Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Front side passenger window regulator stopped working and the cable snapped while stopped at a red light causing the window to fall down into the door. Window will no longer roll up and I'm forced to put a garbage bag to cover the open window which is a safety hazard when driving. I no longer have visibility on my right hand side when driving.”
NHTSA complaint #11265470, filed 2019-10, 57,400 miles“Mid-mounted Dash/Display Screen has Delaminated, rendering “rear backup camera display” unusable. Delaminating has progressed over time, rendering screen virtually unusable. Since the camera display is unusable, there is immediate danger that the driver might not see an object immediately behind the vehicle, such as a child, and back into/over, causing injury or death. Note: while watching a YouTube video of ANOTHER BMW vehicle, the same phenomenon, mid-mounted (a BMW i8) display delaminated, was shown, meaning this is NOT unique to my vehicle.”
