ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
Due to the terrible turbo v design my n63 engine , stalls, throws misfire codes, tranny malfunctioning codes , lean fuel codes , it’s truly dangerous to drive . The vehicle sits at 101250 miles that’s driven less than 10k miles per year since it was produced and I was totally mislead , unfairly charged for something that was deemed to be great & life changing but it has been the total opposite! I truly want BMW of America to repair because this doesn’t happen if they did not design the vehicle to destroy itself in order to make monies ! Please help me with this car .. PLEASE . Thanks

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Car caught fire while parked. No signal on car indicating any problem. Car caught fire in front of my child's community center exposing children to smoke inhalation. I had to call the fire department to put out the fire. My car year and model was recalled for this but not my VIN. This has never happened to any of my cars in my life I'm just thinking how bad it could of been if I was one the highway.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
ENGINE FAILURE (WITH ONLY 60K MILES ON IT) WHILE DRIVING AT 70MPH WITHIN MINUTES OF WARNING LIGHT SAYING 'DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION'. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, CAR WENT INTO NEUTRAL AND I HAD TO MANUALLY STEER AND BRAKE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY. WITHIN MINUTES, THE BATTERY DIED, SO I COULDN'T EVEN PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL TO GET IT ONTO THE FLATBED TOW TRUCK. I EVENTUALLY WAS ABLE TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT CPO IN 2015 AND HAVE HAD IT SERVICED (I HAD EVEN HAD IT SERVICED THERE 3 WEEKS BEFORE THIS INCIDENT). THE ENGINE HAD RECEIVED THE "CUSTOMER CARE PACKAGE" IN 2015, AND I'VE ONLY HAD IT SERVICED THROUGH BMW DEALERS. 3 DAYS AFTER I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER, THE SA TOLD ME THERE WAS A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE AND THEY WOULD REPLACE THE ENGINE. IT'S BEEN THERE FOR 4 MONTHS NOW, WAITING FOR A NEW ENGINE, AND THE MANAGER OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CAN'T PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE ON WHEN THE NEW ENGINE WILL ARRIVE. I CONTACTED BMW NA, AND THEY WERE ALSO UNABLE TO TELL ME WHEN A REPLACEMENT ENGINE COULD BE EXPECTED. I'M NOT EVEN SURE I WANT A REPLACEMENT ENGINE THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO FAIL AGAIN.

TIRES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE RUN FLAT THAT COMES WITH THE VEHICLE IS SO UNSTABLE THAT ANY FLIGHT BUMP ON THE ROAD RESULTS IN A BURSTED TIRE. EVEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY IS NO EXCEPTION. I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRES DO OFTEN THAT I AM NOW VERY RELUCTANT TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE EVEN CONTACTED BMW CUSTOMER SERVICE TO COMPLAIN BUT TO NO AVAIL. I BELIEVE THIS PARTICULAR MODEL HAS A MISMATCH OF THE TIRE WIDTH AND SPECIFICATIONS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AS THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ROAD SAFETY ISSUE.
