| 2003 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | I HAVE A NEW BMW 3.0 X5 WITH 3,500 MILES AND HAD MY VEHICLE DIE AND REQUIRING TOWING TO THE DEALER WITH A CRANK CASE VALVE FREEZE UP DRAINING OIL ALL THRU THE ENGINE AND REQUIRING A NON ORIGINAL DESIGNED REPLACEMENT VALVE THAT NO SERICE TECH FEELS WITH BE RELIABLE BELOW 10 DEGREES ABOVE ZERO. I LIVE IN MINNESOTA AND THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A NEW VEHICLE IN THIS WEATHER. NOW MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER RELIABLE AND IT PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THIS COULD HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR ANY WHERE. NO GUARANTEES OF IT NOT HAPPENING AGAIN. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALER NEW ONLY FIVE MONTHS AGO. *AK |
| 2002 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES | I OWN THE 2002 BMW X2. I HAVE RUN INTO THE PROBLEM OF THE REAR PASSENGER (RIGHT-SIDE) DOOR UNLOCK. IT CANNOT BE UNLOCKED BOTH FROM THE OUTSIDE AND INSIDE OF THE DOOR. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE WEB SITES. THERE IS NOT A WAY TO OPEN THE DOOR. DEALER HAS TO UNBOLT THE WHOLE DOOR IN ORDER TO GET IT OUT. THE SAME PROBLEM CAN OCCUR TO ANY OF THE DOORS (OR ALL) AT THE SAME TIME. MOST PEOPLE (INCLUDING MYSELF) ARE HAVING CONCERN ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS/DRIVERS IF THE DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE IN THE CASE OF EMERGENCY (SUCH AS THE LEXUS' ACCELERATION PROBLEM OR FIRE/SMOKE) ESPECIALLY THE KIDS CANNOT BREAK THE WINDOW'S GLASS. CAN THE NHTSA ASK BMW BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING CORRECTIVE ACTION ASAP? OR BMW WILL WAIT TO TAKE ACTION AFTER ENOUGH PEOPLE DIE FROM THE BAD DESIGN. I HAVE NOT FIXED MY DOOR (SINCE BMW WILL CHARGE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS). AND I HAVE A 3 1/2 YEARS OLD KID. I THINK THAT BMW NEEDS TO RECALL THIS NEGLECTED PROBLEM. *TR |
