OUR 2004, BMW X-5 DOOR JAMMED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE CONTACTED BMW, BUT THEY DENIED ANY PROBLEMS CONCERNING DOORS JAMMING. HOWEVER, I CONDUCTED AN INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND NUMEROUS POSTINGS DISCUSSING THE DOOR JAMMING. I ADVISED BMW THAT I FEEL LIKE MY FAMILIES SAFETY IS AT RISK DUE TO THE DOOR FAILURE. I ASKED THEM TO PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY RISK AND COULD PUT MY FAMILY AT RISK. THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE THAT I HAVE TO TRANSPORT MY FAMILY, DUE TO MY HUSBAND BEING ACTIVATED WITH THE MILITARY. BMW DENIED ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR. NONE OF THE PASSENGER DOORS CAN BE OPENED WITH A MANUAL KEY OR A MANUAL RELEASE. NONE OF THE DEVICES ON THE VEHICLE WILL OPEN THE PASSENGER DOOR. NOTHING WORKS. WE CAN'T REMOVE THE PANEL, BECAUSE WE CAN'T OPEN THE DOOR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY RISK AND I FEAR THAT MY FAMILY AND NUMEROUS OTHER FAMILIES LIVES ARE AT RISK DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I AM REQUESTING IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE AND AN INVESTIGATION REGARDING THE BMW DOOR FAILURE. THE PROBLEM STARTED, WITH A DELAY IN THE DOOR UNLOCKING UPON PRESSING THE BUTTONS TO OPEN THE DOOR. THEN, IT JUST STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. I TRIED TO GET AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE LOCAL BMW DEALERSHIP, BUT IT WOULD BE WEEKS BEFORE I COULD GET ASSISTANCE. AND I HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT THIS EXPENSE WILL COME OUT OF MY POCKET, B/C IT'S NOT LISTED AS A RECALL OR SAFETY HAZARD. HOW CAN A DOOR FAILURE NOT BE A SAFETY HAZARD? *TR
