High-pressure fuel pump went out leaving wife stranded while struggling to get to the side of road. Bmw knows about the fuel pressure failure never contacted us about it. They have a 25 year safety recall the car is a 2014 but it was built in 2013 but sold as a 2014 so they’re wiggling out of the recall fix I don’t even have 100,000 miles on the car

1.) The Bosch CP4 High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP), OEM part number 13517824477 / 0445010517, failed catastrophically. This is the factory-installed pump on the 2014 BMW 328d equipped with the N47 diesel engine. Upon failure, the pump's internal cam and roller assembly disintegrated, releasing metal shavings throughout the entire fuel system — contaminating the fuel lines, injectors, fuel rail, and fuel tank. The vehicle will not start. The failed pump and contaminated fuel system components are available for inspection upon request. 2.) The vehicle experienced a sudden, complete loss of motive power with no prior warning, rendering it unable to start or operate. This type of failure — as documented in NHTSA Engineering Analysis EA23-001 — is known to also occur while the vehicle is in motion, causing unexpected engine stall at highway speeds with no ability to restart. This creates an immediate risk of rear-end collision, loss of vehicle control, and danger to other motorists. The failure provides no warning to the driver and cannot be prevented through normal maintenance practices. 3.) Yes. The high-pressure fuel pump failure and presence of metal shavings throughout the fuel system have been confirmed by a BMW authorized dealership. The dealer has documented the failure and provided a repair estimate for full fuel system replacement — including the HPFP, injectors, fuel lines, and tank cleaning — at an estimated cost of $10,000–$15,000. BMW of North America has declined warranty coverage citing that the vehicle has exceeded the 120,000-mile threshold under Recall 21V-586, despite this being the identical defect covered by that recall. 4.) Yes. The vehicle has been inspected by a independent BMW Specialist 5.) Check engine light was present

The fuel system has failed. The car shut off in the Baltimore harbor tunnel twice completely stopping traffic and creating a very hazard situation. One of those two times the semi truck behind me had to slam its brakes. When the car shuts off you must come to a complete stop and turn the car completely off. After restarting the car is in limp mode with reduced power. The incident has happened about 6 other times. Every time it happens I have feared my safety, especially if there is no shoulder to coast the car in to park. Independent service center has replaced three sensors related to fuel pressure system which did not fix. The vehicle and component has not been inspected by manufacture, police, insurance representatives or others. The manufacture claims there are no recalls on the fuel system of the vehicle. The vehicle has a rebuilt title from a small accident because no parts were available during covid so the insurance wrote the car off. The car was inspected by the state of North Carolina and deemed safe for the road. There is no indication that the car is going to shut off. It just cuts power and shuts off. After restarting the car, it will show a check engine light on the cluster and a drivetrain error on the infotainment screen . The error code p0087 Fuel/rail system Pressure - too low bank 1
