“Hard to start, idles rough and sometimes dies when sitting at stop light. When taking off, it stalled while driving and lost total power for steering and other controls, very dangerous. We were lucky that we were not on the freeway. I know Bmw has had problems with the high pressure fuel pumps. My car has 130000 miles and after spending over $4000 at the local Bmw for the same issue, now they want an extra $6000 for the hpfp. My car is sitting at their shops, not safe to drive and they refuse to fix it. Is there a recall or anything they can be done? Thank you.”
NHTSA complaint #10870909, filed 2016-05, 130,000 miles“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. Bmw states it is the high pressure fuel pump and the part is $2,700 + 1300 labor. This is the flagship car for Bmw. Please recall and replace both pumps before someone gets killed.”
