ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AFTER A ROUND TRIP 25 MILES DRIVE AND PLACING THE CAR IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE OFF, THE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL, BECAUSE THE CENTRAL LOCKING SYSTEM WOULD LOCK THE CAR, BUT WOULD NOT UNLOCK. THE DRIVER DOOR DOES OPEN FROM THE INSIDE BUT THE PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT. THIS COULD BE CATASTROPHIC IN CASE OF FIRE OR ACCIDENT.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I PURCHASED THE 2010 BMW 750 LI IN OCT 2017. IN APRIL 2018, I BEGAN TO HAVE ISSUES AND MESSAGES CONSTANTLY POPPED UP CONCERNING ENGINE TEMP DRIVE MODERATELY AND DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION. I KEPT THE CAR'S MAINTENANCE UP, HOWEVER, EVEN A WEEK AFTER AN OIL & FILTER CHANGE, I'D GET THE LOW OIL WARNINGS & NEEDED TO ADD OIL CONSTANTLY. OIL WAS LEAKING BAD. THE CAR WOULD GET UP TO 35-40 MPH (BETWEEN 1 & 2 RPM) & START SHAKING OR WOULDN'T SHIFT OVER. I'D HAVE TO PRESS ACCELERATOR DOWN TO ACCELERATE TO ATLEAST 70 MPH SO THE SHAKING & VIBRATION COULD STOP. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A BMW REPAIR SHOP IN 08/28/2018. IGNITION COILS, SPARK PLUGS, OIL CHANGE, FILTERS, ALL WERE REPLACED. BRAKE FLUID WAS FLUSHED AS WELL. THE OIL ISSUE NEVER STOPPED. AFTER MONTHS OF ADDING OIL EVERY FEW DAYS, THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE BMW SHOP (APRIL 2019). AT THAT POINT, I WAS TOLD TO TAKE TO THE BMW REPAIR SHOP DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED & THEY PERFORMED THE N63 ENGINE RECALL REPAIRS IN MAY 2019. THE SMOKING SUBSIDED, BUT IN JULY 2019, THE CAR WAS BACK IN BMW'S REPAIR SHOP BECAUSE IT HAD NOW GOTTEN THE SAME READINGS BUT IT HAD ALSO BEGUN TO SMOKE BADLY, UPON STARTING, STOPPING AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS. ALONG WITH ENGINE TEMP LIGHTS, AND DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AGAIN. ENGINE TEMP LIGHT CAME ON EVERY DAY AS SOON AS I CRUNK THE CAR. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME IT WOULD GO OFF IN JULY 2019, AFTER THE REPAIRS. DECEMBER 2019, ENGINE TEMP LIGHT IS STILL ON. AGAIN, SEVERAL LIGHTS ARE NOW ON. DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION ALSO AND THE CAR IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY, AS BEFORE. IT'S VIBRATING AT 35 MPH. BECAUSE IT'S THE HOLIDAYS, THE BMW DEALERSHIP AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT ARE CLOSED. FIRST THING TOMORROW, I WILL BE BACK THERE. I HAVE TO WORK AND AFRAID THAT THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY GIVE OUT ON ME. IT'S ALL I HAVE. I'M BASICALLY WORKING TO FIX THE CAR!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
JUST HAD A NEW FACTORY ENGINE PUT IN MY 2010 BMW 750LI UNDER A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, IN AUGUST 2019. DECEMBER 2019 WIFE WAS DRIVING CAR TO GROCERY STORE AND ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED BUCKING AND SMELL OF GAS WAS OVERWHELMING. SHE WAS IN TRAFFIC AT THE TIME AND COULD NOT MAINTAIN PROPER SPEED ON THE 50MPH HIGHWAY AND LOST TOTAL POWER. SHE NURSED CAR INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. IT WAS SNOWING OUT AND HAD TO WAIT FOR A TOW TRUCK FOR AN HOUR IN FREEZING TEMPERATURES. ASIDE FROM THE OVERWHELMING FUEL SMELL, ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT BY NOT BEING ABLE TO MAINTAIN PROPER SPEED, SHE WAS WAITING IN FREEZING TEMPERATURES FOR TOW TRUCK. THIS, I FOUND OUT, IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. ITS WAS A FUEL INJECTOR THAT CAUSED THE ISSUE. THIS IS TRUELY A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE PUBLIC. AND AN EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE FIX. BMW HAS MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE FUEL INJECTORS, BUT SEEM TO IGNORE THE ISSUE AND PROFIT HEAVILY FROM THE CUSTOMERS LOSS. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT FULLY LATCH/CLOSE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, WHICH PREVENTED ME FORM BEING ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR. SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE BY VIEWING DOOR LATCH TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS NO OBSTRUCTION AND THE LATCH WAS POSITIONED CORRECTLY. THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ALSO SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE. AFTER WAITING ON A TOW TRUCK TO ARRIVE THE DRIVER MANIPULATED THE SAME PIECES I DID, ONE EXCEPTION BEING, HE LET THE WINDOW DOWN, AND THEN PUSHED DOOR CLOSE AND IT LATCHED. I AM NOW SCARED TO DRIVE IT SINCE I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I DROVE IT TO BARON BMW (SHAWNEE MISSION, KANSAS) AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTING THEY COULD DO UNLESS IT HAPPENED AGAIN/STOPPED WORKING AT WHICH POINT I WOULD NEED TO HAVE IT TOWED. I LATER LEARNED THAT A FRIEND (SIMILAR CAR, JUST A YEAR OR TWO OLDER) HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH HER RIGHT SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. I CHECKED THE RECALL AND DON'T SEE THAT MY CAR HAS ANY OPEN RECALLS. I CANNOT JUST WAIT TO SEE IF THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND I DO NEED TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR. PLEASE ADVISE. [XXX] [XXX]; [XXX].
