The accident happened while i was driving home from the dealer. While driving up a hill a suv three cars in front of me slammed on their brakes and stopped in the middle of a two lane road to make a left hand turn.the other two suv's in front of me were forced to hit their brakes hard.from a speed of 35 mph and a following distance of four car lengths i applied the brakes.nothing happened.as i applied the brakes harder the car still failed to slow down other than for the slight bit from going up hill. I was forced to fully depress the brake pedal, but still nothing happened.moments later i impacted the rear of the third car that had stopped in front of me.as a result of the accident my car requires extensive repairs to the front end.the two cars in front were not involved in any collision.after the accident there were no skid marks that would have indicated the brake had locked up and the airbags did not deploy.

I own a 2014 228i coupe, build date 03/2014 - the bolts securing the power steering motor to the rack have snapped leading to a power steering failure.this failure is consistent with:bmw tis service bulletin # si b01 26 18i called bmw to report the problem and was told that despite the fact that the bulletin describes my car as being effected, my vin is not listed in the part specific extended warranty and i would be forced to pay for this safety related defect out of my own pocket.my part number, location, symptoms, failure type, car make model and build date all match the criteria for the part specific extended warranty.the first bolt failed in may 2019, the second bolt that i can see sometime in april or may 2020.the car can currently steer, but with a lot of noise from the power steering motor, and without any power steering assistance.the failure was first noticed while stopped in my driveway, about to pull out.i have not yet brought my car in to bmw because i would like to ensure that my car falls under the extended warranty before i do.
