problem #1

528 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 57,500 miles
I have had failures of the braking system on my 1999 BMW where the system locks up and causes the car to go out of control. Based on numerous conversations with other owners these models seem very prone to this problem. BMW does not seem to care very much about addressing this.
