BMW illegally stopped updating my car which relies totally on it’s OS system in its iDrive. You used to be able to download them to a usb stick. 1 year newer cars can remotely still download the updates. This is dangerous and needs to be addressed. It is also biased and runs my entire car. The download should still be available for free. There was a technical report but BMW doesn’t honor that.

I am writing to formally report a serious and dangerous safety defect affecting my 2015 BMW X3, which I believe warrants immediate investigation and a recall. Description of the Defect: On multiple occasions, while driving in rainy or wet road conditions, my BMW X3 has suddenly and forcefully reduced speed without any brake pedal input from the driver. The vehicle appears to apply braking on its own, causing abrupt deceleration. This behavior occurs: On wet roads only, while driving straight at steady speed without warning lights or alerts, without driver input and at speeds that pose a high risk of rear-end collision. The sudden and unexpected braking has created an imminent danger to myself, my passengers, and surrounding vehicles, particularly on highways where traffic flow is fast and close. Uncommanded braking under normal driving conditions is a critical safety failure. A driver has no reasonable opportunity to anticipate or correct this behavior, and it places the vehicle at

Our vehicle alerted us to over heating and to pull over immediately. Our car then stopped running. We had it towed and was told there was an issue with the water pump sensor and corrosion issues. They alerted us that there was a recall for these issues on our vehicle. We researched and found this to be true. When I contacted BMW they stated our vin number was not part of the recall but our vehicle match the exact models listed in the recall. We took it to the dealership and they repaired it for $2500 and the reason for the repair was the exact reason for the recall. Spoke with BMW again regarding this and they said if our vin was not on the recall list there was nothing they could do. I would think when your vehicle make and model matches the recall and the issues are the same you would be part of the recall no matter the vin number. I would like for this to be reviewed and see if we can get a reimbursement from bmw for the charges we paid out of pocket for an issue that should have b

High pressure fuel pump Stalling almost caused an accident Yes the problem has been confirmed by BMW BMW has inspected the component Check engine light and drivetrain errors BMW replaced a high pressure fuel pump and fuel system in 2019, see attachment. I was not notifies of the 2021 BMW recall for the high pressure fuel pump. The high pressure fuel pump fail in 2025, see attachment at around 60,000 on the replaced high pressure fuel pump in 2019, less than the original fuel pump. BMW now says they are not going to repair this because of the age and mileage on the car. My position is the mileage on the car is irrelevant. It’s the mileage on the fuel system replaced in 2019. In addition, I was not notified of the recall in 2021and now the question is “ is the high pressure fuel pump replaced in 2019 the same fuel pump replacement part that came with the car when new? Obliviously the 2021 recall may have upgraded the fuel pump to satisfy the recall. If so, that should have be

My from passenger seatbelt will always beep even when no one is sitting in it and the back middle seat has the wrong seatbelt installed and isn’t correct for use, so I am not able to ever use it, I don’t even know how that’s even possible that it’s an incorrect one installed but it won’t click into place at al!!!!! It’s jot safe of I have three passengers in the back. It was on recall for certain models and mine was not included but it’s clearly a safety issue!!!

Engine over heating alert issued and to pull over immediately. We had car towed to bmw dealership who stated it is water pump issue. This is a known issue for this make and model but recall not in effect for our vin. We are having the same issues as stated in recall for water pumps and temperature control issues. Just because our vin number is not associated with this recall they will not repair this issue unless we pay out of pocket. This is a known issue for our make and model of car and should be a covered expense by bmw. I have attached a link to the recall issues. Please review and respond accordingly. Thank you!

I received a recall notice from BMW in October 2024 for Recall 24V-608 involving a water pump electrical connector defect in my vehicle. According to the notice, this defect may cause liquid to drip onto the water pump’s electrical connector, potentially leading to a short circuit and, in rare cases, a fire. As of June 2025, nearly eight months later, there is still no remedy available. I have contacted BMW, and although they acknowledge the risk, they have not offered a loaner vehicle or any alternative despite the known fire hazard. I am concerned for my safety and do not feel comfortable continuing to drive a vehicle with a known, unresolved safety defect. I am submitting this complaint because I believe this delay is unreasonable and puts drivers at risk. The vehicle is currently operational, but the issue has not been fixed or properly addressed.

Vehicle was driving when it stalled while driving. The vehicle would not start after that. After having a mechanic look at the vehicle it was found the high pressure fuel pump failed causing extensive damage to the fuel system and a repair quote of $15,000. Even though vehicles manufacturered in the same model year had a recall for this issue my vin number did not receive the recall. The recall number for the recall I'm referencing is 21V586000. BMW denies any recall for my vehicle and will not cover repairs.
