HOME AND WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF, I WAS ABLE TO CRANK IT BACK UP AND HAD NO PROBLEM WITH STEERING IN TEST DRIVE. DEALER TOLD ME THAT I NEED TO REPLACE THE COLUMN BECAUSE IT COULD ACTUALLY LOCK. THIS WOULD BE DISASTROUS ON A FREEWAY IN SOUTHERN CAL WHERE I LIVE. THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE BMW 328I MODELS BECAUSE I AM READING OTHER ONLINE POSTS STATING THE STEERING DID LOCK. I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT, HOPING THAT ANY SUBSEQUENT INVESTIGATION BY THE NHTSA WILL SEE THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AND BMW KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT YET THEY WON'T ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY AFTER THE CAR WAS PARKED, IT WAS DIFFICULT TO START AND HE BATTERY INDICATOR CAME ON A FEW TIMES. THE FINAL TIME AFTER DRIVING FROM CONNECTICUT TO QUEENS NY, I WAS IN A FRIENDS DRIVEWAY AFTER DROPPING THEM OFF FROM THE AIRPORT, THE CAR WOULD NOT START EVEN THOUGHT THE LIGHTS WERE WORKING. EVENTUALLY ALL POWER WAS LOST. I HAD TO HAVE CAR PUSHED OUT IF THE DRIVING AND ON TO THE STREET. ALSO TO NOTE EARLIER I WAS CHARGING MY CELL PHONE, BUT IT STOPPED CHARGING. I WENT AND PURCHASE A NEW CHARGED (USB ADAPTOR) WHICH DID NOT WORK EITHER, BUT WORKED WHEN I HOOKED IT UP TO THE COMPUTER. THE TOW TRUCK PERSON WAS NOT ABLE TO GET THE CAR STARTED WITH A JUMP, AND INDICATED THAT IT APPEARED TO BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I REVIEWED THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE SINCE MY CAR HAS SUCH LOW MILAGE, AND NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE YEAR AND MODEL FROM FEBRUARY 2013. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE SAME, BUT IT SOUNDS SIMILAR.

WHEN A PERSON IS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE SEAT BELT AND LARGE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS COME ON THE DASH AND STAY ON. ONCE THE PASSENGER EXITS THE CAR, THE LIGHTS GO OFF. I SEE THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE 2006 328I BUT NOT FOR THE 2007. I AM CONCERNED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. *TR

REAR ALLOY WHEEL IS CRACKED RESULTING IN LOSS OF PRESSURE. NO IMPACT OCCURRED TO CAUSE THIS CRACK. *TR

BRAKES GO OUT A LOT FRONT AND REAR ON BOTH MY BMWS , AND PASSENGERS REAR DOOR LOCKS STOP WORKING ON BOTH MY BMW'S 2006 325, AND 328I 2007. WINDOWS ON BOTH RIGHT REAR DOORS WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO. I'VE BEEN TELLING THE BMW DEALER ABOUT THESE THINGS AND ALL THEY SAY IS WHAT IT WILL COST ME TO FIX. I EVEN TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ON BOTH MY CARS AND THEY HAD ME PAY FOR IT, THEN LATER I FIND OUT IT IS A RECALL. BUT DIDN'T GET MONEY BACK FOR ME PAYING TO GET IT FIXED. SAME THING ABOUT THE BRAKES , BOTH MY BMWS BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE THEN 30 TIMES OR MORE APIECE. CAN SOMEONE HELP. *TR

ON AUGUST 31ST, I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN THE NUMBER 2 LANE AT 70 MPH WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OVERHEAT LIGHT CAME ON AND I EXPERIENCED AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER AND WAS FORCED TO NAVIGATE THE VEHICLE ACROSS SEVERAL BUSY LANES TO THE SHOULDER. I ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO COOL DOWN, ADDED SOME WATER AND I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE CLOSEST DEALER 5 MILES AWAY. UPON ENTERING THE FREEWAY AGAIN THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY EXPERIENCED THE SAME SYMPTOMS AND I WAS FORCED TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD ON SEPTEMBER 3RD, THE ELECTRIC WATER PUMP HAD FAILED. THE BMW DEALERSHIP QUOTED $1332.00 TO REPAIR. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE BMW'S RIGHT AFTER THE VEHICLE FALLS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY. THIS LOSS OF POWER IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING AND AT HIGH SPEED WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC. DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS LOSS OF POWER AND THE COMMON OCCURRENCE I WOULD RECOMMEND A RECALL OR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO BE ISSUED FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. *JB

