Example complaints

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

“Transmission skipped, especially when coming to a stop...it was diagnosed and repaired by replacing the mechatronics in the vehicle. Now, it has occurred again, and they claim now that it is the failure of the door opening system, installed by Bmw, that's causing the battery to leak , therefore causing the transmission to malfunction..I don't understand the connection between the two items, and if so this could be extremely dangerous to myself and family. …”
