Our vehicle has the airbag light on and i am am very concerned with the safety of our family. After researching this issue, there are many mini owners that are having the same problem which leads me to believe that this is deeper than an isolated issue on my vehicle. I also found out that this has been an issues that was converted into a recall for several years before.mini should considered doing an investigation and extending the recall to other year models including my 2012.

I love my mini cooper s. But there is a issue. Today i started up the car and it starts smoking. Twice this has happened in two weeks. When i bought it 2 years ago i noticed on the inside of my hood of the car it's a black burnt mark. The dealership said the problem had been fixed. Last week i took it to a oil shop and they said my turbo is burning my car and would catch fire soon. I'm in the process of getting a new turbo but this is a big problem cause now it's smoking only when in idle or started up.but the hood is super hot after a short drive. I hope your crew can look into this part and save someone the terror of a car on fire. Thank you for your time.
While moving in traffic and accelerating, the fuel pump cut out and the engine died, forcing the driver to maneuver in traffic (coasting) eventually coming to stop in a left hand turn lane which was then blocked with the dead vehicle. Though the vehicle was undamaged, the possibility of a collision existed.research indicates that minis from 2010-early 2012 had similar problems, resulting in mini usa extending the warranty on the fuel pump to 10 years/ 120,000 miles. Vehicles produced on or after 3/1/2012 (including mine) were fitted with different equipment.no recall was conducted.my car had 25,000 miles on it when the fuel pump failed.
Thermostat housing began to leak, the part is plastic and had become cracked under normal wear.