THE DOOR ACTUATOR SYSTEM ON MY 2007 BMW 3281 HAS FAILED TWICE, ONCE LOCKING ME IN AND THE OTHER TIME IMMOBILIZING THE CAR AND STRANDING ME FOR SEVERAL HOURS.I NOTICED THE FIRST FAILURE WHEN I STOPPED FOR GAS & COULD NOT OPEN THE FUEL FLAP. I DROVE TO THE DEALER BUT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN, EITHER ELECTRONICALLY OR MANUALLY, AND THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT LOWER AND THE OTHER THREE DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN. FORTUNATELY, THE SUN ROOF WAS NOT ON THE DOOR CIRCUIT & I WAS ABLE TO TOSS OUT THE FOB KEY FOR SOMEONE TO OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR AND LET ME OUT. A MECHANIC REPLACED THE 15 AMP FUSE IN THE DOOR CIRCUIT WITH A 20 AMP FUSE AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. CONCLUSION: THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED AS I DROVE HOME AFTER A STATE INSPECTION. WHEN I PARKED AND HIT THE FOB LOCK BUTTON, I HEARD A MUFFLED NOISE. THE FUSE HAD BLOWN AGAIN. I UNLOCKED THE CAR WITH THE FOB KEY AND AFTER MUCH TIME AND GREAT EFFORT, I INSTALLED A ANOTHER 20 AMP FUSE. BECAUSE THE PASSENGER DOOR WON'T OPEN WHEN THE CIRCUIT BLOWS, REPLACING THE FUSE IS VERY DIFFICULT, NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE. IT REQUIRES AGILITY, KNOW-HOW, AND GOOD CONDITIONS--NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN COUNT ON IN THE GENERAL POPULATION. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION: GO BACK TO MECHANICAL LOCKING, ELECTRONIC LOCKING IS A BAD SOLUTION AT LEAST, YOU CAN GET OUT OF THE CAR. SECOND: REQUIRE BMW TO RECALL THE ORIGINAL ACTUATORS AND REPLACE THEM WITH NEW DESIGNS THAT, IF THEY TOO FAIL, THEY FAIL IN A DOOR-O

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT NO CAUSE FOR FAILURE WAS FOUND. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

I OWN A 2007 328I ,RECENTLY MY CAR HAS BEEN GIVING ME AN ERROR MESSAGE DUE TO THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR. WHENEVER, A PASSENGER SITS IN THE FRONT IT, A LIGHT TURNS ON LETTING ME KNOW THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF. THIS MEANS THAT IN CASE OF A SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AND THE PASSENGER'S LIFE WILL BE AT RISK. AFTER THE ERROR MESSAGE I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THE ISSUE IS VERY COMMON IN THE 3-SERIES. BMW ACTUALLY DID A VOLUNTARY RECALL BUT IT ONLY INVOLVED 2006 3-SERIES. HOWEVER, I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE THAT THE RECALL WAS ABOUT. I TOOK MY CAR TO BMW PACIFIC IN GLENDALE AND INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO HELP ME SINCE MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. HERE IS THE RECALL THAT BMW ANNOUNCED: "STATEMENT ON VOLUNTARY RECALL INVOLVING FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR MAT ON U.S.A. MODEL BMWS - AUGUST 13, 2008 TODAY, BMW ANNOUNCED A VOLUNTARY RECALL REGARDING THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR MAT INVOLVING APPROXIMATELY 200,000 MODEL YEAR 2004-06 VEHICLES. AFFECTED ARE CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006 3-SERIES, MODEL YEAR 2004-06 5-SERIES, AND MODEL YEAR 2004-06 X3 VEHICLES, DEPENDING UPON SEAT TYPE. BMW HAS FOUND THAT THE SENSOR MAT MAY BECOME DAMAGED DURING VEHICLE USAGE DEPENDING UPON THE MANNER AND FREQUENCY OF THE FRONT PASSENGER'S ENTRY AND EXIT. LINK: HTTP://WWW.BMWUSA.COM/STANDARD/CONTENT/CONTACTUS/VOLUNTARYRECALL.ASPX I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY BMW ONLY COVERED 06 MODELS WHEN 07 MODELS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. I FE

