In November 2017, I received 2 recall notices from bwm (17V-683 and 17V-676). As of last week, they are still saying that no remedy for these defects are available. After almost 1 complete year, that is absolutely ridiculous! these are safety hazards and should have been solved long ago!

I took my BMW to South motors BMW was due to the 3 recalls cause by the manufactures defect. The last recall was risk of engine completely stalling(stopping) while driving which happen to me while driving on a city street with children in the car. We met with a BMW service advisor and he said that South motors BMW service more than 100 BMW since last year and they are only fixing the BMW's as a courtesy. He than stated he had to order a couple of parts for the recall, to give him a couple of days. He called the very next day and said the parts were in and advise that he have to charge a fee because his technician have to get paid. He gave us a price of more than $3,000 and said this is nothing, we charge the last customer for her BMW $12,000 we are giving you a good price. It gets worse they kept my BMW for another 5 days, smash the front of my BMW. The manager stated he is not sure who smash the front of my BMW, he said about 7 workers were driving my car while it was being service for the recalls. I was in tears, he looked at me and said it's just a car.

This vehicle was subject to two recalls pertaining to the blower motor wiring and PCV valve heater. The vehicle started to smoke and was taken to the dealer on January 8, 2018. The actual notice of recall was sent out to owners, prior to that. It is now April 12, 2018 and I have heard nothing regarding the repairs to this problems. The dealer to which I took the vehicle said, only "we have no idea - it could be months". this is unacceptable, and I am wondering what my remedies might be. I now have an inoperable vehicle, utilizing a parking space that I pay for and, although BMW is paying for a rental car, it is not a BMW. Thank you for your assistance.

Over the course of three days, while driving my 2010 BMW 328I on a highway at a rate of speed of 65-70 mph, the motor stalled, shut off, died, lost power causing me to have to get to the breakdown lane by forward momentum alone. Very dangerous because the other cars on the road have no idea that my car has no power. After sitting for approximately 15 minutes, I tried starting the car and it started right up and I was able to drive it as though nothing was wrong with it. I called my BMW dealer and am bringing it there tomorrow. He said that the repairs may be covered and that they would know better after looking at the fuel pump because there may be an issue with it. The car only has died while traveling on an interstate highway at a higher rate of speed. Extremely dangerous.

I was notifiied by snail mail of two recalls (17V-676: Blower motor wiring and 17V: PCV valve heater) last November 2017 and, as of today, they have no remedies... both defects can cause fires so it seems serious. My vehicle is currently running fine but it is in the back of my mind and keeping me from taking the car on an extended trip. Is there anything you can do to hurry BMW along or provide a status?

- Minnetonka, MN, USA

We are waiting for BMW to get the parts to fix the recall announced in October of 2017. Today after calling BMW customer relations a representative named nick, #6971, said that parts might be available early summer. Mind you in December they said next month. Give us all a break. Cal them and tell them to get it in gear as the recall clearly states the cars my go on fire. They are working us all over. You need to call their executive team and tell them it needs to be done asap. Please take some action on this irresponsible car company. At least call them!!!

BMW on fire. I had been driving on a city street for about 15 minutes when the engine caught on fire. I was stopped at a traffic light when I noticed smoke so it may have started while in transit. My car had no issues, no complaints about the car, engine or driving experience. At the time of the fire there were no warnings on the dashboard, no smell of fire or burning oil, no signs of engine issues while driving but while stopped at a red traffic light I noticed smoke coming from around the driver's front tire area and it escalated quickly. I was stopped waiting at a second-to-the-left turn lane surrounded by cars and nobody could move away. People in the car to my left panicked the most as they could see the smoke going their way and couldn't move their car, fortunately the light turned green soon and I was still able to drive to an empty parking lot of a fast food restaurant across from the traffic light. I parked, turned off the engine and when I opened the hood the engine was in flames. Management of the fast food restaurant rushed with a fire extinguisher but it was too late regardless. The next morning the car was towed to a BMW dealership where it was declared total loss by the insurance company before BMW even finished estimating the damage. Nobody investigated further eventhough I asked if they would given that my car seemed in perfect condition. BMW stated it was a rare instance however when I researched about it I found blogs of lots of more cases like mine. The insurance said it looked like an electrical fire. I would have purchased another BMW if anyone had cared enough to provide answers or at least follow up. I bought my BMW in 2014 certified pre-owned at the BMW dealership in a beautiful and perfect condition. I'm just glad I was able to stop, that the only property damage was my car and more importantly that nobody got hurt.

Today while driving with my family to the airport on the highway my 2010 BMW 328I suddenly shut off. I didn't realize the engine had died so I kept going until the car got dangerously slow. Then I had to pull over 4 lane to the right and miraculously without any incident. I tried restarting but it wouldn't and I had to get it towed to the dealer. This was a dangerous situaltion and I am worried about giving this car back to my wife who is the primary driver. I purchased this car for safety reasons and that confidence is badly damaged.
