“June 9, 2003 dear Bmw, I bought a brand new 2003 Bmw 325CI on november 8, 2002 from assael Bmw dealer in monrovia, california. After a month of owning it, the car started experiencing problems. When I was at a stoplight or stop sign and had my foot on the brake pedal, the car/engine would sputter, and it?s an automatic transmission! This really frightened me because I had no idea what was causing this erratic behavior. A new car is not supposed to have problems like that. …”
