2007 BMW X5 Sav Owner Complaints

MY VEHICLE HAS THE COMMONLY AND POPULARLY KNOWN WEEP HOLE COOLANT LEAK. APPARENTLY, BMW HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM IN PREVIOUS YEAR MODEL CARS, DATING BACK TO 2002. THEY HAVE KNOWN THAT THIS WAS A FLAW IN THEIR DESIGN. HOWEVER, THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALLS ON THE REPAIR OF THIS ISSUE, WHICH COSTS OWNERS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR LABOR ALONE FOR A RATHER 'INEXPENSIVE' PART. IT WOULD ONLY BE FAIR FOR BMW TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS COMMONLY KNOWN ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO AFFECT HUNDREDS OF OWNERS OF BMWS WITH THE SAME ENGINES. THE COOLANT LEAKS ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE ENGINE THROUGH A RANDOM HOLE AROUND THE ENGINE. IT IS A RATHER COSTLY FIX DUE TO SEVERAL COMPONENTS NEEDING TO BE REMOVED BEFORE ONE CAN GET TO THE BROKEN PART TO BE REPLACED. IT IS UNFAIR FOR CURRENT OWNERS TO HAVE TO PAY SIGNIFICANTLY FOR A CAR THAT HAS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW. VERY UNHAPPY WITH THIS CURRENT UNFORTUNATE DISCOVERY. MY CAR SUDDENLY LEAKED ALL THE COOLANT OUT OF THE CAR AND INTO THE ROAD AND MY DRIVEWAY. THANKFULLY I WAS ALMOST HOME WHEN IT BROKE DOWN. I COULD HAVE BEEN IN THE FREEWAY OR ON THE STREET AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A RISK OF GETTING HIT BY OTHER CARS IF MY CAR JUST SUDDENLY STALLED. AND I WAS DRIVING WITH BABY ON BOARD! I SUGGEST THIS BE INVESTIGATED, AS IT'S AN ISSUE THAT'S APPARENTLY VERY COMMON IN THE N62 ENGINES.

I'M GETTING WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASH STATING MY TAILLIGHTS ARE OUT. I CHECKED BOTH TAILLIGHTS AND THE HOUSING THAT HOLDS THE BULBS ARE MELTED THROUGH. THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT CAUSES THE BULBS TO OVERHEAT POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A FIRE. THIS HAPPENS IN PARK OR DRIVE. THE TAILLIGHTS WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED AND SOME TYPE OF CODING OR RESISTER WILL NEED TO BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT THEM FROM OVERHEATING AGAIN

TAKATA RECALL I WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE INTERSTATE GOING DOWNWARD ON THE RAMP WITH MY 2007 X5. MY TIRE BLEW OFF THE RIM CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL AND EVENTUALLY STRIKE THE SIDE WALL. WAS WEARING SEAT BELT DURING ACCIDENT,SEAT BELT DID NOT RESTRAIN ME AND HEAD HIT WINDSHIELD. DEBRIS FROM AIRBAG IN STEERING WHEEL CUT ME IN VARIOUS PLACES. NOT ALL OF MY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, ONLY STEERING WHEEL AND CURTAIN. SECOND ACCIDENT WITH A BMW TRUCK WHERE EITHER ONLY A FEW DEPLOYED OR NONE AT ALL. THIS ISSUE REALLY CAUSED A SAFETY CONCERN WITH ME BECAUSE I WAS PREGNANT AT THE TIME OF ACCIDENT AND WASN'T FULLY PROTECTED AT ALL. BMW ARE TOO GOOD OF CARS FOR THIS MAJOR FLAW. ALSO, I CONTACTED BMW AROUND DECEMBER 2015 IN REFERENCE TO RECALL AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD CALL WHEN THE PART CAME IN. CONTACTED THEM MULTIPLE TIMES AFTERWARDS AND WAS TOLD BMW STILL HASN'T SENT PART OUT. ...UPDATED 06/13/17 *BF UPDATED 09/19/217*JS

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES DSC AND AWD AND 4X4 MALFUNCTION WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE ERROR OCCURS WITH GAS PEDAL DEPRESSED, CAR WILL HESITATE BY GOING INTO NEUTRAL AND JUMPING BACK INTO DRIVE ACCOMPANIED BY ENGINE REVVING UP TO ABOVE 3000 RPM. WHEN THE ERROR OCCURS AND THE GAS IS NOT DEPRESSED, CAR WILL GO INTO NEUTRAL AND COAST, UNTIL I ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION. IF THE CAR IS TRAVELING LESS THAN 5 MPH AND THE ERROR OCCURS, THEN THE CAR JERKS TO A HALT AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SWITCHED INTO PARK AUTOMATICALLY. THIS TYPICALLY HAPPENED IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. HAD DEALER DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, PRESUMED IT WAS DUE TO STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEEDING TO BE REINITIALIZED, BUT THE ERROR STILL OCCURRED. OFTEN TIMES, WHEN I START MY CAR AND THE ERROR OCCURS PRIOR TO BE EVEN SELECTING A GEAR.

I HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT THAT ANOTHER OWNER MADE UNDER NHTSA ID NUMBER 10483182. THE PLASTIC ROCKER SWITCH FOR THE ELECTROMECHANICAL PARKING/EMERGENCY BRAKE BROKE DURING THE COURSE OF NORMAL ACTUATION AND REQUIRED THE ENTIRE "EMF SWITCH" ASSEMBLY TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO RESUME OPERATION OF THE PARKING/EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS SWITCH APPEARS TO HAVE A DURABILITY ISSUE WHICH COULD CAUSE A VEHICLE TO BE STUCK WITH THE BRAKE SET ON OR UNABLE TO SET THE BRAKE WHEN NEEDED. WHEN I INQUIRED ABOUT ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THE SWITCH DESIGN THAT MIGHT ADDRESS THE MATTER GOING FORWARD I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE IN THE DESIGN OF THE REPLACEMENT PART. IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS PART REMAINS APT TO FAIL PREMATURELY AND SUDDENLY. *TR

I HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT THAT ANOTHER OWNER MADE UNDER NHTSA ID NUMBER 10621394, PERTAINING TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V564000. IN MY CASE A REPAIR SHOP HAS INDICATED THAT MY VEHICLE'S FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT DETECTION MAT IS DEFECTIVE AND PROBABLY SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY THE RECALL ONLY LISTS THE 2006 BMW X5 AS HAVING THE DEFECTIVE PART. I BELIEVE THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO INCLUDE THE 2007 BMW X5. *TR

IT WAS 9:57A.M. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH 2014, STARTED DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AND NOTICED THAT THE WHOLE DRIVE TRAIN WOULD SLIGHTLY JERK WHILE DRIVING AND APPLYING 15-25% OF LOAD, (I BOUGHT A VEHICLE TWO MONTHS AGO, AND FROM THE FIRST DAY - ON COLD - IT WOULD MAKE THE SAME SYMPTOM FOR COUPLE OF FIRST 500-700 YARDS, AFTER COUPLE OF STOPS AND GOES, VEHICLE HEATS UP TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD DRIVE NORMALLY.) AT 10:20A.M, SAME SATURDAY, I MADE A FULL STOP ON A STOP SIGN TURNING RIGHT TO A MAIN STREET. AS MOST OF THE TRAFFIC WAS DRIVING ON THE MAIN STREET, I WAITED FOR THE FAST PAS PACED TRAFFIC TO PASS BY, I TRIED TO ENTER THE MAIN STREET BY ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE. SO I APPLIED APPROX. 20-25% LOAD, IT WAS 5MPH WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO ALIGN STEERING WHEEL TO ZERO DEGREES CENTER, I HEARD AND FELT REAR SUSPENSION FREEZING UP, CLICKING AND CHATTERING WITH LOUD GRINDING SOUND (SOUNDED LIKE THE AXLE FELL OUT) ENGINE RPM WOULD INCREASE TO 3,000RPM BUT VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, AND SOMETHING IN THE REAR WAS STILL GRINDING WHEN TRANSMISSION WAS IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE CURB, BLOCKING RIGHT LANE. VEHICLE HAD NO TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHTS OR ERROR MESSAGES ON CLUSTER. I DID TOWED THE VEHICLE TO MY BMW TECHNICIAN, AND HE TOLD ME THAT I NEED REAR DIFFERENTIAL, REASON INTERNAL FAILURE, I TOLD TECHNICIAN TO MAKE NOTES OF ANYTHING UNUSUAL WHILE TAKING REAR DIFFERENTIAL OUT OF THE VEHICLE. TECHNICIAN NOTED THAT REAR DIFFERENTIAL FLUID WAS RIGHT AT ITS LEVEL AND NO LEAKS OR EVEN SEEPAGE WAS NOT NOTICEABLE (I OWNED MANY BMWS WELL OVER 200K MILES ON THE CLUSTER, AND HAD NO ISSUES WITH REAR DIFFERENTIALS.) LINK TO ONE OF THE YOUTUBE VIDEOS ABOUT E70 X5 REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURES HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=AF_7IANXMSI IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT THIS? *TR

IN REGARD TO NHTSA 13V-564, MY 2007 BMW X5 HAS THE SAME FRONT PASSENGER SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE ISSUE. A WARNING LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME I START THE CAR THAT SAYS SEAT BELT MALFUNCTION OR SEATBELT TENSION SENSOR MALFUNCTION. THIS MUST BE A DEFECT, AS I HAVE LESS THAT 40,000 MILES AND HARDLY EVER HAVE A PASSENGER. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN DECEMBER 2013 AND REFERENCES UP TO 2006 BMW X5S AS HAVING THE DEFECTIVE PART. CAN YOU PLEASE EXTEND THIS RECALL TO INCLUDE 2007 BMW X5S? IF YOU WOULD LIKE OR NEED ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANK YOU. *TR

RECURRING "PARKING BRAKE MALFUNCTIONS" SINCE SUMMER 2012 WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IT LEADS TO FAILURE TO ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE WHEN VEHICLE IS PUT IN PARK INCREASING RISK OF "ROLLING" AND IN SEVERAL INCIDENTS RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE WHEN PLACED INTO DRIVE REQUIRING MANUAL RELEASE OF PARKING BRAKE AND LATER "REPAIR" BY BMW SERVICE CENTER WITH NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM . THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN INCREASING OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. *TR
