I drove across town to my parents house and when i got there i turned the car completely off and locked it. I visited with them for roughly 30 minutes before i had to leave again. I was approaching my car and clicked the unlock button on my key fob. Once the car unlocked i noticed smoke coming from the engine. I unlocked to hood to release pressure and quickly ran to grab a fire extinguisher. When i came back to the car with a fire extinguisher i noticed flames shooting out the bottom of the car. I put those flames out but after two minutes my car was completely engulfed by flames. The fire department finally arrived to the scene and put the fire out. By the time the fire was completely put out my car was completely destroyed. My parents house took quite a bit of damage as well from the flames shooting out of my car.

I was driving 2010 bmw 528xi on highway @speed of 65 mph and electric supply disconnected in the car and i lost the control. I could not control speed and brakes. It was a serious threat to my life. Fortunately, i let car go and it stopped by itself on shoulder. I called to bmw customer service but they mentioned that bmw cannot help in this case and just noted the comments. I think this is a serious problem in bmw 5 series and would like to know if any of you experienced same issue.

On 11/17/17 i received a phone call from my wife who had a horrifying experience driving our bmw. She was driving on a busy 3 lane highway when without any warning the eccentric shaft sensor failed creating a very loud scary shrill noise, not unlike a siren. At the same time the enginerpm began surging causing the brakes to lose their effectiveness giving a feeling for the driver of lack of control of the vehicle and the fear of hitting another vehicle. I speak with experience because i met my wife at a shopping center and switched cars with her, and carefully driving the damaged car home.unfortunately, because of the very expensive repair, 2500 dollars, preventive maintenance is not a good option.

Approximately one month ago my entire set of right rear lights went out on my car. I called the dealership and they said it was not covered under warranty. I took to aaa and they couldn't figure out what was wrong but got lights working, they thought just loose wires.a week or so ago stopped working again.took back to aaa and they said it had to be the whole board for lights and to take to dealer.i then read online that there is a recall for my year/model of car for rear tail lights.now my left taillight is entirely not working.my vin is not included in recall so i have to pay for this which i don't think is right as clearly this is a larger issue. Please help.

The insulation covering the wires going to the daytime running lamps (angel eyes) bulbs has split and caused a short or an arc which has visibly burned and melted the plastic connector to the bulb and caused the light to malfunction and produce warnings inside the car. This seems like a dangerous situation. Even more so because power continues to flow through the wires as evidenced by the fact that jiggling the wires sometimes makes the bulb light up.
