July 19, 2024Service Brakes

I have contacted the BMW dealership in Henderson several times about the recall and they do not have a fix from the BMW. I contacted BMW about the issue and filed a complaint with them to offer a solution of replacing the vehicle or return the vehicle for a buyout. I reported the problem to BMW on May 20, 2024 and the manufacture is not informing me of any update or responding to my request. The BMW i7 is unsafe to drive and on three occasions I have almost been involved in an accident because the vehicle is taking longer to stop and I have to firmly press on the brakes in order to stop the car. I would like BMW to offer a solution to repurchase the vehicle as I have significant safety conce

June 22, 2024Service BrakesForward Collision Avoidance

Brand new car bought in Nov 2023. On February 12, 2024, this Recall Campaign No. 24V-104: Integrated Brake (IB) Module came out - albeit with no remedy. It is now Jun 22nd - 4 months later - and there is still no remedy. I am adversely affected in the following ways: - I have been unable to drive the defective vehicle for over 4 months now - I have been unable to purchase the vehicle out of the lease as they won't provide a payoff-quote with an open recall - I am unable to re-sell the vehicle with the open recall. 4 months is an unacceptable time to remedy (and it may be a lot longer, or never) - as by the time the recall came out, I had only owned the car for less than 3 months. As of today

February 28, 2024Power TrainElectrical System

The car warning flashes “drivetrain fault”. Then after about 5 seconds the car put itself into neutral and started to slow down. I pulled off to the side of the highway before it stopped on its own . I was not able to start the car back up. I got it towed to the dealership . I am told that the AC compressor failure to the high voltage battery system , shut down the system . Seems very dangerous to do that while I was driving on the highway !
