The contact stated that, to her knowledge, there were no injuries. The contact added that she did not have notice of a police report or that medical attention was needed at this time. The vehicle was towed to a body shop where it was deemed a total loss. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

While driving in heavy highway traffic at approximately 5–10 mph, the vehicle suddenly displayed a red warning message and symbol in the driver’s gauge cluster indicating the car was shutting down. About 15–20 seconds later, propulsion was completely lost, although power steering and braking remained available. I attempted to change gears and restart the car by turning it on and off, but nothing worked. I activated the hazard lights since the car was stopped in traffic and posed a danger to surrounding vehicles. Because the vehicle would not respond, I opened and closed the driver’s door and then attempted to restart. At that point, the vehicle restarted, and I was able to continue driving. Out of caution, I remained in the slow lane for the rest of the trip home in case the problem occurred again. The incident created a serious safety risk in the middle of highway traffic. The failure matches the description in BMW’s recent recall (25V395) involving electric drive motor so

Make extreme high fan noise during and after super fast charging sessions (Electrify America), overheating issues, unlike all other Evs that do not. Constant clunking sound during and after departing from sessions. Periodic banging sound when parked. Sounds can be observed inside and outside of vehicle. Signs of defect and overheating, safety concerns not addressed by purchasing dealer and manufacture BMW NA. I have video recordings of the issue, and have taking it to two separate BMW dealers no resolution and can not have my kids in the car due to safety concerns.

While reversing my 2024 BMW i5, the main infotainment display repeatedly blacks out for 3–5 seconds, eliminating the rear-view camera image. The blackout occurs without warning, roughly once every 25-30 reverse maneuvers, leaving zero rearward visibility and forcing hard braking to avoid pedestrians and fixed objects. Component/system: Central Information Display / rear-view camera feed (BMW head unit). The original head unit was replaced by the dealer on 07/15/2025 after BMW opened TSARA case 4211001. The removed head unit is in the dealer’s possession and the vehicle is available for inspection. Safety risk: Loss of the only rear-vision aid on this vehicle during backing makes collision with people or property likely. I have had to stop abruptly multiple times to avoid hitting pedestrians in parking lots. Dealer/manufacturer involvement: • First visit: 03/2025 — dealer “unable to replicate,” no repair performed. • Second visit: 07/09–07/15/2025 — dealer replaced

During a red light stop, car took off with a massive acceleration after release of breaks and hit the car standing in front of it, causing a significant damage to the front of the car. None of the accident prevention systems, emergency breaks were triggered or activated. Car is equipped with accident record system for 30 seconds before and after an impact, nothing was recorded. Manufacturer promised to investigate but has been more than a week but no one arrived to the collision center yet.

I was driving east bound on [XXX] near the [XXX] exit and using the fully automated driving (where I am watching the road to take over if necessary but the vehicle was maintaining speed and steering) I received the following errors: (I symbol error) Reduced driver assistance, (triangle error) Forward Collision Mitigation, (triangle error) Assisted Driving, (I symbol) Lane Change Assistant. Directly after receiving these errors the steering wheel was stuck at center and required an extreme amount of effort to turn the wheel in any direction. At first I thought it was because the automated system was still engaged but I tried to turn it off and nothing happened. At this point I am getting a little scared as the vehicle is responding to my pedal input but the steering wheel will not release properly. I tried calling the BMW Assist people and they told me to call roadside assistance which would not have helped in my opinion so I told them I didn't want to be transferred over there. I

I am writing to formally address concerns regarding the recall on my vehicle and its impact on my ownership experience. 1.Recall Disclosure: According to your records, the recall on my vehicle was issued on 2/12/24. However, I purchased (or leased) the vehicle on 7/21/24 from an authorized dealership. At the time of sale, I was not informed of any open recall, nor was it disclosed by the dealership. According to them, there was no stop sale issued for the vehicle. If I had been made aware of the recall, it could have influenced my decision to proceed with the purchase/lease. 2.Ongoing Impact: This unresolved recall has significantly affected my ability to transfer the lease to a qualified individual, creating financial difficulties. Despite nearly a year since the recall’s issue date, my vehicle has not exhibited any signs or warnings related to the recall. This lack of resolution is now directly impacting my personal finances. Requested Resolution: I kindly request the following: â
