bmw 5-series gran turismo 2010 Complaints

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

campaign id number: 10v331000 our 2010 bmw 5 series gran turismo was purchased on december 28 from bmw of encinitas california while this recall was in effect. (recall started oct 18, 2010) they never performed the recall repair before delivering the vehicle, never informed us of a recall at the time of purchase, and we were never informed of a recall by this dealer or by bmw at any time afterwards. we only found out about the recall when we visited another dealer in late june, 8 months later, and, as a courtesy, they checked the key fob information and found there was an outstanding recall. we took the vehicle in on june 27 to have the repair done. fortunately, the vehicle did not experience a failure in the interim! as a safety engineer and investigator i find this to be inexcusable. how many other recalls are out there on the road without any notice from bmw?

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

while driving, approximate speed of 30 miles per hour my car slowed down and showed a signal on the dash board saying a reduction in power. i took the vehicle to bmw and was told nothing could be found. manager told me it may have been bad gas. since october 22, 2012 the vehicle has had this happen 3 more times. each incident with the reduction in power has occurred at different speeds and the terrain was different. each time it is taken to bmw i was told they cannot find the problem. the technician suggested i turn the vehicle on and off about ten times after putting fuel in it. that did not, nor has not solved the problem. after viewing other complaints on this series i have found i' am not the only person having this problem.
