2015 BMW 428I Unknown Or Other Problems

The contact owns a 2015 BMW 428I. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V608000 (Engine and Engine Cooling, Electrical System); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Parking brake cable retainer clip that extends above the driveshaft all the way to the rear wheels has broken and now cable scrapes against drive shaft causing a loud unpleasant concerning grinding noise when accelerating. The dealer were I service my vehicle is aware of issue, the part is a very inexpensive part, ranging from $12 to $50 depending ware you purchase but the dealer wants to charge $900 dollars to replace. This repair should be placed on the recall list due to the difficulty in replacing the clip, due to possibly having to remove the gas tank and drive shaft to get to the clip.

I finance my car in 2016, the car was purchased at a third-party dealership, it only one previous owner. My car has two major recalls, BMW never notified me that there were any recalls and I never got any compensation such as fixing the car. Long story I lost my car in a car fire last year. My car was completely totaled and the car caught wire out of nowhere. I put an investigation through BMW of North America but they weren’t helpful and they compensate me for all the damages and losses that I lost due to the fire in my car. I just saw a new recall for more than 900,000 cars and I wanted to make sure that A- every recalls was served or down my car and B- if there’s a new recall related to my car fire I’m entitled to repairs monetary damages since I lost my car.

Drivers side rear control arm snapped in half (sheered cut). The aluminum solid piece broke in half, this is to knowledge an oem original part that was not replaced. Resulted in suspension and alignment issue, uneven tread wear on all four tires (excessive wear on short amount of time causing me to replace all tires).

Rear backup camera stopped working when backing car up. Also rear tailgate electric hatchopening stopped working along with lights. Dealer troubleshot problems and couldn’t determine failure cause but stated real tail gate control module needed replacement. Picked up car from dealer and the problems resolved themselves! Been working for several weeks so far but seems this might be an intermittent problem. Contacted BMWUSA to ask for Good Will repair but was denied due to mileage being outside base warranty. This is a potential crash hazard.

I was driving on the highway with no cars around me and my sunroof exploded outward.

The door locks have become ‘sticky’. This means that when pulling on the interior door release handle, the lock is moving to a stuck position that is not permitting egress. While the solution of pushing the central unlock button is currently viable, it would not work in a total electrical failure, or a situation of a vehicle submersion in water. This is a dangerous situation, potentially leading to passenger entrapment if the motors or lock mechanism fail. A manual unlock MUST be possible, but as this vehicle has aged, has become problematic. I experience this most on days with significant temperature swings, and will note that I experienced the exact same problem in my 2005 BMW 3 series, which was reported and repaired at cost to me, Basic passenger safety should not require this repair or cost. The mechanism in question is flawed and deserves investigation.

CAR HAS A FUTURE THEY CALLING CONNECT BMW. THAT FUTURE IS NOT WORKING ON MY CAR. I CAN'T OPEN OR CLOSE , OR USE VENTILATION OR ANY FUTURE IS NOT USEABLE ON APP. I PAID FOR ALL FUTURES AND DIDN'T WORKING I TOOK THE 2 DIFFERENT BMW SERVICES AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S MANUFACTURE PROBLEM YOU HAVE TO CONTACT WITH BMW GENIUS DEPARTMENT.

THE CONDENSOR FREEZES AND NO AIR COMES OUT OF THE VENTS. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF SELECT DIFFERENT VENTS OR TEMPERATURES. I BOUGHT MY CAR AT THE END OF FEBRUARY 2019 AND IT HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES. WHEN I LOOK ONLINE IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I CALLED BMW NORTH AMERICAN THREE TIMES. THE SECOND TIME A MANAGER TOLD ME SEVERAL UNTRUTHS TO GET ME OFF OF THE PHONE. TODAY WHEN I TOLD TO SOMEONE, I FOUND OUT THAT I WAS LIED TO. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN. I HAD TO CONSTANTLY PUT MY WINDOWS DOWN DURING A DOWN POUR TO KEEP THE WINDOWS CLEAN. IT IS NOW SPRING DURING THE HOTTER TEMPERATURE IT IS GOING TO BE NO BETTER. IT FROZE ON A DAY THAT IT WAS IN THE 80'S. THE CAR WOULD NOT COOL DOWN. THE FAN WAS BLOWING ON HIGH AND THE PASSENGER'S DASHBOARD WAS EXTREMELY HOT. IT FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS GOING TO CATCH ON FIRE ON TOP OF THE CAR NOT COOLING OFF.
