Read complaints for BMW 335D (2011)


Takata.resolution by closest bmw dealer, bmw of bellevue, washington, is indicating a may 2018 date for replacement.i feel that this is an inordinately extended time on top of the already long time for the replacement product.

The front passenger seatbelt sensor malfunctions and sets off the warning sound as if someone is siting in the seat when nobody or nothing is in the seat.this may cause airbag malfunctions or have it not deploy. This has been happening since the first day i bought the car several weeks ago.the issue is constant while i'm driving.

Intermittent fault on passenger restraint system affecting passenger airbag and belt tensioner. My car was not included in the recall for earlier e90 models with the sport seats. First fault occurred with approximately 118,000 miles on the car and has happened occasionally for the last 10,000 miles.fault code 0093c3

I have a passenger restraint system fault affecting airbag, belt tensioner.

I have a passenger restraint system fault affecting airbag, belt tensioner. My car has sport seats that have been recalled in a previouscampaign due to the seat mat sensor failure. My car was not included in the recall. Bmw quoted me a replacement seat mat using the same recalled product from 2013 and 2006. My car currently has a seat belt malfunction code and the seat mat sensor is defective. This went defective at 84,000 miles on the car. As a result, the airbags will not deploy in a crash because the seat does not detect an occupant with the seat belt malfunction!

Passenger airbag malfunction, seat sensitivity is touchy, reports an occupant when empty and gives an occasional malfunction warning, at any speed, any time.

Vehicle will occasionally lose all electrical power to the cabin of the vehicle. After research i found bmw recalls on the positive battery cable and its connection behind the fuse box. I accessed my cable behind the fuse box and moved the cable a small amount and power was restored. I assumed my vehicle would be covered under this recall since that is clearly the problem after taking the vehicle over 70 miles on way to the dealer they told me that my vin number was not covered under this recall # 13v044000. My car has this problem and fits all the criteria listed on the bmw documentation for the recall.

The vehicle continues to stahl and now the dealer said it was the high/low fuel pumps and injectors which cost more than the vehicle.i am stuck making payments this car is junk and the car needs to be recalled...... Every month i have a problem since october the vehicle has been in the shop 12 times.the injectors, fuel pumpi was told the catalytic converter, injectors and now fuel pump

My 2011 bmw 335d sedan has a recall on the blower motor wiring harness that could catch fire anytime, even when the car is parked and off. I have been unable to drive my car for over 2 months at this point, (while still making my high car payment) and parts are still not available, and no idea when they will be. Do i have any recourse for my loss? bmw north america says no, they are providing an enterprise rental car which is all they can do.

Whilst driving vehicle, battery warning light, brake warning lights came on. Vehicle lost all power steering, and was impossible to drive. After visit to dealership, appears that harmonic balancer was completely broken off, in turn, taking out various belts, including the belts that power a/c and most importantly power steering. Bmw already replaced these belts twice, under warranty. Unfortunately, it appears the harmonic balancer appears to be an issue for many of the 335d vehicles, as well as for x5 savs, equipped with same engine. Complete loss of powersteering, is an unacceptable danger, in particular for a part that appears to be weak (design flaw), as documented by other bmw 335d owners.

Car stalled multiple times while driving in the middle of the road while driving. Every time got luck and no one hit me from behind.dealer replaced engine, diesel pump and now reported all injectors failed.

Car stalled multiple times while driving. Each time it was a sudden death while driving. Every time got lucky that i was not followed by a truck and no one hit me from behind.

Blower motor wiring: this recall involves the wiring for the system, known as the blower-motor, that controls air flow for the heating and air conditioning system. Over time, the connection between the wiring and this system could deteriorate and, in rare cases, could lead to overheating. The blower system also leaks some type of oil which my mechanic indicated could also lead to a fire with the blowing motor wiring short circuiting. A few months back the heating/air conditioning system suddenly stopped functioning, it sent a strong smell of plastic and rubber burning throughout the vehicle interior. Also i have not received any letter regarding the recent recall from bmw, which my vehicle is also listed under that recall. Haven't i done any research on this i would still be driving my car around putting my life and family's lives at risk.

