Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Hard to start, cranks for a while till it builds up pressure then starts. Idles rough and sometimes dies when sitting at stop light, and sputtering power at time when taking off, also when it stalls while driving it is a total loss of power for steering and other controls, very dangerous when it happens. I understand this is a fuel pump problem. Car has 2 fuel pumps. Very very costly repair at the dealer. Dealer should replace at their cost.”
NHTSA complaint #10811856, filed 2015-12, 65,000 miles“As a consumer and also reading about other consumers having issues with the high pressure fuel pumps, the oem part which Bmw is charging to fix this problem is over $6,000. The parts are only for the 2006 760I and they seems to be going out on a lot of people. Some consumers were lucky to have it go out during their warranty but some have to deal with this type of expense after wards. If this part seems to go out on a lot of 760I models in Bmw there should be a recall out their to fix them. …”
