What owners report
I WAS DRIVING ALONG A SMOOTH ROAD (FM1488) ON A SUNNY DAY AND HEARD AN LOUD "POP". AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I DISCOVERED THAT MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAD BURST IN AN OUTWARDLY DIRECTION. LUCKILY, MY SUN SHADE CAUGHT THE GLASS SO NONE OF IT CAME DOWN INTO THE INTERIOR. TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THERE WERE NO ROCKS OR OTHER OBJECTS THAT HIT THE GLASS, IT JUST SEEMED TO BURST SPONTANEOUSLY WITHOUT WARNING. I AM VERY SURPRISED THAT A SUNROOF THIS LARGE IS NOT LAMINATED, ESPECIALLY IN A BMW.
ON 8/24 MY 2012 535I WITH ONLY 17K MILES HAD ITS HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP REPLACED BY ONTARIO BMW DEALER. THE CAR LOST ALL POWER, LOCKING BRAKES, NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE WHILE TRAVELING, RIGHT WHEN EXITING THE FREEWAY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN SHAKING AND SPUTTERING. LOST ALL POWER AND WOULDN'T MOVE. TODAY, 9/14 EXACTLY THREE WEEKS AFTER THE REPAIR WAS DONE BY THE ONTARIO BMW, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF 4 LANE HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC ON THE 405 FWY , IT HAPPENED AGAIN. MY CAR BECAME WEAKER IN POWER UNTIL IT LOST ALL POWER AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE. "DRIVE TRAIN MALFUNCTION" MESSAGE APPEAR AGAIN. I MANAGED TO SAFELY PULL TO THE SHOULDER AFT
