Newest filingsYesterday 4pm try to park my car at infront of grage door i have been slow down with touch break pedal. But this car won't stop at all so this car hit home grage door and and side stone decorations.
Since the purchase of my vehicle, 07/01/2024: When in reverse vehicle does not issue audible warning alerts for other vehicles, objects or pedestrians crossing or approaching behind or from the side. Additionally, no audible warning alerts in the front as the vehicle approaches objects such as trees, vehicles parked in space opposite or persons darting in front of the car.
I was in electric mode pulling slowly into a parking garage parking space this was a rental car from National. As I pulled in the car lights came on and the car accelerated and crashed me into the cement wall of the parking garage, the brakes would not stop the car. There was damage to the front but the air bags did not deploy. I called National to have the car towed. I see there are several reports of this happening with BMW.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
