The vehicle backfires and stalls on the road due to BMWs defective pcv crankcase valve. The valve put pressure inside engine which it couldn't handle causing a blown gasket and oil leak, the leak fell on the serpentine belt and AC belt and they slipped off. Causing the power steering to lock up on me while driving. The engine has a whistling noise coming from it. I'm parking and towing to bmw. I can diagnose it without there scanner. This is crazy and very dangerous.

My vehicles serpentine belt broke twice and my A.C. belt broke once due to the tensioner pulley bolt loosening over time. I lost power steering and power of the over all vehicle. I was driving at 60 miles per hour, there has been a recall on this part for this exact same model but BMW is saying it is vin specific. This is very unsafe.

The contact owns a 2009 BMW X5. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 MPH, smoke was suddenly coming through the air vents and vehicle started losing motive power before stalling. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the passenger’s side main wiring harness was charred and melted and needed to be replaced. The wiring harness was replaced but the failure immediately reoccurred. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 140,000.

More than one time I have been traveling at regular speed and the vehicle will suddenly power off and shift into Park. While I’m driving, the battery still has power but the engine shuts off. I am suddenly stopped in the middle of the highway, turning in an intersection, going up a incline. I then try to start the vehicle and it will not turn over. The car remains stuck in park. Eventually the battery wears down and will not even engage the starter. But the lights and flashers will still be on. I have taken the car in multiple times to the bmw dealership telling them of the situation and they tell me it is not showing any problem. The vehicle does not give any warning and there are no engine or warning lights that appear. This happens at any time of day. There are constant complaints of these issues happening with multiple models of bmw.

My engine is being effected by the recall. There is smoke and a burning smell coming from my engine. The Recall was issued March 2 2002 and today is January 11, 2022. My truck is driving worse daily and I can not get it inspected because it will not read my system.

The contact owns a 2009 BMW X5. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V119000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer and manufacturer were made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

While parked in my driveway, the car by it self caught fire and melted the entire fusebox, major wire harness, entire right rear panel was burnt and melted, rear headliner, and rear light housing. When I opened the door there was a huge black cloud of smoke inside.

During extreme hot days car has just stopped without warning three times. Fuel pump has been replaced twice , now they are saying wiring from the fuel pump to the computer system the wiring bad? No warning ever!

I just went to Union Park Bmw about my car, they stated that my car fuel pump was recalled in 2017 so it was fixed, in 2021 l was stranded twice in 100 degree weather on the side road when the fuel pump went out, so this is the third time this vehicle has had new fuel pumps, now this month on Tuesday 7 /19 when it was hot as hades it stopped again same way it did prior , had it towed and they stated it was wiring that leads to the engine from the fuel pump. They made sure as part of there man made 358.00$ diagnosis that it was not related to the fuel pum.

Headlight wires are made poorly. Susceptible to heat damage. The wire insulation cracks off, leaving bare copper wires to touch. Therefore, the low beams, etc will no longer function. The only solution is $3,000+ on new headlights.

I was returning home from work and the engine started to sputter/vibrate. I was right next to a gas station and as I was pulling into the gas station, the engine died and would not restart. I had the car towed and then I proceeded to troubleshoot the problem. I did a fuel pressure test and found that there was no fuel pressure. I tested the fuel pump relay and found it to be operational. I accessed the primary fuel pump to check power and found the fuel pump wiring to be missing an inch of insulation on both wires and the insulation is brittle for another inch or two. There were two splices on the fuel pump wiring where recall #16V746000 was performed and a new connector was spliced in. Those two splices were melted together. Recall #16V746000 was a problem with the fuel pump connector melting due to loose wiring. I have concern that there is still an issue with the fuel system wiring overheating or the repair process is not adequate to solve the issue.

The dealer was notified of the failure and the contact was given a second appointment. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000. The VIN was not available.

