Backing out of my garage to a street with a 25 mph speed limit, the vehicle is supposed to alert the driver with a warning sound and or brake if a vehicle is crossing behind the vehicle.this feature has never worked and the dealer can't find any problem.this condition has been report on several internet websites with no resolution.
Navigation display and right side of instrument panel go blank intermittently and then reset and come back on after about 10 seconds. Display goes off during periods of driving and or stationary with vehicle engine running. Occurs during times at highway speeds and city driving.
My samsung galaxy s9 phone seems incompatible with my x5. About every 30 minutes the nav display and half the instrument panel black out for about 10 seconds then restarts. This occurs on the highway and in the city.
The auto-dimming feature of the digital instrument panel on 2020 bmw x5 models is poorly implemented, and under variable lighting conditions (cloudy, snowy, sunrise, sunset), it dims at inappropriate times, such as when driving toward the sun at sunrise or sunset.this makes the display extremely difficult to read and unsafe.the auto-dimming feature for the instrument panel is only appropriate under night-driving conditions.
My vehicle has not been involved in any accidents as a function of this design flaw.the following occurs when vehicle is in motion or stationary:during daytime driving, when headlights are not turned on, the digital instrument panel and digital control panel dim undesirably, making them difficult to read and creating unsafe driving conditions.this is undesirable behavior is most prevalent on cloudy days and at sunrise and sunset.the dimming needs to be inactive if headlights are off.if headlights are on, it needs to be inactive if bright light is detected through windshield (sunrise, sunset) -or- if bright light is detected inside the cabin.
Automatic braking system.traveling about 50 mph the automatic brake activated, there was nothing even close to my vehicle, my passenger's head was jerked forward. I had the vehicle in for computer problems about two weeks ago, concerning the radio and dash board displays, not knowing about the automatic braking problem at that time, ( this is the second incident involving the automatic brake, first time i didn't think too much about it since i had just purchased the vehicle i thought maybe a new car bug ). I was told that there was no fix for the problems i took it in for , and that germany was notified and they had no solution, when a fix was found i would be notified. Now i'm now realizing more is affected by the faulty computer system then i first thought. My main concern is getting rear ended on the highway which i travel quite often. This incident occurred saturday evening, today i'm contacting the dealership, we will see what happens with a more serious problem.

Air conditioning quit working on day 2 of ownership.dealer says the compressor needs to be replaced and there is a lead time between 2 weeks and 2 months.after purchasing a car that cost about $125,000 and driving it one time, it had to be sent to the shop.since it is so hot where i live, driving the car is out of the question.bmw did give me a loaner car, but the value of the loaner is about 45% of the car i purchased.
