I received recall notice 23V-707 in December 2023. In January of 2024, less than a month after receiving the notice for recall 23V-707, the SES light came on. The recall letter states that if this happens do not continue to drive your vehicle. You should immediately bring the vehicle in for recall repairs. I contacted my local BMW dealership and was told to bring the vehicle in, but there was nothing they can do at that time and there is nothing they can do at this time. I have contacted BMW's consumer relations department and have been given the same information. There has been no subsequent information or update by BMW. It is now June 2024; I feel this recall has not been handled in a timely matter. Had I brought my vehicle into my local BMW dealer 6 months ago, where would they have stored it, they do not have the space to keep my vehicle protected from the elements and they could not or would not answer that question. My vehicle that is not to be driven per the recall 23V-707 letter sits safely in my garage. The appearance is that BMW has no sense of urgency to make repairs to these older vehicles.
My car falls under Safety Recall 23V-707 VANOS. This RECALL came out around October 2023...today we are in June 2024 and BMW has not taken care of this problem yet. Eight months have passed and they still say "no remedy available". Are they taking responsibility if someone has a catastrophic accident while driving these recalled vehicles? Will they pay hospital/funeral expenses if someone gets hurt or die? I am scared of driving my car and had to find alternate transportation thanks to BMW and their ineptitude to take care of this problem in a timely manner.... BTW...they are not covering the expense of the alternate transportation costs.... When will the NHTSA take action to get this fixed? Eight months of waiting are too much already. Thanks.
The engine started stalling and rough riding. Now it will not start. The issue is with one of the recalls that there is no remedy for. I have a car that I cannot drive and that I am still paying for.

My VANOS bolts became loose and are missing. This caused my car to no longer turn on. The service engine soon light turned on right before this happened. It has been months since I have heard anything and it does not seem like BMW is doing anything to fix this problem. The remedy should be to replace the VANOS bolts free of charge, but nothing has been done.

I was fearful of having a wreck or being run over by the other cars since my car was not responding to giving it gas to accelerate on the road. I have contacted BMW on 1/2/2024, 4/15/2024, and gain today 5/21/2024 and they are telling me the remedy is still not available. I had Groves Automotive, a certified BMW repair shop, who are my automotive repair shop call for the repair too. My car was just serviced at Groves in the last 3 weeks and passed inspection. The Check Engine warning lamp came on again this morning while driving to work and again the vehicle was not able to accelerate and was running very rough. I am fearful of my safety and the safety of others when I have to drive back and forth to work.

The engine has been making some rattle noises like the sound of loose bolts for months now. I have contacted various BMW dealerships in orange county and san diego, and all of them say the same thing: A remedy is not available yet so we cannot help you. Finally today, my "Service Engine Soon" light went on. I did some research and failure of the VANOS bolts can lead to the car stalling at speed, risking a crash! This recall has been open for half a year now, and it seems the remedy is simply to replace those aluminum bolts! PLEASE help me get this through so that I don't end up in an accident or on the side of the road. This is for Recall Campaign No. 23V-707. The recall even states "if there is unusual engine noise, which may include illumination of the check engine or service engine soon warning lamp, do not continue to drive your vehicle and immediately contact the nearest authorized BMW center to arrange for pickup and transportation of your vehicle to the BMW center."

Check Engine light is illuminated. VANOS exhaust warning codes are stored. Other vehicles with the same N52 engine are subject to recall 23V707. BMW indicates that this vehicle is not included but could be in the future. In the interim, we are faced with a $3500 - $4500 out-of-pocket expense (which will probably never be reimbursed) or the possibility of the events described in the recall, which include a crash. For the safety of drivers of other vehicles in this same series with this same engine, it is imperative that the recall be extended to all potentially affected automobiles. Thank you for your assistance. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Hi. I am filing a report regarding the recall shown below. After several calls to BMW they still have no fix or parts, or an estimate of when they will have anything to adress this recall notice. It's coming up on 6 months since the recall was issued. My Vanos bolts on the exhaust camshaft have failed and my car no longer can drive. Oct 20,2023 Manufacturer Recall Number NA NHTSA Recall Number 23V707 Recall Status Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available Summary VANOUS BOLTS: The VANOS assembly (engine) bolts may, over time, loosen, and eventually break. If this occurred, a reduced engine power (safe mode) may be activated. In some cases, the engine may not be able to be restarted after switching off and, in rare cases, the engine could stall which could increase the risk of a crash. Safety Risk
Got a recall notice in November 2023 and we are now in April 2024 and no remedy for my car yet. I am not able to drive this car due to this problem and do not want to risk getting stranded or having an accident due to a failure. How long to wait to be "timely"? My car is in a garage gathering dust because of this and me being forced to use another car for my transportation. Hope this issue is fixed soon...hopefully before the end of April 2024. Thanks. NHTSA Recall Number 23V707

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
