Read complaints for BMW 540I (2017)


Backup camera is blacking out. Very dangerous. There was a recall for 2018-19 bmw's but not for 2017 bmws. Forums also report a lot of problems with this reverse camera.

"refill coolant" indicator displays even with full reservoirs. Two trips to the dealer so far, for repairs. Comes on when driving or when parked, after driving; after opening driver door. For example, drive one day. Parked over night. Message displays next day when driver door is opened. Goes away again after a drive, without adding any fluid. Same exact issue as others are experiencing here:https://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1526216&page=1

I had dropped off the vehicle for swapping out my winter tires for all season tires. Their technicians removed the rear seat belt latches and installed them incorrectly. This work was neither approved by me or mentioned on the work order. I was also not verbally informed of this work being performed. This work was clearly not tested or completed properly by their technicians.it caused the rear seat belts to not latch into place correctly and i was unable to install my child's car seat to the car securely. The work was performed by bmw of springfield nj. Had i not tried installing my car seat, i would not have been aware of this issue and there is a possibility that anyone sitting in the rear right or middle seat would not be secure during a crash.

The contact owns a 2017 bmw 540i. While driving 55 mph, the contact depressed the accelerator pedal and the vehicle began to jerk without warning. When the vehicle was pulled over, turned off, and restarted, it resumed normal operation. Also, when the vehicle was on any inclined hill or road, the brakes engaged. The vehicle was taken to princeton bmw (3630 quakerbridge rd, hamilton township, nj 08619, (609) 528-4198) to be diagnosed, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired; however, the dealer replaced the windshield to repair the brake sensors and informed the contact that the brake sensors were located in the windshield. The failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. An investigation was performed, but no failures were found. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
