Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My car doors intermittently won't open, potentially trapping me in my under-warranty car. This happens about once a week across any of the four doors and has been happening for about 12 months. I have taken the car to Bmw multiple times under warranty without repair. Others have reported the same problem in their bmws. Bottom line: Bmw refuses to repair under warranty any intermittent car issue, even if it's a safety issue. This is even in light of video evidence demonstrating the problem, unless they can make it happen in their shop. …”

My car had been at a complete stop. No airbags went off causing me to suffer serious head injuries and scull fractures. In addition, upon impact, my car burst into flames. …”
NHTSA complaint #10810625, filed 2015-12, 36,000 miles“Several times, when the vehicle was in park and stationary, the door latch failed to unlock the door. The latch was pulled repeatedly but the lock didn't unlock and the door couldn't be opened. The door lock was unlocked using the button on the instrument panel. This happened several times, most recently monday, and it was taken for service at Bmw roanoke but they were unable to diagnose the problem or recreate it when they tested the vehicle. I have an iphone video of what is going on if you want to view it.”
