2017 BMW X1 Complaints

As car is placed in park, and even after the parking brake is applied a message on the dash board and alert pops up saying "Secure Vehicle from Rolling" even though I am on a very flat street. Under details it states "Secure vehicle with parking brake when stopped. Consult service center." The parking brake is engaged!

A small spring in the shifter has broken not allowing the vehicle to recognize it is in park and could roll while parked causing injury. This is a known issue for BMWs in this model and year range. It can be fixed with a new spring but dealer insists that a new shifter is needed. So a $20 part fix vs. a $600 part fix. There are hundreds of others online and world wide that this has happened to. There now is a warning when shutting off vehicle to protect against rolling. This is happening to relatively low mile vehicles.

Sunshae blind is falling off on one side causing bad view of a light while driving I'm a tall man. Electric issue possible causing the track to function wrong causing sun shade to tear off. Small amount thin line of adhesive can be seen on the cloth shade. Please issue something about this many drivers on car threads have this issue.

7/19/2022 I got a drivetrain warning. Turned car off and on and it cleared the warning but now I am getting a secure vehicle against rolling notice every time I turn car off. This appears to be the same problem with other BMW X 1s.

Car won't start up on first try anymore. Taking 3 tries. Keeps saying that there is no signal. Seems like from the bimmer forum a lot of people are having the same issue. Also saying to close the hood when the hood isn't open. It's happening every day now that the messages are popping up and the car won't start! I hope there is a recall asap. I've only had this car for a year and is has $38k miles on it! Absolutely ridiculous. These cars are to expensive to be dealing with this issue!

The contact owns a 2017 BMW X1. The contact stated his wife was driving at 35 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed to slow the vehicle down however her purse got entrapped near the brake pedal and accelerator pedal causing her to crash into the vehicle in front who was stopped. The air bags failed to deploy and the seat belt failed to retract. The contacts wife collided with the steering wheel due to the impact. The contact's wife suffered chest injuries where a doctor later confirmed she had a cracked sternum. A police report was filed, and the vehicle was towed to a Collison Center. The dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 58,000.

I’m having an issue with the warning light saying “Secure Vehicle from Rolling“. Vehicle has less than 47K miles. Many other owners reporting same issue in online discussion groups and forums. Identified multiple reports for the same issues already identified on NHTSA's website for complaints.

Warning sign in front dashboard. Transmission: Secure vechicle with parking brake when stopped. Consult Service Center. From doing research found out this warning message is very common in BMWX1 requiring a small spring to be changed in a lot of the vechicles. But no recall being issues yet by Bmw. Just astronomical fees to change a little spring.

When putting the vehicle in park, I got an alert that said "secure car from rolling". I was unable to find this warning in the owner's manual but I found online that it is a frequent problem with this vehicle, usually around 40k miles. It's a broken spring in the shifter that requires that the entire center console be removed to be replaced but the part was $7.27 including shipping from China. However, other X1 owners report that they have been quoted $1000-$4050 to repair it. Because it's a common problem with this model, it should be a recall.

My car only has 64K miles and it's giving message Secure Vehicle from Rolling. I've read this is a common fault with this car. Shouldn't this be part of recall.
