Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle speedometer malfunctioned and records a speed 20 MPH below actual speed. This LED to both a safety risk due to excessive speed and an inability to accurately comply with the speed limit. Excessive speed is the #1 cause of motorcycle accidents. I nearly experience an accident due to inaccurate speedometer reading on a curvy road. I called Bmw and complained about this safety risk”
