When driving last week, we heard heavy clunking sounds. We took the car to a mechanic to investigate the noise, and he identified the the frame sway bar mount had sheered off where the sway bar to frame mount is. The mechanic asked if the car had been in an accident. We bought it used in 2012, and there was no report of an accident. Since we have had it, we haven't had an accident either.

Left side of the center dash trim continues to pop off. Occurs every 4 months at $40 a repair. Repaired 3 times; once under warranty and twice out of warranty. The trim pops out on its own, however the BMW dealership continues to state that excessive force is causing the problem. That is not the case. This is not a characteristic to expect on this class of vehicle. An owner should not expect to maintain the dash trim.
