I purchased my BMW 2016 in October of 2024. The BMW had 109,000 when I purchased it. It now has 112,000, I drove it twice to Dallas, Texas and only occasionally on the weekends, but has been garage kept most of the time since I purchased it from Dodge Bluebonnet Motors, 547 S. Sequin Ave, New Braunfels, Texas 78130, 830-606-8500, Soon after I purchased it, i started to hear a knocking underneath the car, I took the car to ProTech for service and the mechanic that specializes in foreign vehicles informed me that the BMW had major front end damage. When I purchased the vehicle from Bluebonnet they did inform me that there was minor collision to the BMW not major. The mechanic stated the BMW would be categorized as a Lemon. I want to return the vehicle and get refunded all of my payments that I have applied for resolution.