I CALLED BMW HEADQUARTERS 3-25-19 AND FILED A REPORT, THEY TOLD ME MY VIN# WASN'T RECALLED BUT I SAID IT IS FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT MAT THAT WAS RECALLED APRIL 2009 AND THIS SHOULD BE COVERED IF IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD ESCALATE IT. TODAY, 3-26-19, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM ANOTHER BMW REP AND THEY SAID THEY WERE WORKING ON IT BUT THEY WOULD PROBABLY NOT COVER IT DUE TO THE AGE OF THE CAR AND MILEAGE. I TOLD THEM, "NO,, YOUR APRIL 2009 RECALL SAYS IT WAS EXTENDED 10 YEARS WITHOUT MILEAGE LIMIT, SO IT SHOULD BE COVERED". THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IF OTHER SAME MAKE,MODEL, YEAR WERE RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING THEN THEY NEED TO FIX MY CAR AT THEIR COST. I NEED YOUR HELP IN GETTING THIS CAR RESOLVED AS I JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT IT.

MY 2009 BMW X5 IS EXHIBITING THE SAME ISSUES LISTED ON THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V339000 RELATING TO THE 'FUEL FILTER HEATER/ POSSIBLE FIRE' ISSUE. ALTHOUGH THE MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR ARE EXACTLY AS LISTED ON THE NHTSA RECALL 13V339000 FOR SOME REASON MY VEHICLE'S VIN IS NOT LISTED ON THE RECALL NOTE. I PLEADED WITH THE BMW DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE MAKE MODEL AND YEAR ARE THE SAME TO NO AVAIL.

PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH ADDING MY VEHICLE VIN TO THE RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. THANK YOU.

ENGINE FAILURE WITH LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE AND PISTON ROD BREAKING OFF THE CRANK CASE WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 60-65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY

I AM SMELLING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR HEALTH EXHAUST FUMES INSIDE THE CAR WHILE DRIVING. THE MORE THE CABIN HEAT IS APPLIED, THE MORE EXHAUST SMELL IS NOTICEABLE. I FOUND MANY FORUMS ONLINE RELATED TO THE SAME ISSUE ON 2009 AND UP DIESEL POWERED BMW X5 XDRIVE35D. PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT FAULTY EGR COOLERS, LEAKING TURBOS ETC. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED. THANK YOU.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 BMW X5. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT WAS INVOLVED IN A MULTIPLE VEHICLE COLLISION. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BACK, NECK, AND PELVIS INJURIES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS NOT INJURED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

I BOUGHT MY 2009 BMW X5 VEHICLE IN JUNE 2018, WITH APPROXIMATELY 61,630 MILES AND A LIMITED WARRANTY WITH 'POWER TRAIN COVERAGE', WHICH INCLUDED 'ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, FRONT WHEEL DRIVE, AND REAR WHEEL DRIVE'. IN MID-OCTOBER 2018, MY VEHICLE BEGAN SHOWING THE 'LOW COOLANT LEVEL' LIGHT AND 'LOW OIL LEVEL' LIGHT. I CALLED THE FLOW BMW DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE ON 10/19/18. FLOW BMW DIAGNOSED A LEAK IN THE RADIATOR. AFTER CONTACTING THE WARRANTY COMPANY (ASSURE) THE WARRANTY COMPANY INFORMED THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF A NEW RADIATOR ($1,300.00) BECAUSE IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE LIMITED WARRANTY UNDER 'POWER TRAIN COVERAGE'. THE RADIATOR IS ONE OF THE ENGINE'S UNSUNG HEROES. IT'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ESSENTIAL HEAT EXCHANGE FUNCTIONS IN YOUR CAR'S COOLING SYSTEM. THE NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE OF THE AVERAGE CAR ENGINE IS AROUND 190-210 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. WITH A DEFECTIVE RADIATOR, THE INCREASED HEAT STARTS TO WEAR ON OTHER ENGINE COMPONENTS, AND THE RESULTING STRESS CAN SHORTEN ENGINE LIFE DRAMATICALLY. THE COOLANT SYSTEM IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL TO KEEPING THE ENGINE RUNNING. THIS IS A DANGER TO THE DRIVER AND TO OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THE RADIATOR ISSUE AND INEVITABLE ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY TO OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD IF THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE SEIZES ARE STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT OTHER BMW CUSTOMERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE RADIATORS IN BMWS FROM THE YEARS

THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE BY THE MANUFACTURER TO CORRECT IT NEW HARNESSES WILL BE BURNT JUST LIKE THE OLD ONES IF IT'S NOT RECTIFIED

