This Problem Across All Years
- Roof and pillars I have been having for almost a year when trying to open and slide on the track. It is harsh and noisy. - Engine oil filter housing and coolant leak. This issue is critical. Finally on April 10, 2025 I ended spending $1007.52 to get the housing replaced to stop the ongoing drip drip effect. - Steering gear box. This issue remains despite the fact that I replaced struts. For almost a year since I bought the vehicle, there appears to be a clunking type noise especially when going over rail tracks on the road where I am forced to almost come to a complete stop to let the car go over the tracks out of fear of sustaining damage.

Every time I start or stop my vehicle I get a notification that shows Transmission: Secure vehicle with parking brake when stopped. Consult service center. And my console has a hazard warning that shows: Secure vehicle against rolling. This happens every time, even if the car is parked on a completely flat surface in no danger whatsoever of rolling. I've read SEVERAL X1 owners get this message and all state this needs to be a RECALL. They take their vehicles in for service and are told it's between $2500 and $3000 due to a tiny spring that breaks and the selector no longer communicates with the car in the parking position, and because of this there is an error message in dashboard in which warns you to make sure the vehicle is secure

WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR HESITATES TO ACCELERATE. THERE IS A TWO - THREE SECOND DELAY AFTER YOU STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR. THIS HAS RESULTED IN ALMOST BEING HIT BROADSIDE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CAR LITERALLY DRIFTS FOR A FEW SECONDS BEFORE RESPONDING. WAY SCARY AND VERY DANGEROUS. AFRAID TO CROSS LANES WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE FUEL SAVING AUTO/ON/OFF HAS ALWAYS BEEN DISENGAGED WHEN THIS OCCURS. NOT USING SPORT OR ECO SETTING EITHER. VERY UNSAFE CAR. PROBLEM HAS EXISTED OVER THE PAST 14 MONTHS SINCE PURCHASED NEW.

OTHERS ON BIMMERFEST IN THE USA ARE ALSO STATING THEY ARE HAVING A SIMILAR PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AT A PRICE OF OVER $40K.