2011 bmw 335d. Consumer writes with regard to recall campaign no. 18v-314: power supply system, and inquires when repairs will be done.*asthe consumer stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time completing the recall repair.

Twice i've lost power on the freeway due to what i believe is the positive battery cable losing connection to the front fuse box. Even though this has been recalled in other 2008 to 2011 3-series models bmw has refused my requests to repair this under recall.

Received initial recall notice from bmw december 2017. As of may 27th 2018 a remedy is still not available to correct electrical issues that could cause a possible fire. Bmw is able to provide parts to produce new auto's but makes little effort to correct know issues on the autos that it has already sold.

I've had to replace the egr module to avoid catastrophic results. An identical issues resulted in a recall from bmw for diesels from other years: https://www.consumerreports.org/car-recalls-defects/bmw-recalls-diesel-cars-and-suvs-for-fire-risk/ . However, bmw has chosen not to expand the recall to cover this engine failure in all of the diesels. It's potentially only a matter of time before this starts to show up with increased frequency.

The car is in the shop every week i have had it towed 12 times since may.i took it in for the recall (electrical issued recently)the vehicle ran great, now the dealership says i need 3 new injectors.the injectors are bad.i am reading reviews and others stated their bmw's need new injectors.so is their a recall for injectors i did not see?the car stahled while i was driving it stopped in the middle of the road.

While driving the car the reduced power message came on, drove car for another 15 minutes home, at home in the driveway opened the hood and saw that the engine was glowing red on passenger side, very hot under the hood,within minutes flames ignited and black smoke came from under the hood.we ran for water hose and put out the fire.vehicle now has multiple error messages due to damaged wire harness according to bmw dealer, wire harness will need to be replaced before full understanding of the condition of the car can be determined.

It started may, 2017, when my 335d was idling rough and jerked as i was driving at a slow speed. I took it into crevier bmw in santa ana. The car had 53,000 miles and they said it had carbon build up on the intake manifold and #1 & 5 fuel injector. They replaced the fuel injectors and walnut blast the manifold. Swirl ports, egr and throttle housing cleaned as well.apr, 2018 58,000 miles,faulty active tank temperature sensor replaced.aug, 2018 60,000 miles, replaced faulty fuel injectors #2,3,4,5 and faulty cam sensor.jan, 2019 64,000 car running rough at idle. Started using fuel injector cleaner in fuel tank. This stopped the rough idle. Car runs rough every time if i don't add the injector cleaner. March 2020 73,000 miles, intake manifold removed and walnut blast again. Replaced both faulty nox sensors. Faulty codes on air mass intake.nov 2020 76,000 miles, faulty fuel injectors # 1,2,4, #5 glow plug, mass/volume air flow, intake temperature sensor. Did not pass smog. Took to dealer and they could not figure out what to repair to get it to pass smog. Very frustrated...

Less than 70k miles and had to replace manifold, injectors etc due to excess carbon bmw needs to do more to address the issue of pollution on these vehicles

The 2011 vehicle with less than 65,000 miles normal runs at highway speed in a range of 2k rpms. A warning regarding the transmission immediately caused the car to rev up to 5k rpm (very high for a diesel engine sedan) and the speed reduces 30-40mph while driving. It is incredibly scary and dangerous. Assumed this was a one-off. Pulled to the shoulder, turned off the car and it ran fine.took it to bmw for inspection and they said they could not diagnose the problem but would replace the transmission and charge me more than half the value of the car. The issue has since repeated and is very dangerous to all on the road.

While coming to a stop in a parking lot the steering became difficult and the smell of burning rubber was present. Had the car been going a high rate of speed it would have been disastrous.

Steering wheels is suck want turning in my driveway steering wheels lock up can getting turning what can we do
