This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
(1) in everyday driving, I heard a creaking noise in the rear end of my 1999 BMW 328I. (2) I found that the left rear subframe has started to shear away from the chassis making the car only drivable for only short distances, if at all. (3) I brought it to the dealer to see if they would cover the cost of repair as a goodwill gesture and they said no. I then appealed to BMW North America and they sent out a body technician who also denied the repair. The car was approx. One year and 10000 miles over warranty. No parts were replaced nor any repairs made. This is a defect in the workmanship of the car and it is documented on the web forum www.bimmer.roadfly.org.
