2011 BMW 335D Complaints

STEERING WHEELS IS SUCK WANT TURNING IN MY DRIVEWAY STEERING WHEELS LOCK UP CAN GETTING TURNING WHAT CAN WE DO

WHILE COMING TO A STOP IN A PARKING LOT THE STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT AND THE SMELL OF BURNING RUBBER WAS PRESENT. HAD THE CAR BEEN GOING A HIGH RATE OF SPEED IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS.

2011 BMW 335D. CONSUMER WRITES WITH REGARD TO RECALL CAMPAIGN NO. 18V-314: POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM, AND INQUIRES WHEN REPAIRS WILL BE DONE. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME COMPLETING THE RECALL REPAIR. *JS

THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO STAHL AND NOW THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE HIGH/LOW FUEL PUMPS AND INJECTORS WHICH COST MORE THAN THE VEHICLE. I AM STUCK MAKING PAYMENTS THIS CAR IS JUNK AND THE CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED...... EVERY MONTH I HAVE A PROBLEM SINCE OCTOBER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 12 TIMES. THE INJECTORS, FUEL PUMP I WAS TOLD THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, INJECTORS AND NOW FUEL PUMP

THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP EVERY WEEK I HAVE HAD IT TOWED 12 TIMES SINCE MAY. I TOOK IT IN FOR THE RECALL (ELECTRICAL ISSUED RECENTLY) THE VEHICLE RAN GREAT, NOW THE DEALERSHIP SAYS I NEED 3 NEW INJECTORS. THE INJECTORS ARE BAD. I AM READING REVIEWS AND OTHERS STATED THEIR BMW'S NEED NEW INJECTORS. SO IS THEIR A RECALL FOR INJECTORS I DID NOT SEE? THE CAR STAHLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.

INTERMITTENT FAULT ON PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM AFFECTING PASSENGER AIRBAG AND BELT TENSIONER. MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL FOR EARLIER E90 MODELS WITH THE SPORT SEATS. FIRST FAULT OCCURRED WITH APPROXIMATELY 118,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAS HAPPENED OCCASIONALLY FOR THE LAST 10,000 MILES. FAULT CODE 0093C3

WHILST DRIVING VEHICLE, BATTERY WARNING LIGHT, BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER STEERING, AND WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. AFTER VISIT TO DEALERSHIP, APPEARS THAT HARMONIC BALANCER WAS COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF, IN TURN, TAKING OUT VARIOUS BELTS, INCLUDING THE BELTS THAT POWER A/C AND MOST IMPORTANTLY POWER STEERING. BMW ALREADY REPLACED THESE BELTS TWICE, UNDER WARRANTY. UNFORTUNATELY, IT APPEARS THE HARMONIC BALANCER APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE FOR MANY OF THE 335D VEHICLES, AS WELL AS FOR X5 SAVS, EQUIPPED WITH SAME ENGINE. COMPLETE LOSS OF POWERSTEERING, IS AN UNACCEPTABLE DANGER, IN PARTICULAR FOR A PART THAT APPEARS TO BE WEAK (DESIGN FLAW), AS DOCUMENTED BY OTHER BMW 335D OWNERS.

RECEIVED INITIAL RECALL NOTICE FROM BMW DECEMBER 2017. AS OF MAY 27TH 2018 A REMEDY IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE TO CORRECT ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT COULD CAUSE A POSSIBLE FIRE. BMW IS ABLE TO PROVIDE PARTS TO PRODUCE NEW AUTO'S BUT MAKES LITTLE EFFORT TO CORRECT KNOW ISSUES ON THE AUTOS THAT IT HAS ALREADY SOLD.

MY 2011 BMW 335D SEDAN HAS A RECALL ON THE BLOWER MOTOR WIRING HARNESS THAT COULD CATCH FIRE ANYTIME, EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED AND OFF. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR OVER 2 MONTHS AT THIS POINT, (WHILE STILL MAKING MY HIGH CAR PAYMENT) AND PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE, AND NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL BE. DO I HAVE ANY RECOURSE FOR MY LOSS? BMW NORTH AMERICA SAYS NO, THEY ARE PROVIDING AN ENTERPRISE RENTAL CAR WHICH IS ALL THEY CAN DO.
