Vehicle eletronic steering malfunctioned (eps), same way as tis bulletin si b01 26 18 and recall si b32 12 16. Vehicle wouldn't steer correctly on the road and the whole steering rack had to be replaced. One month out of bmw warranty, had to pay for entire repair out of my pocket.
The contact owned a 2016 bmw 428i. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle failed to exceed 5 mph. The vehicle was taken rallye bmw (1 brush hollow rd, westbury, ny 11590, 516-393-0000) however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The failure recurred with an abnormal ticking sound coming from the engine. The contact stated that the engine was replaced by the dealer. The failure to accelerate returned and an unknown software update was performed by the dealer. The dealer stated that the vehicle was not roadworthy. The vehicle was traded. The manufacturer was notified of the failure via email. The failure mileage was 23,640.
When diving on the freeway ihad an drive terrain malfunction error in my bmw 4281. My car stared to slow down extremely fast and i could not accelerate to get over to the far right lane safely. Everything seemed to be in some lock mode and i would press the gas and would only go less than 20 mph. Almost got rear ended 3 times and sideswiped by a big rig trying to make it over into the far right emergency lane. My wife and i thought we were going to be killed or cause a major accident. Could not even get in neutral just to coast over. Made it over called sos road side assistants. Told me with these issues just need to turn off the engine for 5 minutes and it should re-set. I did that and it seemed to fix the issue to let me make it home. Took sided streets the whole way and took it into the dealership. They are telling me that this function is to protect the car. I told them what about protecting drivers, passengers and others on the road way. This is not a safety device but something that can trigger a major accidents and deaths. The dealerships stated this is in all newer bmw makes and models and can be triggered by many more malfunctions. It cannot be turned off. Way too dangerous! i have owned bmw's for over 20 years and now i would never drive or have my grand kids in any bmw that has this function device or should say "malfunction" device.
The contact owns a 2016 bmw 428i. While driving 75 mph, the vehicle stalled and "drive terrain malfunction/vehicle not able to start" displayed. The contact was able to coast the vehicle off to the side of the road, and restart it after numerous attempts (30 minute wait). The vehicle was towed to a local dealer (bmw of henderson, 261 auto mall dr, henderson, nv, 8901) where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump failed and the entire fuel pump system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. In addition, while driving home after the repair, the rubber window trim flew off and the contact heard an abnormal hissing sound. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (south bay bmw, 18800 hawthorne blvd, torrance, ca, 90504), but they were unable to duplicate the hissing noise; however, they repaired the rubber window trim. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and stated that the failures did not warrant a safety obligation from bmw. The failure mileage was approximately 14,000.
While driving on the highway during rain i went to pass a car and pushed the gas pedal and the car seemed to spin out a little and then the engine lost most of its power and started to sputter and gargle as if it was going to stall out.the warning for power train failure came on.very dangerous on a freeway of speeds up to 60+.had to get over, exit the freeway and pull into a gas station.i figured i would let it sit and then try to start again and see what error codes came on.when i restarted the car all seemed back to normal.the very next day when pulling out on to a busy road, i pressed the gas and the car did the very same thing.i then googled the issue and it is a ongoing issue across several bmw models and years.i would recommend you google this drive train issue and see that this is something that needs to be investigated and resolved.
Two collisions and several other incidents where i was driving 40-60 mph, the cars in front of me suddenly braked, and i immediately braked with enough time and distance to completely stop the vehicle before colliding with the vehicle in front of me. Each time, although i slammed my foot on the brake immediately, the car felt like it was braking, but not nearly as fast or as intensely enough given the amount of pressure i was applying to the brakes and the time and distance i had to stop before reaching the car in front of me. In two of these instances, where there were cars in the adjacent lanes, i was not able to swerve away to avoid the car in front of me, i collided with the car in front of me. In other instances, i was only able to avoid a collision by swerving into adjacent lanes.
Manual parking/emergency brake won't engage.

Several times the drivers door will not open when the vehicle is in parkand the engine is turned off. When i took the car to passport bmw in suitland maryland on 7/10to repair the front brake i mention this problem of the door locking me inside the vehicle and i cannot get out. I was told by my service advisor that this is very common and can be repaired but it will cost. I did not get it fix because i do not think that i should pay to correct a defect in the software that is a safety hazard. The door should open when you place the car in park and turn the engine off if the door lock is not on. It should always open when you try to get out of the vehicle.

Exploding sunroof. Sunroof was in the full open position when it just suddenly exploded. It sounded like a gun going off in the car. Glass shards went flying down on me. One shard went into my hand. I was on an entrance ramp to the interstate on a sunny day when it happened. Speed was approximately 55mph.

I purchased my vehicle as a cpo vehicle with 4 brand new eagle f1 asymmetric 2 tires.within months all 4 tires developed bubbles that tore open via an initial bubble or they tore open without warning.all 4 were replaced and less than 8 months later another one developed a tear so long that i could not even drive it as a run flat.i had to have the car towed.these tires are defective as well as totally unsafe and i want my money back.all 5 went flat and my car notified me of it.some while driving, some just after i started the car and had not even driven it anywhere.i drive only 6 miles to work on side streets, no highway = about 8,000 total miles per year or less.this should not happen and, no, i did not hit a pot hole or a curb or anything else to cause 5 tires to rupture!!every one split at the same spot on the tires... See picture for example. Dot ne32jh1r4016, dot nejajd1r4817, dot ne32jh1r2215, dot nejajd1r4817, and dot me32jh1r4217.five tires in less than one year is not normal and i want the men to stop insinuating it is my driving because i assure you it is not my fault.