I STOPPED AT A DRIVE THRU WINDOW AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I COULDN'T GET IT STARTED AND THE POLICE TRIED TO PUT IN NEUTRAL TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY. NO LIGHTS OR ANYTHING INDICATED THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS.THE AIRBAG RESTRAINT LIGHT IS ON AND WAITING FOR THE SENSOR. NOT SURE IF THIS IS A RECALL. IT WAS TOWED TO A SHOP AND THEN IT STARTED WHEN GETTING IT OFF THE TOW TRUCK. I DON'T TRUST DRIVING IT NOW BECAUSE IT CAN GO OUT WHILE I'M ON THE FREEWAY OR HIGHWAY AND CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THERE ARE NO REPORTS BECAUSE I WAS AT A DRIVE THRU AND JUST TRIED TO GET IT OUT OF THE WAY. WE HAD THE LATEST RECALL DONE ON 08/31/2018.

MY 2009 X5 WITH 127000 MILES RECENTLY INDICATED A BURNT OUT BRAKE LIGHT. WHILE REPLACING THE LIGHT, I FOUND THE REAR UPPER RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT WAS BURNT OUT, THE TAILLIGHT ITSELF IS MELTED, AND THE SOCKET IS SEVERELY MELTED AND SCORCHED. ON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, THE OPPOSITE SIDE (LEFT/DRIVER'S SIDE) WAS ALSO MELTED! CHECKING ONLINE, THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID THIS COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD AND WAS SURPRISED TO LEARN THERE IS NOT AN OUTSTANDING RECALL ON THE TAILLIGHTS FOR THIS VEHICLE.

MY CAR CAUGHT FIRE WHILE DRIVING UNDER MY PASSENGER BACKSEAT WHERE THE FUEL PUMP IS LOCATED UP UNDER. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME, SNATCHED OUT SEAT AND PUT THE FLAME OUT.

MY TRUCK BMW PARKING FOR MORE THAN 6 HOURS, FIRE WITHOUT A KNOWN CAUSE, REMAINING WITH TOTAL LOSS, I COMMUNICATED VIA EMAIL WITH THE BMW, AFTER REVIEWING THE INTERNET AND FIND THE RESEARCH DONE BY YOU, AND RECEIVING THE POSSIBLE DIAGNOSTIC OF WHAT HAPPENED "AN OVERHEATING IN THE PCB VALVE THAT RUSTED AND CAUSED THE TRUCK TO FIRE", AND KNOWING THE BELLS THAT ARE REAPING TO PICK UP THE VEHICLES IN THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA, BUT THAT THEY KNOW SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO OTHER COUNTRIES, I PUT IN I KNOW THE FACTS, RECEIVING FROM THEM, EXACTLY THE BMW GROUP MEXICO, THE ANSWER THAT THEY HAD NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE EVENTS, BECAUSE TWO YEARS AGO I DID NOT MAINTAIN OR WASH THE ENGINE WITH THEM; FACTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEFECT OF THE VEHICLE. PLEASE ASK FOR YOUR HELP AND COLLABORATION, THE INCIDENT OCCURRED IN CUCUTA, COLOMBIA. THE POLICE OF MY COUNTRY MADE AN INSPECTION OF THE EVENTS, WHICH RESULTED IN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS NOTHING EXTERNAL THAT HAD CAUSED THE FIRE, WHICH WAS THE TRUCK ALONE, WHICH CAUGHT ON AND IN VERY SHORT TERMS WAS BURNED AS A TOTAL LOSS. I REALLY UNDERSTAND THAT THIS COUNTRY HAS RULES THAT CAN GIVE ME A PROTECTION, BUT THE BMW IS ONE, AND THE MANUFACTURER MUST RESPOND FROM ANY POINT OF VIEW, BY VEHICLES THAT MANUFACTURE NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE. REVIEWING THE MODELS AND YEARS TO WHICH THEY ARE PREDICTED TO HAVE THIS DEFECT, IS THE X5 SERIES, BETWEEN THE YEARS OF MANUFACTURE 2007 TO 2011, AND THE TRUCK OF MY PROPERTY IS X5 - 2009. THIS IS THE ANS
