Only had this vehicle for 6 months. On the way to the MINIof san diego dealership to get an oil change, the car shuts down as I stopped at a red light. I was still in motion and on the street. I was coming off the highway. I tried restarting the car. I was in the middle of the street. There were overheating lights and smoke a couple of days before so discontinued driving the vehicle until my appointment with MINIof san diego. The day of the appointment, there was no indication light of overheating. The dealership was only 15 mins away from my home. I also found that the model of my vehicle was recalled for the same reasons that my car is currently in the shop for currently. MINIof san diego is telling me there's no recall on my car based off the VIN number. But based off the years and model, my car fits into the recall.

4 faulty ignition coils within 3 months: Cylinders #1 & # 2 had to be replaced on 4/7/17 cylinders #3 & #4 on 7/4/17. First incident occurred when I was pulling into oncoming traffic and resulted in complete loss of engine power. The second incident happened on the highway while changing lanes, again complete loss of engine power and nearly caused me to be hit by a semi-truck. I narrowly escaped an accident in first incident as well. I do not feel safe driving my children in this car any longer. Each time the parts and labor cost more than $300, not to mention the aggravation of being without a car for work and family transportation for several days. This is not what I expected from a quality automobile made by BMW. Documentation/invoices can be provided upon request.

My vehicle was parked in my garage for approximately one hour, after driving it for three miles in the rain. The engine spontaneously caught on fire.
