AS I WAS ARRIVING TO PARK MY BMW I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO PUT IT INTO PARK BUT THE BRAKES FAILED, IN RESULT THE CAR DROVE THREW THE BUILDING. WHEN THE REAR WHEELS REACHED THE CURBSIDE/SIDEWALK, IT STOPPED THE CAR, CAUSING THE BUILDING TO GET DAMAGE. AND I GOT A TICKET FOR MALFUNCTION OF BRAKE BUT IT IS NOT MY FAULT FOR THE MALFUNCTION OF THE BRAKES BECAUSE I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 3 MONTHS AGO FROM A CARMAX DEALER. AND AT THAT TIME THE MILEAGE WAS 46185. WHEN I WAS CHECKING ONLINE, AND THERE IS A LOT OF COMPLAINS ABOUT THE BRAKES IN BMW. IN ONE ARTICLE IT STATED QUOTE:"A CHECK VALVE OF THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP MAY LEAK A SMALL AMOUNT OF LUBRICATING OIL.? IT CONTINUED, ?OVER TIME THIS COULD RESULT IN THE CONTAMINATION OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER. IF THIS OCCURRED, THE POWER-ASSIST BRAKING COULD BE AFFECTED.? END QUOTE. *TR

JUST HAD TO PAID OVER $900 DOLLARS TO HAVE MY FRONTS PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR MAT REPLACED. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALLED ISSUED FOR THESE ITEM ON NOVEMBER 2013 RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V-564. I WAS TOLD BY BMW OF DALLAS THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I FIND IT A AN ODD COINCIDENT THAT MY VEHICLE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON AND BMW TECHNICIANS DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AS A FAULTY SENSOR MAT BUT I'M TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE MANUFACTURE DATE DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE DATES THE FAULTY MAT WAS USED. I THINK BMW SHOULD LOOK INTO THE POSSIBILITY THAT MORE VIN NUMBERS MIGHT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY A FAULTY MAT AND MORE VIN NUMBERS SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2007 750I BMW IN 11/2013. SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT, I STARTED HAVING BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUES. THE BRAKE PAD BECOMES HARD TO PRESS AND I HAVE ACTUALLY ROLLED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO BMW OF DALLAS AND WAS TOLD THAT MY BRAKE BOOSTER WAS CONTAMINATED BUT MY VEHICLES BRAKE BOOSTER WAS "CHECKED OUT" (NOT REPAIRED) IN 2011 AND DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM "THEN" SO BMW IS NOT GOING TO REPAIR THE RECALL NOW. I WAS TOLD IF I WANTED THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIRED I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT AND BMW IS NOT RESPONSIBLE BECAUSE IN 2011 WHEN IT WAS "CHECKED OUT" IT WAS FINE. I FEEL THAT BMW KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE AND BEFORE I HAVE AN ACCIDENT OR KILL MYSELF THEY SHOULD HONOR THE RECALL AND ?REPAIR? MY VEHICLES BRAKE BOOSTER FREE OF CHARGE. GM IS HONORING RECALLS AFTER ISSUES CAUSED DEATHS?..IS BMW WAITING FOR DEATHS TO HONOR THEIR RECALL??? THAT?S NOT GOOD, NOT GOOD AT ALL! *TR
