TIRES
AUTOMOBILE WAS PURCHASED IN MAY 2011, AND I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY GOODYEAR P245/40R19 RUN FLAT TIRES SIX (6) TIMES. I HAVE EXPERIENCED 4 SIDEWALL BLOWOUTS, SOME ON INTERSTATE SOME ON REGULAR ROADS. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE TWO TIRES DUE TO SIDEWALL BUBBLES, DUE TO TIRE SIDEWALL BREAKDOWN. THIS AUTOMOBILE IS NOT SAFE AT ANY SPEED AND I HAVE HAD TO USE MY 2012 FORD FOCUS FOR MOST OF MY DRIVING. BMW HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN REGARD TO THIS PROBLEM AND I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THESE TIRES HAVE A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING NEAR HOME ON A RAINY DAY ON 10/18/2012 WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES AT A ROAD CURVE, THE BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND AND I HIT A SIDEWALK, DAMAGING THE REAR BUMPER ON ITS RIGHT HAND SIDE (PASSENGER'S SIDE). I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR BRAKE FAILURES ON MY 2006 BMW 550I AND FOUND A RECALL ID #87954, RELATED TO A "COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER ASSIST BRAKING, OR UNEXPECTED REDUCTION OR LOSS IN POWER BRAKING ASSIST...". WHEN I CALLED BMW NUMBER SHOWING IN THE RECALL NOTICE, THEY TOLD ME MY CAR VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE FACTORY RECALL. A TOTAL OF POTENTIAL UNITS AFFECTED IN THE RECALL WAS 198,352, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED ! I'M REQUESTING NHTSA TO REVIEW THIS CASE AND EXTEND THIS RECALL TO ADDITIONAL VIN NUMBERS, INCLUDING MINE TO GET POWER ASSIST BRAKING SYSTEM REPAIRED ON MY VEHICLE FREE OF CHARGE. ALSO, THIS SHOULD PREVENT CRASH ACCIDENTS ON THIS MODEL CAR. *TR
