Complaint

SUSPENSION:REAR
WHILE DRIVING ON A SMOOTH ROAD, THE REAR WHEELS LOCKED UP - WITHOUT ANY WARNING. CAR CAME TO A SUDDEN UNEXPECTED HALT - ON IT'S OWN. THIS SITUATION WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE RESULTED IN INJURY/DEATH, HAD IT OCCURED ON A HIGHWAY OR OTHER HEAVILY TRAVELED ROAD. DEALER ADVISES THAT THE SUSPENSION RIPPED CLEAR OFF THE FRAME OF THE CAR. VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEABLE. HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH BMW, BUT THEY SAY IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY - DESPITE THIS BEING A 'CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED BMW'. CAR IS JUST SITTING AT HUNTERDON BMW IN LEBANON,NJ.
