Greetings:  I am writing pursuant to recalls No. 24V\u2011608, both remedy unavailable and remedy available, ten months later. During the intervening ten months, I experienced hardship, expense and loss of use of my vehicle.  The attached documents represent my correspondence to BMW Customer relations. The docs were submitted on September 22, 2025 and October 14, 2025, by email. I have received no response, to date; not even acknowledgement of receipt.  I hereby submit my belief that BMW has some responsibility for failure to cure the smoke condition they knew about for ten months. Please note the BMW service inspection of August 14, 2025 in which it was stated that my warning lights passed the inspection. Meanwhile, the warning lights on my dashboard look like a \u201cxmas tree\u201d.  I am being ghosted by BMW and I have no power, unless you say I do. Please help in any way which is fair.

The outdated GPS system results in inaccurate directions, missing roads, and potentially unsafe routes. BMW dealerships confirm there are no solutions, creating a long-term safety hazard for owners who rely on navigation systems. 2.Recall Incomplete: I have an open recall on this vehicle, but BMW dealerships have only responded with vague statements such as, \u201cit should be coming soon.\u201d There has been no formal notification, letter, or resolution from BMW. This lack of transparency and urgency in addressing safety recalls is unacceptable. 3.Unethical Service Tactics: BMW dealerships are often more focused on convincing customers to upgrade their vehicle than resolving legitimate service issues. Staff push expensive services and frame them as \u201ccomplaints\u201d on invoices\u2014using high-pressure tactics to imply serious mechanical threats unless those services are purchased. This raises concerns about ethics and misrepresentation. This experience is based on NY but all BMW dealership operate same way overpricing and if you tell them a BMW dealership gives you less than what is on their quote, they want them to show it to you , reflecting their unethical manner to overprice everything when it comes to service or selling.   Safety Concern: The combination of an unsupported navigation system and delayed recall resolution undermines vehicle safety and consumer trust. BMW's conduct demonstrates a disregard for long-term customer support and safety compliance. Resolution Requested: \u2022Require BMW to provide retrofit or updated navigation options. \u2022Enforce clear timelines and communication for resolving recalls. \u2022Investigate dealership practices that prioritize upselling over safety and truthfulness.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"528I","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11667779,"manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/14/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"06/18/2025","vin":"WBA5A5C57ED","components":"ENGINE","summary":"While on [XXX] the car suddenly shows low engine oil.

Component/System Failure: Both the front and rear door actuators have failed simultaneously, causing the door locks to stop working. The door latches are non-functional and require immediate repair. The components are available for inspection upon request.  Safety Risk: This malfunction compromises the security of the vehicle, posing a potential safety risk to myself and passengers, as the doors may not lock properly while driving or when parked.  Confirmation of Problem: The issue has been inspected and confirmed by an independent repair shop, which diagnosed the door latches as defective and in urgent need of replacement.  Manufacturer or Other Inspections: To date, the vehicle has not been inspected by BMW or any official representatives. I have not involved police or insurance representatives but would be willing to do so if necessary.  Warning Signs: Prior to the failure, there were no warning lamps or messages displayed on the dashboard indicating a problem. The door lock malfunction occurred suddenly without prior symptoms.  Through my research, I learned that similar door actuator issues are being addressed under a recall for newer BMW models. Given that my 2014 vehicle experiences the same problem, I am concerned it has not been included in this recall.  I kindly request BMW\u2019s guidance and support to resolve this matter promptly to ensure the safety and proper functioning of my vehicle.  Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your prompt response.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2014","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"528I","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]},{"odiNumber":11661874,"manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"05/19/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"05/19/2025","vin":"WBA5A7C53ED","components":"ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM","summary":"The contact owns a 2014 BMW 528I.

Last week, I was driving the car and all of the dashboard lights went on suddenly. The car began to buck and I pulled over immediately. I had the car towed to the local BMW dealership. The service department informed me, the serpentine belt broke, wrapped around the crankshaft, and grinded into pieces. The pieced of the belt were sucked into the engine and caused the engine to seize. When researching this problem, because I never heard of it before, it seems it is a fairly common problem with BMW\u2019s. The BMW dealership wanted $14,000 to insert a new engine. There is no way I can afford that, and if it is a known problem, why wasn\u2019t there a recall? I contacted BMW customer service and they said there was nothing they can do to help me. I am stuck with a auto loan for $19,000 with monthly payments, and a car that doesn\u2019t move. When I purchased the car last year, an extended warranty was around 8k because the car was older.
