Vehicle stalls when accelerating from a stopped position. Several time, while stopped at an intersection with crossing traffic, I attempted to drive through the intersection but the car failed to accelerate. I tried shifting from auto to manual but the car still failed to accelerate for at least 5 seconds at which time it jolted forward. The issue started at around the 50K mile mark 3 years ago and continues still today (~90K miles). I am not seeing my vehicle listed under recalls related to loss of electrical power/stalling from 2/7/2013 and have not had any recall notifications related to my car since 2017. I have been attempting to resolve a constant problem with cracking sounds from front suspension when turning. To date, I have had the entire front suspension rebuilt including; control arm assy, sway bar assy, bearing, struts, and U-joints. I am still experiencing this problem, especially during colder weather days. Now I am learning that there is a recall from 8/1/2020 related to my car model but my VIN is not included. NHTSA id number: 10179812 manufacturer communication number: B310112. Summary cracking noises from the frontaxle area while turning the wheels, when station: Cracking noises are heard from the front axle area while maneuvering at low speeds (e.g., parking lot maneuvers) or when turning the steering wheel while stationary.

Vehicle stalls when more than 1/8 throttle is applied, vehicle has difficulty starting. Check engine light comes on when applying small throttle inputs. The 4 previous years of this vehicle make and model, the high pressure fuel pump has had a known problem which resulted in a class action lawsuit that adjusted the warranty period for the four previous model years up to 120K miles. BMW made slight changes to the engine for the next model years, but left the exact same part that resulted in the original lawsuit settlement. That part is the point that failed on my vehicle. Should the warranty extension they agreed to in the settlement apply to all makes and models BMW made with the same defective part? this problem caused my wife to be stranded in the middle of the freeway and had to be towed out of the lanes of traffic.

Vehicle almost stalls when accelerating from a stop. Vehicle will also surge forward when vehicle comes to a stop. Both issues are worsened when the temperature is warm outside and the air conditioning is on. Have taken vehicle to the BMW dealer several times to correct, but they never find anything wrong.

I was stopped at a traffic light so when the light turned green for the left turn I turned onto the middle lane of a 6 lane highway and started to accelerate when suddenly there was a vibration and the suspension light came on so I slowed down and moved to the far right lane where I noticed I had no acceleration. I limped into a parking lot and the car seemed to be vibrating and running rough so I shut it down and walked home. After towing it to BMW of daytona I got the news that I blew a charge pipe. They said the charge pipe is made of plastic and got brittle over time and blew off the throttle body. I found numerous remarks of others that had that problem when I googled it. Many of them stated they had it replaced with an aluminum charge pipe so I called BMW back and ask them what they were replacing it with plastic or aluminum. They stated that it was the same plastic part I had on the car in the first place. So I said great then we can expect it to happen again. Many comments online suggested this should be a recall item. One can imagine pulling out in front of a truck and suddenly loosing acceleration. The real kicker is BMW replacing it with a known faulty part.

I have brought my car into schomp BMW twice for this issue, the latest being last week telling them I believe there is a recall for my vehicle and it feels as if it will stall as I am turning a corner or stopped and begin accelerating. They showed no recall and hooked my car up to computer and no codes came back with any issues. I am really scared that my car will stall in the middle of turning in front of traffic. It has hesitated to where I have had to press the accelerator to the floor to get the car to move. I am afraid for my safety and for the safety of others. I received the official recall notice in the mail Wednesday and called schomp and told them I want it repaired immediately if that is the issue. They told me they don't have parts and that I will receive another notice and that I have to wait. I am nervous that something will happen and someone will be injured. What can I do for now?
