2014 BMW 320I Complaints

RECENTLY PURCHASED VEHICLE. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK, HAD ISSUES WITH BOTH HEADLIGHTS AND ONE BRAKE LIGHT. I REPLACED ALL THE BULBS. ABOUT ANOTHER WEEK LATER, HEADLIGHTS WORK BUT NOTIFICATIONS POP UP SAYING FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT HEADLAMP MALFUNCTION. REAR RIGHT BRAKE LAMP AFTER REPLACING BULB HOWEVER IS MALFUNCTIONING ONLY AFTER CHANGING IT OUT 1-2 WEEKS EARLIER.

HEADLAMP MALFUNCTION SHOWS UP ON DASH TO INCLUDE CRUISE CONTROL MALFUNCTION , REAR VIEW CAMERA MALFUNCTION, BRAKE LIGHT AND LIGHTS EITHER TURN ON OR FLICKER

TAKATA RECALL MY LIGHTS ARE MALFUNCTIONING THEY TURN OFF WHEN DRIVING SIGNALING OR BRAKING

I GOT MY 2014 BMW 320I XDRIVE 10 MONTHS AGO, LOVE THE CAR! BUT SINCE I'VE HAD IT, THIS HAS HAPPENED LIKE 5 TIMES NOW, WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF WITH THE FIRST PUSH OF THE BUTTON EVERYTHING SHUTS OFF INCLUDING ELECTRICAL WHICH ISN'T SUPPOSE TO SHUT OFF UNTIL THE 2ND PUSH OF THE BUTTON. SO BASICALLY NOTHING WILL WORK ON IT AT ALL UNTIL IT WANTS TO WORK ON ITS OWN. IT LEFT ME AND MY KIDS STRANDED ONE TIME CAUSE LITERALLY NOTHING WOULD TURN ON. NO ELECTRONICS WORK, CAN'T ACCESS TRUNK CAUSE IT'S ELECTRIC. AND TODAY I WANTED TO GO RUN AN ERRAND BUT COULDN'T CAUSE NOTHING WOULD TURN ON. NOTHING WRONG WITH THE KEY FOBS AT ALL AND ALSO TESTED THE BATTERY WHICH IS GOOD. JUST TO DIAGNOSE HERE AT THE BMW DEALERSHIP IS $131. I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY RIGHT NOW JUST TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. I WAS HOPING FOR ASSISTANCE BEING THIS IS A MANUFACTURER ERROR AT SOME POINT WITHIN THE SYSTEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 36,000 MILES ON IT FOR BEING ALMOST 5 YEARS OLD NOW. ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I DID BUY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WITH THE CAR. DEDUCTIBLE IS $300 AND THE REST IS COVERED WITH THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT AT. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 BMW 320I. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND LOST POWER. IN ADDITION, THE LOW FUEL PRESSURE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

RECEIVED A WARNING LIGHT AND ACCOMPANYING ERROR MESSAGE STATING I HAD A MALFUNCTIONING PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM. VEHICLE WAS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED PURCHASE, 2ND OWNER. AS VEHICLE WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AND PREPAID MAINTENANCE PROGRAM, WE TOOK IT IN FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. SERVICE ADVISOR INFORMED US THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT DETECTION MAT WAS TO BLAME AND IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AS THE CONNECTION POINTS APPEARED CORRODED. WHEN I INQUIRED AS TO HOW THEY BECAME CORRODED, I WAS INFORMED THAT SOMEONE MUST HAVE SPILLED SODA ON THEM...UNDER THE LEATHER, THROUGH THE FOAM PAD IN A VEHICLE THAT WE DO NOT ALLOW ANY FLUIDS IN, LET ALONE SODA. AFTER HITTING A WALL IN AN ATTEMPT TO HAVE THIS COST COVERED, I WAS GIVEN 10% OFF THE COST OF REPAIR AND BEGRUDGINGLY COVERED THE REPAIR COST AT AN OUT THE DOOR TOTAL OF $1132.76. THIS WAS AN ISSUE IN THE PREVIOUS GEN 3 SERIES AND JUST LAST WEEK I RECEIVED A WARRANTY EXTENSION COVERING THIS TYPE OF REPAIR ON MY 2007 BMW M5. IT APPEARS TO BE A PERVASIVE ISSUE WITH THIS CARS BUT AS YET NO RESOLUTION IN REGARDS TO REPAIR RESPONSIBILITY FALLING TO THE MANUFACTURER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION IN REGARD TO THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 BMW 320I. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V189000 (FUEL SYSTEM GASOLINE) AND 15V520000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. BMW OF MINNETONKA (15802 WAYZATA BLVD, WAYZATA, MN 55391, (952) 236-1263) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR HAS BEEN GIVING ME ISSUES FOR THE LAST ONE YEAR. THE DOOR GETS UNLOCKED, BUT WHEN I PULL THE HANDLE TO OPEN THE DOOR, THE DORR DOES NOT OPEN UP. I HAVE BEEN LOCKED OUT OF THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR FOR SERVICE TO THE BMW DEALERSHIPS. THE FIRST TIME, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD FIXED THE ISSUE, BUT THE SAME ISSUE REOCCURRED IN A WEEK. THIS TIME, I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE ISSUE. IN A FEW MONTHS, THE ISSUE HAS AGAIN SURFACED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE ALREADY BEEN LOCKED OUT OF THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES AND HAD TO SEEK ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO OPEN THE DOOR.

"TAKATA RECALL" I RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT MY BMW THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT. I WENT TO WEBSITE: WWW.AUTOAIRBAGSETTLEMENT.COM & CALLED 888-737-5596. WHEN I ENTERED THE VIN# OF MY VEHICLEON THAT SITE IT READ: THIS VIN HAS BEEN MATCHED WITH AN ELIGIBLE SUBJECT VEHICLE. SO I CALLED THE 888# AND THEY SAID MY VEHICLE WAS NOT RECALLED YET. I AM CONFUSED AND NEED TO KNOW IF MY CAR CONTAINS A FAULTY TAKATA AIR BAG. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW. I AM CONCERNED SINCE MY SON IN COLLEGE DRIVES THE CAR IN ANOTHER CITY THAN I LIVE IN.

AFTER DRIVING VEHICLE I RETURNED HOME AND TURNED OF CAR MY FRIEND TRIED TO OPEN HIS FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN. I TRIED ALL WAY TO UNLOCK DOOR. MY CONCERN IS IF I HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND A FIRE OR OTHER REASON AND TRIED TO OPEN THAT DOOR IN AN EMERGENCY IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A PROBLEM.
