The "stop and go" cruise control has disengaged over 100 times and has slammed on the brakes for no reason 5 times. I have almost been rear ended twice on the highway. This is not safe. I have shown BMW over 50 photos and 3 videos of this and they find every excuse in the book. I am scared for my life when using this cruise control. BMW also refuses to take the car back.

When electric range is out, the engine kicks in and speed immediately drop to 50+mph on the freeway climbing up a hill the first day I bought the car which scares me and I have to stay on the left lane and quickly exit. I just read the lawsuit which is exactly what happen to me too.