I WAS GOING ABOUT 50 TO 55 MPA WHEN MY TEMP LIGHT CAME ON, WITHIN A FEW SECONDS MY CAR LOST SPEED RAPIDLY AND COMPLETELY QUIT LOCKING EVERYTHING UP ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. I BOUGHT THE CAR AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED WITH 100,000 MILE WARRENTY.WHEN I CALLED CENTURY BMW DEALER IN HUNTSVILLE, AL WHERE I PURCHASED IT I WAS TOLD MY WARRANTY WENT OUT TWO MONTHS AGO ON 5/15 ACCORDING TO DATE OF SHIPMENT, A FEW DAY'S BEFORE I HAD RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT MY FACTORY WARNING MAY BE EXPIRING BASED ON TIME AND MILES IT STATED THAT AVAILABLE COVERAGE EXPIRES ON 8/23/2013 WHICH WAS 21 DAY'S AFTER DATE OF FAILURE. I WAS TOLD THAT WAS TIME I HAD TO BUY ANOTHER EXTENDED WARRANTY, THAT IS NOT WHAT THE STATEMENT SAID.WHEN TOWED TO SHOP IT WAS THE WATER PUMP AND THERMOSTAT AT A COST OF $1,212.11 PLUS TOWING CHARGE THAT I DO NOT HAVE A BILL ON YET WHICH SHOULD HAVE ALSO BEEN COVERED. I AM JUST LUCKY THAT NO ONE BEHIND ME SLAMMED INTO THE REAREND OF CAR OF LUCKILY NOT TURNING IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC SINCE THERE WAS NO WARNING EXCEPT SECONDS BEFORE IT STOPPED COLD. I HAD TOOK THE CAR IN BEFORE BECAUSE I SMELLED ANTI-FREEZE AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO PROBLEM, AND HAVE AT TIMES SINCE THEN SMELLED ANTI-FREEZE BUT SINCE I HAD IT CHECKED OUT JUST THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING ABOUT THAT MODEL. I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL, SO WHY WAS THEIR NO RECALL STATING THE DANGER OF THIS HAPPENING. AND WHY ARE THEY NOT HONORING THEIR WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 BMW 328I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER BUT THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF THREE YEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS REPEATEDLY TAKEN TO DEALERS FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND DURING THAT TIME, THE BATTERY, FUEL PUMP, AIR FLOW SENSOR, TWO CAM SENSORS, CRANK SENSOR, ECU AND HARNESSES WERE ALL REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

CAR HAS HORRIBLE LIFTER TICKING NOISE. STARTED AROUND 58K MILES, NOW UP TO 61K. BMW KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HAVE EVEN WENT AS FAR AS ISSUING A NEW (REVISION IN 2009) SERVICE BULLETIN AND REDESIGNING THE HEAD AND LIFTERS. THEY DON'T WANT TO ISSUE A RECALL NOTICE FOR THEIR OWN DESIGN FLAW BECAUSE OF THE COST ASSOCIATED WITH REPLACING THESE PARTS. I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3K MILES AND HAVE BEEN NOTICING FERROUS METAL FLAKES IN THE FILTER CAUSED BY THE LIFTERS BEING STARVED OF OIL DUE TO THE OIL PORTS IN THE HEAD BEING TOO SMALL TO ALLOW ADEQUATE OIL FLOW TO THEM. ONE WOULD EXPECT A BMW TO LAST A LITTLE BIT LONGER THAN 60K MILES BEFORE ANY ISSUES LIKE THIS ARISE. *TR

