REPAIRING THE TWIN-TURBO IN MY CAR AGAIN IN LESS THAN A YEAR. LAST YEAR THE HOSES WERE ALL REPLACED THIS YEAR THE DEALER SAYS ONE OF THE TWO TURBO UNITS IN THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED (SMALLER ONE). THE CAR IS DOING THE SAME THING IT DID LAST YEAR LOSING POWER AND MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN TRAFFIC. IF I AM AT A LIGHT, IT TAKES ABOUT HALF A BLOCK FOR IT TO ACCELERATE TO NORMAL SPEED. I ENDED UP HAVING THE CARE TOWED TO THE BMW DEALER BECAUSE IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IN TRAFFIC. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, THE TURBO HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM IN THE X5D. THE CAR IS JUST UNDER 85,000 ORIGINAL MILES AND SINCE I PURCHASED TWO YEARS AGO, HAVE LOGGED LESS THAN 20,000 MILES. .

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD AN OPEN RECALL 18V-336 SINCE MAY OF 2018 . THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER HAS YET TO PROVIDE A REMEDY TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE. WHEN WILL A REMEDY BE PROVIDED? IT SEEM ALMOST A YEAR WOULD BE ENOUGH TIME TO FIX THIS DEFECT .
