While driving, the vehicle exhibits noticeable hesitation, shuddering, and jerking during acceleration at lower speeds and when executing tight turns. This erratic power delivery creates a potential safety hazard, particularly when accelerating into traffic, merging onto highways, or pulling out from intersections, as the momentary loss of predictable drivetrain response increases the risk of a collision.  Despite internal technical bulletins from the manufacturer (SI B27 02 20) acknowledging shuddering caused by transfer case clutch breakdown, no official safety recall has been issued. I request that NHTSA open an investigation into these xDrive transfer case failures to evaluate the safety risks posed by drivetrain hesitation and potential sudden power loss.  Thank you for your attention to this safety issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"X5","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
