The contact owns a 2013 bmw x5 sav. The contact received a recall notification for nhtsa campaign number: 16v071000 (air bags) and stated that the part needed was unavailable to perform the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Takata recall - takata recall continues to go unresolved.vehicle in question in primary means of transportation for my spouse and nine-year old son.bmw shared this week only due to my contact them that the airbag for this vehicle would be available in one month.i have no faith and am seeking injunction by nhtsa to resolve this delinquent resolution immediately.
N63 engine failure and battery charging problems.engine blows massive amounts of white smoke from rear tailpipes and battery indicator states low charge.this is a known defect to bmw as thousands have complained but bmw is attempting to weasel there way out of this by not releasing a recall.
Running on the highway received high engine temp warning orange. It quickly went to red and read on dash to pull over. The vehicle lost much power and stepping on accelerator would not let it go faster. I had to move to the right on the highway while some vehicle sped through to the right of me while trying to pull over.45,000 miles and water pump had failed when i took it to a shop.
Engine stalled while vehicle at complete stop, with air conditioning on.the vehicle had been driven at various speeds for several miles and parked, then restarted when the incident occurred.
Oil leak from the valve cover gasket gets into the hot manifold causing a burning oil smell and smoke getting into the cabin through the ac vents causing a major safety issue.

When parking the vehicle the parking brake symbol went yellow and it showed a message stating it was malfunctioning and the vehicle may roll. This car has an electrically actuated parking brake.since the car moved fine without any noise and it gave no indication otherwise it seemed safe to continue driving. Some time later it starter making a screeching noise from the rear right. After stopping at a truck stop the brakes were found excessively hot in addition to making noise.after being towed to a shop it was revealed the parking brake had partially activated, dragged the shoes until they were worn down, made metal to metal contact with the rotor hat and created enough heat to melt all associated hardware on both sides.under slightly different circumstances it is not unlikely that one or both rear wheels could have locked up while driving leading to loss of control and an accident.the error message associated with failure of this module is highly misleading, since it seems with the failure of this module the vehicle has no way of knowing whether the parking brake is engaged or not.
The parking break switch leaver broke. The design and construction of the plastic switch leaver is very thin (flimsy), therefore, it is impossible for it not to break under repeated normal use. This results in the parking brake becoming inoperative. Please see upload photo.
Vehicle was stopped and in park. Passenger was in front seat. Driver locked vehicle prematurely while outside. Passenger was unable to exit vehicle.attempted to unlock vehicle with key fob but would not respond. Passenger pushed lock/unlock buttons in vehicle with no response. Driver reentered vehicle to try to help. Unable to help and driver's door would not open. Opened window and had to use key to unlock drivers door. Rolled down window on passenger door and after pulling up on manual lock and pulling handle multiple times the door finally opened freeing passenger. All doors on vehicle were locked and unable to open from inside or outside.only drivers door was able to open with key. Door latch assembly front right with actuator motor failure causing central locking system fuse to blow. Repair invoice attached.
Voice activated navigation and communications do not work and are a driver distraction due do to a system that does not work. System is is supposed to be a hands free operation to enable drivers not to be distracted while driving and placinga phone call or directions. This occurs while the vehicle in is in motion.
