WIRING HARNESS RECALL WARNING WAS 10 MONTHS AGO. DEALERSHIP SAYS NO PART IS IN YET. EVERY NITE I WONDER IF MY CAR WILL CATCH FIRE N MY GARAGE. THEY NEED TO FIX OR GIVE A LOANER OR SOMETHING TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. THIS IS THE 3RD ATTEMPT TO GET A RESPONSE FROM YOU GUYS WHO AREN'T MUSH BETTER IT WOULD SEEM. GET SOMETHING DONE SOON, PLEASE.

BMW RECALL CAMPAIGN NO. 17V-676: BLOWER MOTOR WIRING. ACCORDING TO RECALL COULD LEAD TO FIRE. ACCORDING TO BMW NOTICE AS OF DECEMBER 2017THERE IS NO REMEDY. FEBRUARY 12TH 2018, NO REMEDY. APRIL 4TH 2018, NO REMEDY. AT WHAT POINT DO THEY HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS?

DRIVING MY CAR AT 65MPH THE WHOLE CAR SHUT DOWN I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. WAS BARELY ABLE TO POWER THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND COAST INTO A PARKING LOT. WHERE I WAS STILL NOT IN A SAFE PLACE BECAUSE MY BRAKES HAD NO RESPONSE AS WELL. FINALLY SNATCHED UP THE EBRAKE AND THE CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED WITH ME DRIVING AND I'M LUCKY TO HAVE MY LIFE AFTER TWO HORRIFIC INCIDENTS LIKE THIS. ALSO I HAVE NO AIR BAG SO IF I WOULDN'T OF BEEN SO LUCKY TO NOT HIT ANYTHING HEAD ON I WOULD OF NOT EVEN HAD A AIRBAG DEPLOY. I WAS TOLD BY BMW MY CAR SHUT DOWN BECAUSE OF THE WATER PUMP BUT WHEN THIS WAS REPLACED AFTER A $950 BILL MY CAR STILL DOESN'T WORK AND NOW I'M BEING TOLD BY BMW NOW IT WILL BE ANOTHER $500 TO FIGURE IT OUT. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR FREE OF CONCERN FOR MORE THAN 6 MONTHS. AS MUCH AS THIS CAR HAS SHUT DOWN OR STALLED ON ME I DON'T FEEL IT'S SAFE FOR ANYONE TO DRIVE A VEHICLE LIKE THIS. GOT THE CAR JANUARY 2015 AND MY WARRANTY WAS USED UP WITHIN 1 YEAR FIXING THE SAME PARTS REPEATEDLY. NO MY CAR WON'T EVEN START OR RUN PROPERLY. THIS IS AFTER I GO THE WATER PUMP REPLACED LIKE I WAS INSTRUCTED BY BMW. I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH TO LOAD THAT DOCUMENT BUT I HAVE IT AVAILABLE ALSO.

TAKATA RECALL DRIVER'S FRONT AIR BAG: DURING AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT IN AN ACCIDENT, THE DRIVER'S FRONT AIR BAG MODULE MAY PRODUCE EXCESSIVE INTERNAL PRESSURE THAT COULD CAUSE THE INFLATOR TO RUPTURE.

I OWNED A 2008 BMW 335I FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS. LAST MONTH I WAS DRIVING THE CAR HOME AFTER PICKING IT UP FROM DEALER. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR FAILED AND ALSO WENT FOR THE BATTERY RECALL. DRIVING BACK FROM THE DEALER BACK TO MY APARTMENT WAS ABOUT 30-40 MINUTES. SO RIGHT WHEN I PULLED INTO THE APARTMENT PARKING LOT, I NOTICED MY TRUNK WAS SMOKING THROUGH MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. I QUICKLY TRIED TO PARK SOMEWHERE EMPTY, THEN I GOT OUT AND I SAW THE REAR END OF THE CAR WAS FLAMING UP. IT TOOK LESS THAN 20 MINUTES, THE ENTIRE CAR WAS COVERED WITH FIRE. SINCE THE FIRE STARTED FROM THE REAR, I AM SURE THAT'S THE BATTERY WIRE CONNECTION THAT CAUSED THIS. I AM FRUSTRATED BECAUSE I DD THIS CAR AND ONLY HAPPEN AFTER THE SERVICE FROM THE DEALER. ALSO WHY BMW DESIGN AND POSITION THE FREAKING BATTERY AND WIRES BEHIND THE GAS TANK?

WATER PUMP FAILURE THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR HAS NOW FAILED TWICE. IT FAILED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2013 AND I PAID THE DEALER TO REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE. IT HAS NOW FAILED AGAIN. THE CAR HAS 84,000 MILES ON IT. THERE IS NO WAY WATER PUMPS SHOULD FAIL TWICE.
