Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle had a crash before receiving the recall on 28th august 2023 at 10.00am. The car swerved to the right and dashed on a parked car. There were no injuries. But the Cars right front was damaged. At first I could not understand what happened and because of the dash the airbags got deployed and I was dazed for moments. Later when the towing truck moved the car I saw the left front tire had burst. When I leased and brought the car within 15 days the same side tyre had burst but the road was clear and I could take care . I got a new car tyre fitted at my cost from the Seattle BMW dealership office. In the current accident before I could realize anything the car had dashed. The speed however was 25miles/hour. Later the insurance came in the picture and the car was sent to collision center NW Fife an authorized repair shop certified by BMW. The extent of damage as reported was considered as irreparable and the insurance company informed me that the car had to be scrapped. The issue is there was some defect either due to the tyre fitted as the incident repeated and secondly the safety mechanism did not brake automatically. The recall letter States that the fault of automatic stopping was there and needed to be repaired. I had informed immediately after the accident the dealer from where I bought the car. There was contact from the dealer of any communication except a note get it replied through your insurance In my 50 years of driving I have not had one incident of car dash or damage. Secondly the extensive damage indicates the poor safety of the car body leave alone the fault in the safety software . This is premium car and I was shocked to see the extent of damage.

There was contact from the dealer of any communication except a note get it replied through your insurance In my 50 years of driving I have not had one incident of car dash or damage. Secondly the extensive damage indicates the poor safety of the car body leave alone the fault in the safety software . This is premium car and I was shocked to see the extent of damage.
Additional Notes:
My vehicle had a crash before receiving the recall on 28th august 2023 at 10.00am. The car swerved to the right and dashed on a parked car. There were no injuries. But the Cars right front was damaged. At first I could not understand what happened and because of the dash the airbags got deployed and I was dazed for moments. Later when the towing truck moved the car I saw the left front tire had burst. When I leased and brought the car within 15 days the same side tyre had burst but the road was clear and I could take care . I got a new car tyre fitted at my cost from the Seattle BMW dealership office. In the current accident before I could realize anything the car had dashed. The speed however was 25miles/hour. Later the insurance came in the picture and the car was sent to collision center NW Fife an authorized repair shop certified by BMW. The extent of damage as reported was considered as irreparable and the insurance company informed me that the car had to be scrapped. The issue is there was some defect either due to the tyre fitted as the incident repeated and secondly the safety mechanism did not brake automatically. The recall letter States that the fault of automatic stopping was there and needed to be repaired. I had informed immediately after the accident the dealer from where I bought the car. There was contact from the dealer of any communication except a note get it replied through your insurance In my 50 years of driving I have not had one incident of car dash or damage. Secondly the extensive damage indicates the poor safety of the car body leave alone the fault in the safety software . This is premium car and I was shocked to see the extent of damage.

BMW CUSTOMER SERVICE ADVISES THAT THEY ONLY HAVE ONLINE VERSIONS. ISN'T THE PHYSICAL AVAILABILITY OF A USER MANUAL A REQUIREMENT ? WILLING TO PAY FOR IT, BUT THE OEM DOESN'T EVEN SELL ONE.
