Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“While driving to the store my husband notice the vehicle began to over heat. After only driving less than 2 miles the vehicle was parked at my home, it suddenly burst into flames from the engine an hour later. Gratefully, no one was in the vehicle during the incident. We are a family of 5 so that would have been a disgrace. The vehicle was inspected by BMW who claim they can not find cause and deny responsibility. It is unfortunate, our insurance canceled for non-payment a short time before this. Therefore, we have no resource to make us whole again. …”