I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE SHOP FOR A BATTERY CHANGE AND UPON PICKING UP THE CAR THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT WENT ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS CON-INCIDENTAL THAT IT HAPPENED ON THAT DAY AND WOULD COST OVER $1000 TO FIX. I GOT A SECOND OPINION AND WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT THE MAT SENSOR IS BROKE AND MAY DEPLOY IN ACCIDENT WHETHER OR NOT SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND SAW THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED BY YOU FOR MODELS 2006 AND EARLIER FOR THE SAME ISSUE. AFTER SPEAKING WITH BMW CORPORATE, I WAS TOLD TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT WITH YOU THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNLESS THE NHTSA ISSUES A RECALL. *TR

STEERING WHEEL LOCK DISPLAYED ON CAR DASH BOARD. IT WILL NOT START AND CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE ONLINE. BMW NEEDS TO PAY FOR THIS ISSUE I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER BMW THE REST OF MY LIFE. PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS. *TR

STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WILE DRIVING - VERY SIMILAR TO NHTSA CASE # 10194169. MY DAUGHTER WAS TURNING RIGHT INTO A PARKING LOT WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL CAME TO A HARD STOP. WHEN SHE REALIZED THAT SHE WOULD NOT MAKE THE TURN, SHE TRIED TO TURN IT BACK TO THE LEFT BUT IT IMMEDIATELY LOCKED HARD IN PLACE. SHE PULLED FORWARD IN THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL AND WAS ABLE TO STOP IN THE GRASS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SHE STOPPED SHE NOTICED THAT THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING MESSAGE WAS ILLUMINATED. SHE THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WORKED NORMALLY AND SHE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR ABOUT A MILE TO THE HOUSE. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE LOCAL BMW DEALER - THE DEALER KEPT THE CAR FOR 3 DAYS WHERE THEY REVIEWED FAULT CODES (FOUND NONE), TRIED TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM (COULD NOT DUPLICATE), AND TOOK THE STEERING COLUMN APART (BUT FOUND NO PROBLEM). THE DEALER DID IMPLEMENT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V044000, BUT SAID THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. NEEDLESS TO SAY I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY DAUGHTER DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, BUT HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE AT THE TIME. CAN THE NHTSA PROVIDE ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE WITH THIS SITUATION. *TR

I'M A RETIRED U.S. NAVAL OFFICER WHO CURRENTLY WORKS IN FORT DETRICK, MARYLAND. I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AT ABOUT 45 MPH ON A BUSY RUSH HOUR FREEWAY IN I-270 NORTH. IMMEDIATELY I TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND MADE EVERY EFFORT TO MAKE IT TO THE LEFT SHOULDER WITH A STALLED (DEAD) ENGINE. THE CAR BEHIND ME IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THE PROBLEM AND SLOWED DOWN, AS WELL AS THE OTHER CARS BEHIND HIM. MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP WITH HALF OF THE BODY STILL IN THE FREEWAY. I WAS SHAKING DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS, BUT WHEN I SHIFTED THE GEAR TO "PARK" AND PUSHED THE "START" BUTTON, IMMEDIATELY THE CAR STARTED WITH NO PROBLEM AT ALL. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION ABOUT FOUR MONTHS AGO, MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON A ONE-LANE ROAD AT ABOUT 30 MPH. WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE STALLED AGAIN AND THERE WASN'T ANY SHOULDER HE CAN SAFELY TURN TO BECAUSE OF A CONCRETE PAVEMENT. THE CARS BEHIND STOPPED TO HELP HIM MOVE TO THE SIDE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, BUT WHEN HE SHIFTED TO "PARK" AND PUSHED "START", THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED WITHOUT ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO THE RECENT RECALL YOU HAVE IDENTIFIED FOR BMW 3-SERIES 2007 COUPE. BMW WILL NOT FIX MY PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH IT IS VERY IDENTICAL TO THE NHTSA'S IDENTIFIED RECALL, DUE TO THE REASON THAT MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED ON NOVEMBER 6, 2006 AND DID NOT MEET THE RECALL REQUIREMENT OF MARCH 2007 THROUGH JULY 2011. THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR THE EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I AM ASKING

