VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: PASSENGER VEHICLES. A MALFUNCTION OR FAILURE OF A COOLANT SYSTEM COMPONENT, SUCH AS A THERMOSTAT, WATER PUMP, OR FAN BELT, CAN RESULT IN SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED COOLANT TEMPERATURE AND SYSTEM PRESSURE. IF THE INDICATIONS OF A CRITICAL OVERHEATING CONDITION IS NOT NOTICED BY THE DRIVER, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT DAMAGE TO, OR FAILURE OF, A COOLANT SYSTEM COMPONENT COULD OCCUR.
THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THROTTLE CABLES ARE ATTACHED TO THE SAME THROTTLE VALVE ACTUATING LEVER AT THE THROTTLE HOUSING. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE PLASTIC BUSHING ON EITHER CABLE COULD BREAK DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES COUPLED WITH VIBRATION. IF THE BUSHING BREAKS, THE OUTER CABLE HOUSING CAN SEPARATE FROM THE BUSHING. IN THIS CASE, DURING APPLICATION OF THE THROTTLE PEDAL WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL BEING ENGAGED, THE OUTER TUBE COULD CATCH ON THE EDGE OF THE BROKEN BUSHING.
The hard plastic cover on my BMW's R.O.P.S. Rollover Protection System came off. The BMW and Roll Over Protection System is available for for inspection. I was struck violently by the cover that came off. I was diagnosed with a concussion and closed head injury at the hospital. Digital Motion X-Rays show that I have painful, progressive, and permanent injuries. I also suffered a cut to the right ear from the cover. The problem has not been reproduced by a dealer or service center. Due to Covid concerns the insurance company has only seen pictures of my BMW. To my knowledge there are no warning lights etc. about the Roll Over Protection System.
YOU MAY REACH ME AT MY HOME # IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, NOR HAVE I RUN INTO OR HIT ANYTHING WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. THIS CAR IS IN IMMACULATE CONDITION AND IS GARAGE KEPT EVERY DAY.*AK
