2017 BMW X1 Complaints

Warning light comes on stating “Secure Vehicle from Rolling” when vehicle is in park. I called BMW and took the vehicle in the next morning. The BMW dealership stated the Transmission needed to be repaired shift lever module. At a cost of $2,858.40.

Receiving message to secure vehicle against rolling when parking. It seems like the solution involves a $10 spring but costs $2000+ to replace. My vehicle has been serviced at the dealership consistently and has 50,530 miles on it so it has had an easy life and this seems not to be. Normal wear and tear issue.

Secure vehicle against rolling light on was looked at by 2 independent mechanics and bmw of Wilmington saying pin breaks in shifter assembly. It’s seems to be a common issue that bmw needs to recall and fix. The 5.00-10.00 pin should not cost consumers 3000.00 to fix. The entire assembly does not need replaced. The pin needs recalled for safety purposes

When gear selector is put in park warning comes on SECURE VEHICLE FROM ROLLING. Not knowing if this is a false warning or not car could roll if emergency brake is not applied. Numerous complaints to BMW about this condition happening on many BMW X1 models on BMW forum and complaints to BMW also to NHTSA. By myself. No prior warnings.

Warning light comes on stating “Secure Vehicle Against Rolling” when vehicle is in park. I called BMW and took the vehicle in the next morning. The BMW dealership stated the GEAR SELECTOR LEVER ASSEMBLY needed to be replaced and needs immediate attention. At a cost of $2,858.40. Apparently I am not the only person who feels this is a safety issue due to a manufacturing malfunction and should be repaired by BMW. The bigger problem is people are opting to ignore the warning because it’s to costly to repair and have found a way to override the warning light. This is a safety concern to the public and I hope it will be addressed in a recall. My vehicle only has 53k miles on it and has been well maintained and cared for.

The vehicle has started displaying an error message when parking stating to secure the vehicle against rolling. This is due to a very common issue with a spring in the shifter needing to be replaced. Based on what I have read, the spring issue is occurring in almost all 2016 and 2017 bmw x1's. This should be a recall and not a $3k repair bill.

SECURE VEHICLE FROM ROLLING warning light came on with car in park and handbrake on...checked online seems 5 dollar spring in shifter broke and they want thousands to fix.

My BMW X1 has an error code that states transmission: secure, vehicle against rolling. I have seen various issues with this happening in other BMW X1.

I purchased the car used in September 2023. About three months ago got the following warning "Transmission : Secure Vehicle with Parking Brake when Stationary. Consult Service Center." The issue seems to be a Shiftlock solenoid selector Lever coil spring that was compromised. No accidents. This is triggering a warning every time upon tuyrning the vehicle on.

ALERT STATING: SECURE VEHICLE AGAINST ROLLING. This is happening when I turn on the car and when I am trying to turn off the car. Nothing happening with the car at the moment but does prevent me from turning off the car at times. It raises a concern because I don't want the car rolling into another car, building or even a person. The side mirror on the driver's side also keeps readjusting on its own which has caused issues while driving by shifting from my blindside.