THE VEHICLE ENGINE SHUT-OFFS IN MOTION. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE, THE VEHICLE WAS GOING 15MPH & THE ENGINE FAILED WHILE TURNING INTO A BLOCK (RESIDENTIAL AREA), AFTER IDLING ROUGH AND HIGH PITCH NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE 2ND OCCURRENCE, THE ENGINE FAILED AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY. THAT TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED ON A HILL WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE 3RD TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED. ONCE THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WAS PLACE IN PARK MODE & RE-STARTED. THE ENGINE STARTED AGAIN & THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME. NOTE: SINCE JANUARY 2012, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE BMW SERVICE DEPARTMENT SEVERAL TIMES FOR IDLING ROUGH AND HIGH PITCH NOISE FROM ENGINE COMPLAINTS. THE ISSUE NOW HAS PROGRESS TO ENGINE FAILURE IN MOTION. *TR

I PURCHASED MY BMW IN GERMANY!!! THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2006 (I DRIVE A 2007) MODELS OF THIS VEHICLE FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR MAT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN THIS MAT BECOMES DEFECTIVE, IT DISABLES AIRBAG SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLES. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM SINCE 2008 (WHEN THE RECALL WAS ISSUED), HOWEVER THESE CARS WERE PRODUCED FROM 2006-2008+ BEFORE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. THE RECALL ONLY COVERS 2006 MODELS WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. IF THE SAME EXACT VEHICLE CONTINUES TO BE PRODUCED WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT YOU ONLY COVER ONE YEAR OF IT BEING PRODUCED WHEN THERE WERE THREE, WHAT GOOD IS THAT? WHY IS IT THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND IN A CAR THAT HAS A KNOWN DEFECTIVE AIRBAG SYSTEM BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE DETECTION MAT AND BET ON MY LUCK THAT I DON'T GET IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND BE CAUGHT WITH NO AIR BAGS FOR SAFETY. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM... *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE OCCUPANCY SENSOR IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND I BELIEVE THAT THE WARRANTY EXTENSION HAS NOT COVERED ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES. MY BMW 2007 328 CONVERTIBLE HAS THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM AS IDENTIFIED BELOW. I HAVE REPAIRED IT AND IT HAS CONTINUED TO MALFUNCTION NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE, WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE STOPPED, CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE IN THE PASSENGER SIDE SHOULD THERE BE AN ACCIDENT. I BELIEVE THIS FAULTY PART MUST HAVE BEEN USED IN MY 2007 328 CONVERTIBLE. AUGUST 2008 -- BMW IS RECALLING 200,000 MY 2006 3 SERIES (SPORT SEAT), MY 2004-2006 5 SERIES (STANDARD AND SPORT SEAT), AND MY 2004-2006 X3 PASSENGER VEHICLES. A FATIGUE FAILURE OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT DETECTION MAT CAN OCCUR. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAGS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE HEAD PROTECTION SYSTEM, WILL BE DEACTIVATED AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP AS WELL AS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG "ON-OFF" LAMP WILL BE ILLUMINATED. IN THIS SITUATION THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY EVEN IF A SUFFICIENTLY SEVERE ACCIDENT WOULD OCCUR AND OCCUPANT PROTECTION PROVIDED BY THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE. BMW WILL ALSO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON THESE VEHICLES TO 10 YEARS FROM FIRST REGISTRATION WITHOUT ANY MILEAGE LIMIT. OWNERS MAY CONTACT BMW AT 1-800-525-7417. BMW IS EXTENDING THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS FROM FIRST REGISTRATION WITHOUT ANY MILEAGE LIMIT TO THE FOLLOWING VEHICLES: MY 2006 6-SERIES, 3-SERIES (STANDARD SEAT), MY 2004-2005 Z4, MY 2004-2006 7-SERIES, MY 2006 X5, AND MY 2
