RECALL 17V-676: BLOWER MOTOR WIRING was preformed several years ago. Today the wiring connection added during the recall work failed and the blower motor stopped working.

The engine stalled multiple times driving on the highway. When I turn off the car and turn on the car, it would go back to normal. I researched this is a problem for 335d, I think im experiencing the same problem, not sure why 335i is not included in the recall list. This happened multiple times for me and I ignored it at that time, other person has also experienced the same issue when he was driving my car. Now the electrical battery power is completely shut off and there is no recall, this really bothers me.

THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE HEADLIGHTS TENDS TO ROT OVERTIME IN THESE CARS WHICH THEN LEADS TO BARE COPPER WIRES MAKING CONTACT WITH EACH OTHER AND ENDS UP CAUSING A SHORT AND BLOWING THE BULB. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, NOT ONLY FOR VISIBILITY BUT FOR FIRE PREVENTION AS WELL. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN A LOT OF BMW'S AND IT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. THIS ISN'T SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS VERY CHALLENGING TO DO SO. I TOOK A LOOK AT THIS AS MY HEADLIGHT BULB BLEW LAST WEEK WHILE ON THE ROAD. LIKE I HAD MENTIONED EARLIER, THIS IS PRETTY COMMON AND IS EVEN OCCURRING IN THEIR NEWER MODELS. THE INSULATION OVER THE WIRING JUST FLAKES OFF AND THE DEALERSHIPS SHOW NO CARE WHEN THE ISSUE IS BROUGHT UP.
