2025 BMW X5 Brakes Problems

“It has now been a year since i picked up my 2025 X5, and I STILL have not been able to get it repaired. My dealer informed me that there is still no remedy for me car. It has now been a year of me owning the car and driving around with a recall on my brakes. This is ridiculous. Not no mention the fact that when i picked up this car, there was already a recall on them that my dealer did not make me aware of. BMW sold me a car with a brake recall and still hasn’t fixed it after a year.”

“Driving home on a two lane road that is joined by a side road at a 45degree angle. A woman ran the stop sign and suddenly appeared on my road right in front about 40-50 feet away. The BMW did not show any visual or audible warning and the forward collision mitigation system functioned in a substandard way not mitigating the crash into the woman’s drivers door. Damages amounted to 25.8k to my vehicle and took 48 days to repair at my local BMW dealer in Albany NY. BMW states to me that the system worked properly. …”

“I was driving my 2025 BMW X5 sDrive40i at approximately 60 mph when the vehicle in front of me stopped abruptly. I immediately applied the brake pedal firmly in an attempt to make an emergency stop.

The vehicle did not skid, I did not feel the tires sliding, and I did not observe skid marks. …”

“While attempting to park forward into a handicapped parking space, the car lurched forward approximately 4 feet instead of braking/stopping. The braking system appeared to fail and the electrical/sensors/ADAS warnings did not engage. The vehicle drove over a cement parking block and struck a building shrub, signage and hvac unit.”

“The contact owns a 2025 BMW X5. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, there was a loud screeching sound detected. While reversing there was a noticeable loud screeching sound heard. While making a turn, there was an abnormal knocking sound detected. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V104000 (Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was working as designed. …”
