Example complaints

Electrical system: “When making a right turn, and turning speed, our new cars braking system activated, locked the brakes, and steering wheel, causing the vehicle to slide into oncoming traffic. The cars safety system overrode the driver, now allowing me to maneuver away from on coming traffic until the vehicle came to a complete stop. I believe the reason it did this, is the cars safety system thought it was about to be in a head on collision being fed wrong AI to the cars computers and cameras. The vehicle had less than 300 miles at the time of the incident.”

NHTSA complaint #11627561, filed 2024-11

Brakes: “I have been waiting for this car for well over a month now. I do not know what is causing the delay in receiving this part so that I may pick up the car. I will be without a car in 3 weeks time when my current lease is up with my 2022 Hyudai Tucson which has broken down an needed to be towed 3 x in 6 weeks for a fuel injector problem. I placed a deposit on the Mini Cooper Countryman in the first week of August expecting to pick up the car that week. Why can't any of the BMWs and Mini Coopers complete these needed repairs instead of halting/delaying sales?”

NHTSA complaint #11614439, filed 2024-09

Forward collision avoidance: “Aug 8, 2025, I was stopped in a parking lot, I decided to roll forward, when I took my foot off the break, the car jumped 5-6 ft forward. I immediately slamed on the break to stop it from moving. The car hit with a low speed impact a pole like thing with concrete around it. The speed didn't even register on the speedometer. My car shows no damage, I have photos. However, my car immediately flashed the Yellow warning Restraint system. along with RED highlighting both the seatbelts and airbags. I called Mini USA as instructed. Mini USA said That warning should go away a few hours after calling. …”

NHTSA complaint #11679496, filed 2025-08

Other or unknown: “I was driving my 2025 MINI JCW on a partly cloudy day 42degrees Fahrenheit. I was diving between 35 and 40 mph when the sunroof exploded. There weren't other vehicles nearby, and I didnt hear any rock hit, it just exploded.”
