While driving in the rain, the MK60 ABS/dsc unit failed leaving me without stability control and antilock brakes. Very unsafe.

The ABS light came on few months ago on my 2002 BMW 325I. Took the car to the dealership, was told that this is a "common problem" with these cars, and that the ABS/dsc module will need to be replaced (with a re-manufactured part), at a cost of $1,700. Also I have had to replace all 4 window regulators in the last few years. Again a very common problem with these cars. I am the original owner of this car that has 90,000 miles on it, and has always been garaged and maintained properly. Looking at how common these problems are, it is obvious that these parts are defective. Therefor BMW should reimburse owners for replacing the defective parts.

02/19/2014 on a dry day, while driving in the center lane on I-4 around lakeland-fl, with 70mph a fedex vehicle's right rear tire blew off in front of me. I hit the brakes to avoid collision. ABS did not work and my brakes locked, my car has started spinning (3-4 times). My car went from the middle lane to the left lane then to the most right lane and off the road. Luckily I did not hit any other vehicles or the metal/concrete barriers while spinning out of the road.after the incident, while driving I have noticed a limping at slow speed and high vibration at higher speeds. All 4 tires were damaged. 3 warning lights appeared on the dashboard: Dsc + ABS + brake(red color). On 02/22 I took my vehicle to my mechanic.all 4 tires were found were because of the braking.the diagnostics tool read: 5df5 - control unit internal failure.I needed 4 new tires and my tires had 9/32 thread depth and were almost new. On Sunday - 02/23/2014 - I took in my vehicle for the tires. The tire shop declined to replace the tires under warranty because they were damaged by braking.they were nice enough to give me a discount and replaced the tires for $350. Teves dsc MK60 has been a problem not only in bmws but other brands such as VW and Audi. Just google it.if you are lucky the issue surfaces itself while the vehicle is under warrantyif not, the ABS pump unit is over $2300+labor and dsc module is over $1100+labor.I already spent $500 for the tires and brake flush. I have to pay one of the above prices to get my ABS fixed.I did not have any warning lights before my ABS (if dsc does not work ABS does not work) failed.the lights came on for a few days and now they are not on this is very dangerous and needs to be investigated by NHTSA and fixed by BMW usa with a recall. I could have killed myself or hurt/kill other innocent people on that highway.ABS/dsc are very important safety components.
