Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“We were driving on a local road and saw the car ahead parked at the traffic light. We began to brake from a safe distance. The car began slowing but instead of coming to a full stop, the brake resisted, the car made an odd sound, and instead the car accelerated into the car in front of us. The Tesla in front captured the odd behavior of the vehicle on camera. BMW will perform diagnostics.”

“On 8/7/2025, I pulled into my driveway very slowly, I didn’t have my foot on gas as I just went to our dumpster, and pressed the brake, I through the car was off, and went to exit, instead the car suddenly accelerated i tried to break, but the car didn’t stop and smashed into my garage. It is at the dealership, Wesley chapel BMW, they sent me a message that it won’t be ready today because there is recall and an issue but they have not told me what it is. I was researching and i saw what’s called “sudden unintended acceleration.””
