"takata recall" bmw sent me a notice of recall: driver's front air bag module in march 2016, however, until now 10/20/2016, the local dealer never call me to replace the front air bag.another problem: i smell gas coming out from the fuel tank when parking in the garage, however, i can not find any leak from the gas tank. I feel my bmw x5 v8 2009 may be caught in fire if i drove long distance and the car heated up.
The grounding wire in the connector to the tail light bulb holder melted and melted parts of the connector. This resulted in no signal, brake and running rear lights. A recall has been called for bmw e46 3 series for this exact problem (see below). The recall should be expanded to cover the 5 series as well.
Currently have a 2009 bmw 550i.vehicle has had an ongoing and unidentifiable electrical issue causing the vehicle to often and without initial notice "loose power" and go into a "safety mode" operating at a reduced power by not going above 30mph and/or 3000rpm's.vehicle with often start "bogging" and "shuttering(shaking)" and will often attempt to "surge" forward while sitting in traffic often trying to cause a rear end accident with the vehicle infront. The driver of the bmw often has to "stand" on the brakes in order to prevent the vehicle surges from allowing the vehicle to shot forward at stops.issues started in january of 2011, took it to fairfax bmw where they determined the vehicle had some sort of electrical issue with the battery. No fix was provided in the shop for 3 days. Issues persisted through january and took it to bmw of alexandria where they replaced a transmission solenoid and a intake sensor, in the shop for roughly 7 days.electrical issue reappeared in march in with the same problems. Vehicle was in the shop for over 7 days and had the entire vehicle wiring harness replaced. Vehicle issue resurfaced several weeks later and a engineer from nj came down and determined a faulty oil sensor was causing the vehicle to often ?think? it was out of oil vehicle was in the shop for 7 days. Vehicle potentially was flooded with oil from service tech's adding more oil each time the vehicle "thought" it was out of oil. Vehicle as of 5-21-2011 suffered again from the same issue and was dropped back off at bmw of alexandria with vehicle engine light identifying ?engine malfunction?. Sent several emails to bmw corporate with little response.
Driving on a posted speed limit road of 30mph when we see this message on our screen "engine malfunction power reduced".
The vehicle stalled while i was driving on the freeway. The stall is related to the camshaft sensor not properly working and the fuel system not working properly. I have a 2009 bmw 528i.in april 2014 bmw did a recall related to the camshaft for 2010 - 2014 528 bmw's. I contacted my local dealer and the national bmw dealer to let them know i was having the same problem with my 2009 and to see if they were going to expand the recall to include the 2009 models. They told me no at this time they didn't have any information regarding expanding the recall. I also let them know that i had another problem with the car that could be related to the camshaft. The car's fuel system was leaking.the gas was not properly going to the engine and it was flowing back into the car and the exhaust. You could smell gas in the car and see puddles of gas when they lifted the back seat of the car. The mechanic told me i was driving a bomb. I paid $450 to have that repaired. Bmw needs to expand the recall to include the 2009 cars.

On september 10, 2016 i purchased this car and i have been experiencing stalling and jerking violently and i was told it was bad gas from dealership i purchased it from. I went to bmw in october 2015 i was told it was fuel injectors i was told no recall on the car at that time. In march 2016 the car stopped on me and my visually impaired grandson without warning on the freeway. I took the car to conrad and was told it was the fuel pump so i took the carto different bmw service center now i am told it the fuel pump but not the one under warranty. Both service centers refuse to replace fuel pump that is under extended warranty which is the prime problem. I told them the fuel pump is under extended warranty. They name other stuff instead of replacing the problem the car is a safety hazard. Bmw is not sticking to keeping their cars safe. I believe is acting in a discriminatoryway and want more money out of greed. Please see attached documents
