Car jyst shut down in the middle of the street without any dashbord lights, strange noises or symptoms. Won't turn over. After tow to BMW dealer they said oil pump broke. I took it to volvo dealer they said oil starvation. They changed design of oil pump drive but don't inform anybody to do it which is very unacceptable. And they should do recall on that. That was very dangerous situation. This oil pump very slowly desteoys without any symptoms. It's really ticking time bomb becouse they now it quietly change design.Thank you.

I have tried reaching BMW USA 3-4 times since November 2024 until now. The representative said BMW is working on correcting the problem. I have CC the email that was sent this June 2025 with no replies. 1 year has passed since the recall was issued and BMW USA has not created a remedy/fix for the coolant problem. I had this car on the TURO car rental platform as I am a host on TURO. I can't list this car to rent out because of the recall. Turo will not allow owners of recalled cars to list their cars because the car could be "potentially unsafe." Yet, the "owner" is driving these "unsafe"' cars on the road. I did my part. I already sent another recent email to get a solution. What would be my next step? (Almost one year now....) Also, I am sending this email Pacific time at 5:07 WED., July 30th. On the document: the Update IS on THURSDAY JULY 31st. WHAT???!!!!! Make it make sense . Frustrated OWNER

The coolant pump on my BMW has failed due to a known recall issue (NHTSA Recall Number 24V608). Despite the recall being issued months ago, BMW has not provided a timely fix or remedy. As a result, the coolant pump began leaking, causing my vehicle to overheat and leak coolant, which has led to further damage and significant safety concerns. This issue put my safety and the safety of others at risk because the overheating occurred while driving, potentially leading to engine failure or an accident. The problem has been confirmed by my BMW dealer, but no repair has been made due to the lack of an available remedy. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer beyond the dealer visit, and no inspections have been performed by police or insurance representatives. There were no specific warning lamps or messages indicating a coolant pump failure prior to the initial overheating incident, although the vehicle did eventually display warnings about engine overheating. The failure is directly related to the unresolved recall issue, and I am requesting that BMW expedite a remedy to prevent further damage and safety risks.

Passenger brake light harness keeps melting. This is my second Bmw and both had the same problem. The car keeps having loss of power while driving on the freeway. Probably something to do with fuel pump.
