I have contacted the BMW dealership in Henderson several times about the recall and they do not have a fix from the BMW. I contacted BMW about the issue and filed a complaint with them to offer a solution of replacing the vehicle or return the vehicle for a buyout. I reported the problem to BMW on May 20, 2024 and the manufacture is not informing me of any update or responding to my request. The BMW i7 is unsafe to drive and on three occasions I have almost been involved in an accident because the vehicle is taking longer to stop and I have to firmly press on the brakes in order to stop the car. I would like BMW to offer a solution to repurchase the vehicle as I have significant safety concerns driving the car. I have been in constant contact with Seema Kumar Executive Customer Care and Customer Relations and Services at BMW. She has been saying to me that she is waiting on a update from her team and every week there has been no update and I am still making payments on a car this has been defective for over 5 months with the brakes.

Brand new car bought in Nov 2023. On February 12, 2024, this Recall Campaign No. 24V-104: Integrated Brake (IB) Module came out - albeit with no remedy. It is now Jun 22nd - 4 months later - and there is still no remedy. I am adversely affected in the following ways: - I have been unable to drive the defective vehicle for over 4 months now - I have been unable to purchase the vehicle out of the lease as they won't provide a payoff-quote with an open recall - I am unable to re-sell the vehicle with the open recall. 4 months is an unacceptable time to remedy (and it may be a lot longer, or never) - as by the time the recall came out, I had only owned the car for less than 3 months. As of today, I was unable to use the car for a longer time than I have been able to use it since leasing it brand new. Over the past 4 months, every time I attempted to have the recall addressed at a BMW dealership, I was repeatedly told there was no remedy available.

The car warning flashes “drivetrain fault”. Then after about 5 seconds the car put itself into neutral and started to slow down. I pulled off to the side of the highway before it stopped on its own . I was not able to start the car back up. I got it towed to the dealership . I am told that the AC compressor failure to the high voltage battery system , shut down the system . Seems very dangerous to do that while I was driving on the highway !
I purchased a new BMW i7 xDrive60 at the end of December 2023. There have been numerous software issues since I purchased the vehicle. Yesterday while driving at low speed, a car in front of me at a stop light slammed on brakes. I attempted to depress the brake but it was too late. My car collided with the vehicle in front. I did not initially see the driver ahead of me stop as I was looking to the side for oncoming traffic. All of the ADAS systems are activated in my vehicle and set to the most sensitive settings including the autonomous emergency braking/FCW which is set to “Early” response. My vehicle provided no warning of the impending collision nor did it attempt to brake on its own. There is an issue with the AEB functionality in the i7 that needs to be investigated. In addition to this issue, there’s also a problem with the automatic brake hold function when the car stops. Due to poor programming, after bringing the car to a stop by using regenerative braking the car then rolls backward or forward (depending on the slope) before the auto hold function applies the brakes. This is unlike any other car with this function including other BMWs we have owned. It increases the likelihood of a collision as the car rolls after coming to a complete stop. I have driven another electric BMW and experienced this issue. It is also mentioned all over various BMW owner forums. My vehicle cost $137,000 and did not even alert of a forward collision or attempt to brake on its own as it

The front doors release button are designed and placed on the car door which can open as soon as your knee unintentionally touches the button. This poses a risk of opening the doors while the car is in motion.

On 2023 BMW i7 while I was trying to park in a parking stall moving forwards at a very low speed in a shopping center( less than a 1 m/h) . The car suddenly and very aggressively took off and accelerate on me while I was straightening the steering wheel to pull more forwards, heading another parked car in front it, head to head and pushed/ slid the parked car about 20 feet. I have no idea if any button was pushed or activated with my palm while steering to park. No signs or indicator or sensor warned before accident and nothing after accident.
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.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
