“After I diagnosed a parasitic battery draw when the car has been off overnight. I found the auxillary water pump for the intercoolers still running drawing 5 amps when the car is off. This is the same exact issue I found with the recall 18v-248 I'm quite lucky my car didn't catch on fire yet.”
NHTSA complaint #11110158, filed 2018-07, 110,000 miles“I purchased this car in june of 2019. I received a carfax report before the purchase. The car was very clean inside and outside. I was pleased with th car until it started smoking every time the engine got warm. I had to keep adding oil almost every two to three days. Every time I stopped, for traffic , red light or started from a stop position blue smoke would come from exhaust and there is a horrible smell of burnt oil and antifreeze. …”
NHTSA complaint #11375480, filed 2020-11, 119,126 miles“I was driving a Bmw 750LI 2010 on the freeway 70mph. Without warning, the engine stopped and the entire electrical system went off. I steered the car quickly to the shoulder. I only had enough momentum to pull my car to the side of the road. All systems were non responsive . I was unable to place the car in neutral for the tow truck. I was unable to call for assistance via the vehicles call system. I would have to assume that all the systems active safety equipment were useless since I had no power.”
NHTSA complaint #10509299, filed 2013-04, 44,000 miles“At 57,000 miles, my 2010 Bmw 750LI needed 6 out of 8 fuel injectors replaced. The fuel injectors for the n63 engine platform have been redesigned multiple times due to a high rate of part failure. The parts were poorly designed, and are failing prematurely on vehicles. Bmw refuses to acknowledge the faulty fuel injectors and should properly issue a recall.”
NHTSA complaint #10668937, filed 2014-12, 57,000 miles“Just had a new factory engine put in my 2010 Bmw 750LI under a class action lawsuit, in august 2019. December 2019 wife was driving car to grocery store and engine suddenly started bucking and smell of gas was overwhelming. She was in traffic at the time and could not maintain proper speed on the 50mph highway and lost total power. She nursed car into a nearby parking lot. It was snowing out and had to wait for a tow truck for an hour in freezing temperatures. …”
