  DEAR SIR/MA'AM, I AM WRITING THIS AFTER AN AWFUL INCIDENT THAT I WENT THROUGH TODAY, I AM SO LUCKY TO BE ALIVE WITH MY FAMILY.I WAS DRIVING MY 2008 BMW 323I WHICH HAS 190,000 KM ON IT ON A HIGHWAY WHEN IT SUDDENLY STARTED VIBRATING AND WENT ONTO ALMOST HITTING ANOTHER TRAILER TRUCK IN FRONT OF US. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FIVE MINUTES OFF THE EXIT. I LIVE IN TORONTO CANADA, THE DEALERSHIP HAS SEEN IT AND THEY SAID I HAVE TWO BROKEN HEADS OF THE BOLTS THAT HOLDS THE MOTOR ENGINE IN PLACE AND I WOULD HAVE LOST MY LIFE IF I DIDN'T COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR SINCE 2007 AND I HAVE ALWAYS LIKED BMW BUT NEVER AFTER THINGS LIKE THIS I WOULD RECOMMEND OR BUY ANYTHING FROM BMW.THERE WAS A RECALL BUT SOMEHOW THE DEALERSHIP WANTS $4000 FROM ME TO FIX IT. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND ALSO I AM FORWARDING A COPY OF THIS EMAIL TO NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. PLEASE GIVE ME A GOOD ANSWER AND MAKE SURE THIS IS FIXED ASAP.

  ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING

  WHEN I WAS TOLD THAT MY DRIVER SIGNAL IS NOT WORKING, I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER, I WAS INFORMED THAT NOT ONLY THE CONTACT BETWEEN THE LIGHT SOCKET AND ASSEMBLY WAS BURNED AND MELTED, BUT THERE WAS ALSO DAMAGE TO THE ASSEMBLY, SO I NEED TO CHANGE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, I WAS VERY SHOCKED, BECAUSE MY CAR ONLY HAS 27030 MILES, AND THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY WAS SUDDENLY BURNED. I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS AS THE WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD DID NOT SPECIFY WHICH LIGHT WAS IT FOR. I THOUGHT THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE, AND I WAS ONLY NOTIFIED ABOUT THIS BY PASSENGERS CROSSING WHO TOLD ME THEY DO NOT KNOW I WAS TURNING LEFT. I KNOW BMW IS CURRENTLY HANDLING ELECTRICAL RELATED PROBLEM, SUCH AS TAIL LIGHT MALFUNCTIONS AND CAR ON FIRE. *TR
