X5M up in flames
Featured on

UPDATE
Yesterday the investigation happened. Apparently the dealer did not tighten down the Negative or grounding wire to the battery after its last service leaving a gap. This caused the battery to arc and start the fire... No defect on the car itself but rather SEVERE error at the dealership...
As for myself I am still having breathing issues and am going to a pulmonary specialist to resolve the issues.
Well I don't post here much. But wanted to let everyone know my 2016 X5M w/18k miles caught on fire this morning. Fire department said it started from the rear taillight.
Crazy thing is I was stuck in the car cause it shut off and wouldn't let me out. Luckily after what seemed like an hour I was able to power it up a and unlock the doors. Wouldn't let me out of the freaking car otherwise... I will post photos later. Won't let me from my phone.
