2013 BMW X6 Problems

TAKATA RECALL

BMW DEALERSHIP IN GEORGIA, TBILISI IS LIAR. I VISITED THEM FOR CUSTOMER CAR PACKAGE. UNDER THIS CCP MUST BE REPLACED SOME PARTS WITHOUT CHECKING AND SOME OF THEM AFTER CHECKING. THAT DEALERSHIP CHAMGED ME ONLY AIR MASS SENSORS WHEN BMW AG STATES THAT VENT PIPE BANK 1 AND 2, CONNECTING LINE BANK 1 AND 2, AOR MASS SENSORS, INTAKE AIR DUCT MUST BE REPLACED ON EVERY N63S. INJECTORS, VACUUM PUMP, CHAIN AND SOME ORHER PARTS MUST BE REPLACED AFTER CHECKING IF THEY ARE FAULTY. THAT DEALERSHIP LIED ME THAT THEY RECEIVED NEW DOCUMENTATIONS FROM BMW AND ONLY AIR MASS SENNSORS MUST BE CHANGED. THEY ARE LIARS. MY CAR IS UNDER BURNING RISK BECAUSE THEY CHANGED ONLY AIR MASS SENSORS AND DID NOT PERFORMED THE CCP PROPERLY. THEY DID NOT CHECK MY TIMING CHAIN TOO. MY CONTACT NUMBER +995 591227222

While driving on the highway, the warning “engine power reduced” came on and the car just started slowing to a complete stop. Smoke started coming from the engine and the rear, then came to a complete stop and has not started again. Was towed from the highway to a safe location and I was told by mechanic that it was leaking all engine oil and power steering fluid

ISSUES: BOTH FRONT THRUST ARM BUSHINGS WORN, OIL LEAKING FROM VEHICLE, REPLACEMENT OF MICROFILTER NEEDED, BRAKE FLUID FLUSH SERVICE AND SUNROOF NOT INITIALIZED. COMMENTS: I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO BE SERVICED AS I WAS GETTING A DRIVER STABILITY MALFUNCTION ERROR AND WHEN DRIVING OVER POTHOLES OR ANY UNEVEN STREET/HIGHWAY, WHEEL WOULD JERK EXTREMELY HARD CAUSING ME TO ENTER OTHER LANES. VEHICLE WAS PULLING HARD AND I HEARD NOISE EVERY TIME I DROVE OVER UNEVEN ROADS. I WAS ALSO GETTING AN ANTI-TRAP MALFUNCTION FOR SUNROOF ERROR MESSAGE. ISSUES: VEHICLE SPUTTERED, SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND WOULD NOT START, VEHICLE STILL PULLING AND NEEDED TO REPLACE THE TWO FRONT TIRES. COMMENTS: DUE TO THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONING, SPUTTERING AND NOT STARTING, I WAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT. OTHER MOTORISTS HELPED PUSH THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GET ME OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ISSUES: 2ND OCCURRENCE: FAULTY FUEL PUMP AND EKPS (< ONE MONTH AFTER FIRST REPAIR). VEHICLE NEEDED RIGHT FRONT TIRE REPLACED. COMMENTS: UPON DRIVING MY VEHICLE ONTO THE DEALERSHIP LOT TO HAVE MY TIRE REPLACED, AS SOON AS THE TECHNICIAN GOT IN THE VEHICLE, IT STALLED AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. ISSUE: 2ND OCCURRENCE: LEFT FRONT THRUST ARM BALL JOINT LOOSE CAUSING CLUNK IN FRONT END. ISSUE: 3RD OCCURRENCE: LEFT LOWER CONTROL ARM BENT. WHEEL ALIGNMENT NEEDED DUE TO BENT CONTROL ARM. COMMENTS: MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH OUR CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND THE TIRE AND STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO JERK. THE STEERING WHEEL HAD TO BE TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT FOR THE VEHICLE TO GO STRAIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. THESE ISSUES PUT MY FAMILY IN DANGER AND COULD HAVE SEVERELY CAUSED MY FAMILY HARM AND/OR HARM TO OTHER VEHICLES.

DUE TO AN ISSUE WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP, POWER STEERING FLUID IS LEAKING ALL AROUND THE GEAR AND CHECKED MY VIN AND IS NOT ON THE RECALL. IT IS VERY UNLIKELY THAT A 3 TO 4 YEAR OLD VEHICLE MAY HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS 2013 BMW X6 STEERING NHTSA CAMPAIGN #12V267000 AND NOT BE PART OF THIS CAMPAIGN. I AM VERY CONCERNED AND WOULD LIKE FOR AN INVESTIGATION TO BE DONE.

UPON ON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND DROPPING INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON ITS ON , THE THE TACHOMETER JUMPS TO 1000 AND EVEN UP TO 1500 WITHOUT TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR. I HAVE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE THREE TIME TO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY COULD FIX THE ISSUE. I HAVE ALMOST COLLIDED WITH MULTIPLE VEHICLES IN PARKING LOTS AND ALMOST RAN INTO OUR BUILDING, I HAVE TO STEP ON THE BREAK VERY HARD TO REDUCE THE CAR LUNGING FORWARD, THE CAR STILL TRAVELS WITH MY BRAKE ON, IF THERE WERE A CHILD OR PERSON IN FRONT OF ME THEY WOULD BE INJURED SEVERELY, THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE VIDEO OF THE TACHOMETER GOING FROM 0-1000 ALMOST COMING TO A STALL, IT HAS STALLED TWO TIMES IN THE PAST.

WATER PUMP ISSUES, DEALER SUPPOSENLY FIXED MONTHS AGO. CAR IS LIKE NEW WITH 40K + MILES AND ALREADY WATER PUMP REPLACED. THEN NOTICED SMOKE & BURNING SMELL LIKE POSSIBLE FIRE FROM ENGINE AREA A WEEK AGO WHILE CAR IN IDLE, I THEN TOOK IT TO DEALER NEXT DAY AND SOMETHING WASNT REPLACED BY DEALER DURING WATER PUMP EXCHANGE/REPLACEMENT. I THINK IS A LIE, I CERTAINLY THINK VEHICHLE HAVE THAT STEERING ISSUE. ALSO PASSENGER DOOR FROM INSIDE DIDNT OPEN ANYMORE WHICH IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. BUT CAR LIKE I SAID IS LIKE NEW TO ME FOR IT TO BE 3 YEARS OLD WITH 40K MILES. JUST MAJOR FAULTS FOR SUCH AGE OF CAR. BAD BMW MAKER FOR PRICEY CAR AND SO MANY ENGINE / ELECTRICAL ISSUE ISSUES. I SEE WHY NOT MANY ON US ROADS. 12/2015 SOMETHING IN WATER PUMP AREA REPLACED AGIAN, DRIVER PASSENGER DOOR FROM INSIDE DIDNT OPEN ANYMORE, FRONT CAMERAS DIDNT OPERATE ANYMORE/CORRODED SUPPOSENLY, COOLANT WAS GONE (BUT WATER PUMP REPLACED 2014) SO EITHER LEAK OR DEALER WAS CHEAP PUTTING BACK IN, NOW SINCE ALL THESE REPAIRS CAR DRIVES ROUGH. AND YES ALL WAS DONE ON 1 VISIT AT DEALER. AND I FORGOT TO MENTION TO THEM MY SEATBELT LOCKS ON ME SO I DRIVE WITH IT CLAMP ALREADY AND JUST DUCK UNDERNEATH STRAP WHEN READY TO DRIVE. WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN ON ITS OWN (STATE POLICE WITNESS TO THAT)
