Unintended acceleration with loss of braking effectiveness. We hit a tree head on going at least 50 by the time we struck it. The vehicle was inspected before we bought it and we only bought it 3 days before the accident occurred. The check engine light came on that afternoon and we were going to get it checked out on Monday.

When purchased, it was discovered that the OE Passenger Side (Right) brake light/indicator housing of this vehicle had melted from the heat of the standard OE halogen brake bulb, causing the brake light to fall out of its placement in the housing. This results in the brake light indicator to emit little or no visible warning to other drivers, since the indicator bulb has fallen down outside of the casing. Because the indicator may not be visible to other drivers, it presents a hazard of others not being warned that I am braking and could result in drivers of other vehicles not being prepared to brake and therefore could result in a collision that can vary from minor fender bender to fatal collision. It could also result in a more devastating vehicle fire that could destroy more than just the indicator housing. It is visible and is reproduced every time vehicle brake pedal is depressed and brake indicators are engaged. Problem has been confirmed by BMW of South Austin. This specific vehicle has yet to be inspected by insurance, police, manufacturer or others, but is a known problem with these rear indicator housing assemblies that are present on both sides of the vehicle. No warning chimes or signals were present before, during, or after incident, and to this day, there are still no warning signals, signs, chimes, or indicators present.

2007 X5 4.8 WITH PANORAMIC SUNROOF, SUNROOF TRAY OVERFLOWS AND LEAKS INTO INTERIOR ELECTRICAL, AIRBAGS, AND CARPET DUE TO DEFECTIVE DESIGN/ASSEMBLY (BOTH WHEN STATIONARY AND IN MOTION). SUNROOF DRAINS BOTH FRONT AND REAR HAVE DRAIN TUBES WHICH ARE PRONE TO KINK AND BACK UP WATER INTO THE SUNROOF TRAY, WHICH THEN SPILLS OVER ONTO THE TOPSIDE OF THE HEADLINER AND FROM THERE ONTO JUST ABOUT EVERY ELECTRONIC ITEM IN THE CAR INCLUDING AIR BAGS AND CONTROLLERS, LIGHTING CONTROLS, AND ELECTRICAL BOXES ON THE FLOOR AND TRUNK AREA. SOME HAVE REPORTED ARCS AND CAR FIRES DUE TO THE WATER DAMAGE; BMW SAYS IT IS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE ALTHOUGH HAS ZERO LISTED FOR SUNROOF MAINTENANCE, AND NO AMOUNT OF CLEANING IS GOING TO FIX THE SUNROOF DRAIN LINES THAT I FOUND TWISTED...LIKELY BEEN THAT WAY SINCE INITIAL ASSEMBLY, BUT ROUTING DOWN INSIDE THE APILLARS MAKES IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO TRY TO FIX IT, MUCH LESS SEE IT. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS DEFECT HASN'T INVOLVED NHTSA RECALL SINCE IT CAN VERY EASILY LEAD TO AN IN-USE ELECTRICAL FIRE AT WORST, OR AT BEST FAILURE OF AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY WHEN NEEDED DUE TO WATER/CORROSION ISSUES, AS WELL AS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN ELECTRICAL DAMAGE FOR EACH OCCURRENCE.

I GLAD THAT THIS FAILURE WAS NOT A HIGH SPEED AND WE WERE ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. OTHERWISE COULD BE FATALITIES. SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS PART. FORUMS SHOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAVE 134494 MILES AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WITH PART FAILURE. ONE OWNER AND MAINTAINED BY BMW DEALER SINCE NEW

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THIS RECALL, I ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 1.5 YEARS AND THIS IS THE THIRD RECALL! MY CURRENT MAIN CONCERN IS THERE IS A BURNING GAS LIKE OIL ODOR IN MY CAR. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE SAYING REMEDY IS UNAVAILABLE! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE MY LIFE AND MY CHILDREN LIFE IS IN DANGER. BMW SHOULD PROVIDE AN IMMEDIATE RESOLUTION!! WHEN I START THE CAR I SMELL BURNING SMELL AND SOMETIMES SEE SMOKE COME FROM HOOD OF CAR. I TOOK MY CAR TO BMW 2 MONTHS AGO FOR SERVICE AND WAS TOLD ALL WAS WELL WITH MY CAR. TWO OTHER RECALLS WERE CORRECTED HOWEVER, I STILL HAVE THE SAME GAS ODOR WHICH WAS DUE TO ANOTHER RECALL DEALING WITH THE FUEL TANK. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD DRIVING THIS CAR, AND ITS AN INSULT FOR BMW TO SEND A LETTER STATING THE ISSUE BUT STATE THERE IS NO REMEDY WHEN THE RECALL CONSEQUENCES CAN CAUSE A FIRE! AND YOU TELLING ME THERE IS NO IMMEDIATE REMEDY!! PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS, I WILL ALSO BE CONTACTING BMW CUSTOMER RELATIONS IN REGARDS TO THIS MATTER.

