Car engine caught on fire while driving today and stopped. No smoke or other issues prior. Worried this is related to the recall issued by BMW recently, however my car is not covered under the recall yet. The car is currently located in Vancouver Canada. It was purchased in Tulsa,

While driving on the Grand Central Plwy, Queens, NY, a drive train motification came on and stated to drive moderately, right after the oil light came on. We were near a gas station, and added a quart of oil. The oil light went out, the car started without hesitation. We decided to go home, we got off the highway about a mile out, the car just stopped went into park and could not start again. It would crank over, but not connect. We were on a four lane road, luckily there was no one behind us, it could have been a terrible incident. The car was towed to a BMW dealership in Great Neck, NY and we were told it was either the engine or the timing chain and it was not worth fixing. The car was then towed to my mechanic, who stated there was a technical warning #N20 & N26 regarding the timing issue. Hoping something can be done

Car begin to stall on traffic, drivetrain malfunction light appeared..Took it to BMW DEALER My Fuel Pump replace with new EKP module- Which is the same recall that BMW issued in 2017 which included the Model/year vehicle that i have.

- Oak Park , MI, USA

The vehicle lost power, while in motion, in the middle of the road after accelerating. The car gave an error code of drivetrain malfunction. My car lost power in the middle of a busy city street, and it could have easily led to a terrible accident. Possibly related to NHTSA campaign number: 16V746000 but my car was not included in the recall.

I bought a certified BMW and had continuous issues with my engine, constantly refilling the oil, even after service. After taking this to the dealer, I was told that everything was fine and there weren't any issues. All of this finally came to a head-on Sunday, 6/21/2020 when my car finally came to an abrupt stop. After towing, I was told that this is a timing chain issue and would cost me $7,400 which wouldn't necessarily remedy the issue, I heard this could reach towards 15-20K. I find this hard to believe after having only driven this car on avg 8K/year and having roughly 84K miles in total. My experience with BMW has since been painful to say the least since. I've had this towed twice in 2 days, been given an ultimatum on either fixing the vehicle or buying a new one - when asking for a loaner, I was told that I needed contact enterprise and reserve one on my own. I've owned multiple german cars and never had to deal with this level of unprofessionalism.

I was driving on the freeway and my car suddenly stopped running and shut down on me mid freeway! I stepped on gas pedal and nothing! it turned off on me and wouldn't turn on! now it turns but gas won't work! I believe there is a problem with the gas pump of something regarding gas fuel! I had to call my car insurance to tow my car when I became stranded on the freeway.

I was merging onto a highway from another highway when all of sudden the car decelerated out if nowhere and a error message displayed on my dashboard fuel system error/ drivetrain malfunction engine speed will be reduced. The car acted as though I had absolutely no power as I coasted to a safe place off the highway.

- Kennesaw, GA, USA

My vehicle just killed as I was driving it. I got an fuel system error code as well as a drivetrain malfunction error when accelerating. Although there was a recall on 2012 528I fuel pump that was deemed to be the culprit of this problem, BMW is saying my car wasn't a part of the recall.

- Hammond, LA, USA

Was driving doing 30 mph on a no traffic city street..and the car started shaking then the engine light came on. Put the scanner and code P0087 is what it read

- Schenectady, NY, USA

Drivetrain malfunction light came on and now the car takes a long time to get up to any decent speed. Probably 0-35 in about 10 seconds. I was advised by a service center that timing chain failure is imminent and I would need to pay $8000 to replace the motor on a car for which I owed $11000, that at the time was only worth about $4000. As of today, it's worth about $800 with a $3800 balance on the note. Overpriced scheduled maintenance and costly repairs were all performed as they should have been.

While driving down the 95 highway my car showed a fuel supply error then powered down and stoped and wouldn't restart. I had it towed to a hotel and the following morning it started while the tow truck loaded it to take to the dealer. I had a full tank of gas at the time. I could have been killed with my kids. Towed it to BMW and all they told me was to replace my battery even though I had a perfectly good battery and the and everything requiring a battery worked like radio, lights etc. I bought a new battery from them and the tech drove the car for 30 miles. Within 2 hours after leaving the dealership my car did the same thing while exiting the highway and slowing down at a stop light. A diagram flashes on the console and then a message about the fuel supply. I was assisted by calling 911 to get my kids and I to safety and my car out the way. There is a recall on the fuel module or pump for my year and make but BMW claims my VIN is not included. This is dangerous, people can get killed if the cars are stalling while in motion.
