This type of failure \u2014 as documented in NHTSA Engineering Analysis EA23-001 \u2014 is known to also occur while the vehicle is in motion, causing unexpected engine stall at highway speeds with no ability to restart.

Shortly after the recall work, the vehicle began showing DDE fault code 2BB300 \u2013 Particulate Sensor Measuring Electrode, Self-Diagnosis, which triggered the MIL. This issue did not exist at any point before the recall.  Although my vehicle is now older than 10 years, the critical concern is that this emissions-related failure appeared soon after the recall intervention, indicating a potential recall-associated defect rather than normal age-related wear.  The fault was diagnosed at BMW West Houston, where it was confirmed; however, I was told no warranty or goodwill support could be provided due to vehicle age, despite the timing suggesting a recall-related cause.  BMW\u2019s emissions warranty extension bulletin (NHTSA TSB ID: MC-10160282-9999) lists particulate sensor failures (2BB700\u20132BA200) as known issues. Many BMW diesel owners have reported similar particulate sensor faults shortly after the EGR cooler recall and related software changes, suggesting a broader pattern.  If the EGR recall or subsequent software calibration is leading to particulate sensor failures and MIL activation, this may represent a post-recall emissions defect affecting compliance.  I request that NHTSA evaluate whether the EGR recall may be contributing to widespread particulate sensor failures.

On about August of 2023, while operating my vehicle, I experienced a sudden and alarming issue that poses a significant risk to both myself and other motorists.  As I came to a routine stop, smoke began pouring out from under the hood of the vehicle, obscuring my vision through the windshield. Simultaneously, a strong odor of diesel permeated the interior of the passenger compartment. Concerned for my safety, I immediately investigated and discovered that the fuel injector area was drenched with diesel fuel. Upon further inspection by a qualified mechanic, it was determined that a crack had developed in the fuel injector, causing the leak.  This defect not only poses a serious fire hazard but also exposes occupants to toxic diesel fumes, creating an immediate and grave risk to safety.  My concern is exacerbated by the fact that this incident appears to be part of a larger pattern of failures in BMW diesel automobiles. I have conducted research and found numerous recalls related to faulty fuel injectors in various BMW models over different years. However, to my astonishment, the 2014 BMW 328D, including mine, has not been included in any such recall despite the clear evidence of a recurring issue with fuel injectors.  Given the severity of the situation and the potential danger it poses to myself and others on the road, I urge the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to thoroughly investigate this matter. It is imperative that immediate action be taken to address this safety hazard, including the consideration of a recall for the affected vehicles.  I kindly request a prompt response regarding the steps being taken to address this issue and ensure the safety of all BMW 328D owners.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"328D","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11554116,"manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/01/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"11/08/2023","vin":"WBA3D3C52EK","components":"ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"stall/loss of power while entering highway on ramp.

Multiple error codes / mechanic inspection diagnosed a malfunction of the exhaust system overheating, which was melting the intake manifold. We towed the car the BMW dealership in Fort Walton Beach, FL. The service technician confirmed the problem in writing, \"The tech did find the intake melted.\" Also, the vehicle had been losing coolant for several weeks, but the coolant was not dripping onto the ground, indicating a leak within the system.

However, my car does not show up as needing any recalls or warranty work, likely because it was sold in Europe. As such, the dealer wants me to pay in excess of $3,000 to fix the problem. Both an independent mechanic and dealer technician have identified the previously-known safety problems as the cause of my car's breakdown on the freeway.

At the recommendation of my local repair shop, the vehicle was then towed 59 miles to the closest BMW dealership, BMW Fairfax, VA, for repair.  The safety issue I have is that a recall notice (Recall Campaign #21V-586) was issued by BMW North America in September 2021 for High Pressure Fuel Pump failures affecting 2014-2018 BMW diesel engine vehicles ranging from 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, X3 SAV, and X5 SAV models.  I never received a recall notice for this vehicle, or my 2015 BMW X5d SAV, and have been told by BMW Fairfax, VA, and BMW Corporate that my high pressure fuel pump only carries an extended 10-year, 120,000 warranty, even through both vehicles falls within the parameters of the open recall notice issued by BMW North America.  Further, BMW Fairfax, VA has informed me that all other parts damaged by the High Pressure Fuel Pump failure are not covered by the extended warranty and any cost associated with additional repairs is the customers responsibility, regardless of the fact that they will only replace the defective part at the time of failure and not before.  How can BMW North America issue a recall notice for a specific group of vehicles, but not include all vehicles that fall within the specifications associated to the recall?  This part failure occurred while I was driving in heavy traffic and I was fortunate it did not cause series bodily harm to myself or others.

The door operates in a two-step manner - pull the door latch once to unlock the door, and then pull again to open the door.  However, sometimes the first pull fails to unlock the door and the only way to unlock the vehicle is with the electric door unlock.  When this occurs, there is notable tension in the door handle, and the pop-up unlock indicator does move upwards in synch with the door handle position - it's simply not reaching the unlock point, and there is resistance felt in the door latch.  Even trying to assist the mechanism by grasping the unlock indicator (as doors used to be unlocked in this fashion) does not work.  Obviously, if the electric system fails for any reason, not being able to open the door is a major safety issue.  When this happens it is also observed that the electric lock operates very slowly.  Instead of the post popping up and unlocking almost immediately, it takes a second or two for the door to unlock, as if there is additional internal resistance in the mechanism.  This is observed on BOTH the driver and passenger side doors.  I have brought this to the attention of the dealer on separate occasions.  The suggestion has been to replace a cable in the door due to stretch.  However, based on the nature of the issue and the symptoms in both doors it seems like an issue with the latch or locking mechanism itself.  The passenger door is unlocked very infrequently compared to the driver's door and it seem unlikely they would wear at the same rate if it was a cable stretch issue.  I have been able to record a video of this problem occurring.  I plan to show it to the dealer at my next service in the next couple weeks since they were unable to replicate the issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"328D","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11441756,"manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/23/2021","dateComplaintFiled":"11/26/2021","vin":"WBA3D3C50EK","components":"FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL","summary":"The contact owns a 2014 BMW 328d.

I ENTERED A SPACE TO PARK, PRESSING BRAKES. THE CAR DID NOT STOP AND HIT A CEMENT BARRIER. I WAS UNINJURED BUT IT CAUSED NEARLY $6,000 WORTH OF VEHICLE DAMAGE. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR SAME YEAR 328I'S. ALLSTATE REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE BECAUSE THERE IS NO RECALL FOR 328D'S. WOULD NOT THESE TWO VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME BRAKING SYSTEM? I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE ALSO HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE HYDRAULIC BRAKES AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.   *JS","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"328D","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
