FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

fuel pump failed a month after the car was leased. when i went to start the car, the engine would not start up. i took it to bmw and they stated that they needed to replace the fuel pump. this fuel pump failure could have stalled while i was driving. i started investigating and noticed hundreds of complaints. its a shame nothing has been done from your agency thus far as well as a recall from bmw.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

my 2010 bmw 335xi (3,500 miles) suddenly stalled on wa highway 520, on the lake washington bridge in the middle of rush hour traffic due to hpfp failure. there was a malfunction warning on the nav display, stating that only limited engine power was available, when two seconds later the engine stalled, losing power steering and brakes as well. i was going approx. 25 mph in heavy traffic entering the bridge that has no shoulder. i was blocking one of two eastbound lanes and posed a significant safety risk. i was able to restart the engine and go for approx. 50 yards before the engine stalled again. doing so 4-5 times i reached the midspan turnout and stopped in an extremely dangerous spot. i called roadside assistance when a dot truck approached and pushed me off the remainder of the bridge. i was in an extremely unsafe position for approx. 30 minutes! the car was towed and the problem was a high pressure fuel pump failure, the pump was replaced. when i called bmw to complain, the rep said she had never heard of this problem before. i just read an article and this problem seems to be widespread. a brand new car stalling on the freeway without warning is extremely unnerving and dangerous.

STRUCTURE:BODY

oil pump pressure went out on 36,000 miles after a recall was done on my car by bmw on may 2013. the recall was changing the electrical battery cables. right after the recall was performed in my car i had this error on my computer: "engine oil pressure too low. possible engine damages, switch off engine. continued driving is not possible. please contact the nearest bme center" right after the recall was made my engine start loosing power. i called and complain bmw of na and they denied my complains. i really believe this oil pump should be a recall since i got 2 recalls already on my car. first recall was the fuel pump now the oil pump. how many things will have to break in this 2010 335xi until they will recognize it as a lemon car? i believe that my oil pump was going out because of the recall that they had on the electrical battery cables.