DASHBOARD MESSAGE MALFUNCTION ON AIRBAGS. ALSO TOO MUCH SMOKE ON THE BACK OF THE CAR

I HAVE DISCOVERED A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH MY 2007 X5. I LIVE IN SOUTH FLORIDA AND AFTER A HEAVY RAIN, I NOTICED THAT THE TRUNK OF MY CAR WAS FILLED WITH WATER. I REMOVED 3.5 GALLONS OF WATER. I WENT TO START THE CAR BUT AS YOU CAN IMAGINE WITH THE BATTERY AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS BEING COVERED IN THAT MUCH WATER, IT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. ONCE I HAD REMOVED THE WATER AND LET IT DRY OUT I CHARGED THE BATTERY AND WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR. WHEN I GOT IT TO START, THE DASHBOARD LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. MY ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKE, CHECK ENGINE, 4X4 LIGHTS ALL LIT UP AMONGST SOME OTHER WARNING LIGHTS. I WAS UNABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE OR REVERSE AND HAD TO MANUALLY PUSH IT IN THE GARAGE. THE CAR IS STUCK IN A LIMP MODE/SAFE MODE. AFTER I HAD DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM FOR BMW'S. I LEARNED THAT THERE WAS A US DISTRICT COURT RULING AGAINST THIS ISSUE AND THAT BMW 5 SERIES CARS BETWEEN 2004-2010 WERE COVERED IN A RECALL. THE RECALL IS DUE TO FAULTY WATER DRAIN TUBES COMING FROM THE SUNROOF AND WHEN THEY GET CLOGGED THE WATER DRAINS INTO THE TRUNK WHERE THE BATTERY IS LOCATED AMONGST OTHER IMPORTANT ELECTRONIC ELEMENTS. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL BMW DEALER AS WELL AS BMW OF NORTH AMERICA AND ALTHOUGH THEY ARE QUITE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME AS THE RECALL PERTAINS ONLY TO THE 5 SERIES VEHICLES. IT'S FRUSTRATING THAT BMW IS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT BECAUSE THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT SPECIFIES ONL

VALVE COVER GASKET LEAKS. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I REPLACED THE GASKET. IT WAS ONLY GOOD FOR 6 MONTHS.

I KEEP BEEN BLOW-OFF ABOUT TAKING CARE OF THESE RECALLS AT BERT SMITH INTERNATIONAL,727-527-1111. THEY KEEP SAYING THAT THEY ARE AWAITING FOR THE PARTS . IT'S BEEN FOR OVER A MONTH NOW.

DOSE NOT ACTIVATE

FUEL ODOR IS CONSTANT AROUND THE VEHICLE. RECALL ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAGS. RECALL ON FUEL TANK FILTER

THE AUTO IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE STEERING SENSOR KEEPS MALFUNCTIONING AND PUTS CAR IN LIMP MODE. HAPPENED 7 TIMES IN ONE DAY, CAR IN LIMP MODE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC . MAKING A LEFT TURN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC IT MALFUNCTIONED AND TRAFFIC BEHIND ME CAME EXTREMELY CLOSE TO COLLISION BECAUSE CAR LOST 99% OF POWER. CAR HAS ACTIVE RECALLS VERY OLD NOW BMW SAYS TEY HAVE NO PARTS TO REPAIR. THIS CAR HAS 37,186 MILES ON IT , MAKING THE OPERATING COST OVER $2.00 A MILE NOT INCLUDING GASOLINE OR MAINTAINENCE. TO RESET MALFUNTIONING SENSOR THE BATTERY IS DISCONECTED TO REBOOT THE ENGINE CONTROLLS RECONECTED RESTART THEN TURN HARD LEFT AND THEN HARD RIGHT, NORMAL DRIVING IS RESUMED ON THIS UNIT IT ONLY WORKS UNTILL YOU SLOW FOR TRAFFIC OR TO MAKE A TURN MAKING THE CAR AND TRAFFIC AROUND IT EXTEMELY UNSAFE AS THE AUTO HAS SUDDEN POWER LOSS. THE RECALLS ON AUTO ARE OLD AND AGAIN BMW SAY NO REPLACEMENT PARTS. PHONE MESSAGES TO SERVICING DEALER ARE UNANSWERED AND WHERE I LIVE THER IS NO DEALER. MY OWN SEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALED ALL 5 SERIES BMW HAVE COMPLAINTS OF THIS MALFUNCTION. I AM A CANCER PATIENT AND USING THIS VEHICLE TO TRAVEL TO TREATMENTS IS GOING TO KILL ME BEFORE THE CANCER. AND MAYBE OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE TOO. I FEEL THAT BMW LOOKING IN TO IT IS NOT ENOUGH ACTION NTSB SHOULD TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION AND BMW SHOULD BE MADE LIABLE FOR ALL REPAIRS AND RESPONCIBLE FOR THE TRANSPORTATION OF AFFECTED AUTOS TO A REPAIR CENTER AS THE AUTOS ARE IN FACT UNSAFE TO OPE

MY WIFE DRIVES THE VEHICLE ALONG WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SOMETIMES. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. EVERY MORNING, IT TAKES 10 TO 15 MINS TO START THE CAR. THE LAST WEEK OR SO, THE CAR DOESN'T START AT ALL CAUSING CHAOS FOR US TO GO TO WORK. LAST WEEK MY WIFE WAS BACKUP AND THE CAR STALLED. I AM CONCERNED WITH THIS AS MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER ARE IN THE CAR THE MOST. THIS COULD BECOME A SERIOUS ISSUE.

THIS IS INVOLVING THE RECALL ISSUED FOR MY VEHICLE INVOLVING THE IN TANK FUEL PUMP...BMW STILL HAS NOT FIXED THIS ISSUE, I HAVE CALLED OUR LOCAL DEALER IN CICERO, NEW YORK AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED OVER 6 MOS AGO AND MY VEHICLE'S INSPECTION WAS DUE IN MARCH AND THEY WILL NOT PASS IT BECAUSE THE EMISSIONS ISSUE CAUSES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO BE ON. SO I KEEP GETTING TICKETS BECAUSE I AM AN ATTORNEY AND NEED MY CAR TO DRIVE ALL OVER FOR WORK. ITS RIDICULOUS THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED IN OVER 6 MOS AND I KEEP GETTING THE SAME EXCUSE FROM THE DEALER. ALSO, THE AIRBAG RECALLS HAVE NOT BEEN ADDRESSED EITHER PRESENTING ANOTHER DANGER IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT.
