What owners report
I am writing to formally escalate the ongoing mechanical issues with my 2026 BMW X2, which I purchased approximately one year ago from BMW of Norwood. Since less than a month after purchasing this vehicle, I have experienced recurring fuel-system-related vibrations, excessive rattling, and a check-engine light. Despite numerous visits to the dealership, repeated complaints, and ongoing communication with the service department, this issue remains unresolved.

Enterprise rental regional manager Amber Backman is allowing staff to release vehicles after having criminal damage to them and even on the release paperwork she allows techs to send it clearly states Windshield star and all her workers think that it is ok and "normal" to do these things. I repeatedly attempted to redirect staff and they are selling DW/CDW as insurance and making customer provide them PII over the phone or else they have to bring it in for them to inspect.

I experienced multiple unintended gear changes while stopped in traffic in a 2026 BMW X2 xDrive28i (~11,800 miles, rental vehicle, prior usage unknown). The vehicle uses a small electronic toggle gear selector located immediately adjacent to the cupholders. Incident 1: While stopped with my foot on the brake, the engine shut off due to auto start/stop. When I released the brake, the engine restarted but the vehicle did not move forward and instead revved slightly. I immediately pulled the selector back and the vehicle resumed normal forward movement. I did not intentionally shift gears and believe the vehicle had unintentionally shifted into Neutral. Incident 2: While stopped with my foot
