Can you sue BMWNA for delivering faulty vehicle? I mean you have paid top bucks for a car that they have committed to deliver and failed.
I gave my car on last Saturday for Frontal Collision Issue and haven't heard back from them yet. I got very basic X1 as a loaner while my brand new car sitting in their shelter. how sad? You should demand some compensation for the problems caused. after all, its not your fault. |

Sorry to hear that. On my 2006 X5 I had so many electrical problems that the service advisor at the dealer was embarrassed. The car had all sorts of electrical problems and they even paid me 1 month worth of my leasing. One day I got a call that my car was ready. The BMW engineer was at the dealer and they had figure out what was wrong. Went there and the service advisor went to pick the car up to deliver to me. He stopped the car in front of me and tried to open the door to leave. He was locked inside. There was no way he could unlock the doors. How is that for being embarrassed? I went back to my loaner and let them figure out how to get the guy out. It was close to the end of my lease so I was happy that I was going to get the new model.

There's no way that they can claim *that* didn't happen unless you can recreate it with a center employee ;p |

Feeling sorry, what is that park brake limited warning. THat is a whole new issue? My car is built this week and am getting really worried with all of this. I do not know if it is the forum presence, but seem more common problems then "usual" for entry models. I remember years ago (more than a decade ago actually) when the new 7 (1st Bangle 7) came out there were tons of issues with the car. These systems (pedestrian warning, etc.) are already in use for some time in the 5 and 6 series (the least) and work just fine. I do not understand why it is a problem here. Anyways, if you have some info on the park brake thing I would be grateful.

Well, I decided to turn around and drive back home as the weather is getting much worse and the car has absolutely zero traction on the Summer rubber. Driving 5MPH I am slipping and sliding.
Spoke to Jim, the service manager at Open Road BMW of Edison and he seems like a super nice guy based on initial impression, and is willing to go out of his way to have my SAV picked up tomorrow, though since I am so anal and don't trust people driving my X5 I will bring it back myself tomorrow AM. Here is a video of what I a had to deal with on my drive and Yes another issue came up just now.... To the 3 issues I had.. 1 The Turn Signal not turning off 2 Frontal Collision Warning Malfunction 3 pedestrian Warning Limited I now have 4 Parking Brake Limited 5 Panorama View Check Camera lens (this one could be due to the snow...but who really knows) Maybe I should have just for the Cayenne - so far absolutely zero issues with my 991 911 . Let's see how BMW takes care of this / hopefully this will not be my last Bimmer... |

Don't know who's upset about it. I'm not, and I don't think Kief was either. So who's the troll again? Back to what people actually care about, I'm sorry for your continuing problems, dencoop. Hope they get worked out soon. Make sure they at least give you a more suitable loaner this time. |

Not that my problems are anywhere compared to dencoop's; but I hear a rattle in the tailgate while driving when the car is still cold. Anyone noticed this? I believe this was adressed in one of the threads but cannot find it.
Another thing; this morning got a warning saying that the blind spot assist was disabled since the radar sensors in rear bumpers were blocked? I checked and did not see any blockage. It did snow here this morning and I am not sure if some errant slush got lodged on the sensor. Anyone else experience this?

Aren't points 2, 3 and 5 due to the weather conditions ?
With everything white and snow falling, the radar at the front of the car will not work anymore, and any software interpretation from the front camera will be unsuccessful. The manual states that: The system may not be fully functional or may not be available in the following situations: ▷ In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐ fall. ▷ In tight curves. ▷ If the camera view field or the front wind‐ shield are dirty or covered. ▷ When driving toward bright lights. ▷ Up to 10 seconds after the start of the en‐ gine, via the Start/Stop knob. ▷ During calibration of the camera immedi‐ ately after vehicle shipment. |

Crazy. We all feel your pain.
Is there ANY good news? How about that B & O Audio system? Does it sound sweet enough to help limit your agony? Last edited by tiburonh; 12-10-2013 at 05:24 PM.. |
