I received notice of a potential airbag recall for my car. When I went to airbagrecall.com website and entered my car info. I was given 2 recalls (not the airbag) that were issues in October. (pvc valve heater; blower motor wiring) it has already been 3 months since the recalls were issues and when I called to schedule an appt to have them resolved. I was told parts would not be available for 2-6 months. I consider 5-9 months to get safety issues on my car resolved unreasonable. The manufacturer obviously knew about the problem before the recall was even issued. They have had ample time to identify the quantity needed and ramp up production!

Takata recall the first complaint is that I am afraid to drive or allow anyone to drive a car with this airbag recall which has in some cases resulted in serious injuries or death. The car is thus parked in the garage while the dealer tells me they can't get the car in for repairs for 6 weeks at least which is unacceptable. Secondly, there are two additiona recalls that have no "fix" at this point which could also result in serious injury or death. I am at a loss for what to do with this vehicle. It is a hazard and completely useless for the purpose for which it was intended. The two additional recalls are both fire hazards and are not correctable at this juncture. This is unacceptable.

On November 19, 2017, I was traveled from nyc to lowell, MA. The car experienced of excessive vibration and raddling noise from right front passenger side. I investigated the raddling and vibration issue found that front right engine mount bolts all three bolts snapped without warning. The bolts found to be an aluminum bolts. I believe this bolts should not be an aluminum, because there are a lot of force in this location. I believe an engine mounts should not be allowed with aluminum. I could of getting kill if not knowing to look for and the car could crush since one side of the engine bolts snapped. This is a serious safety concern.

Vehicle completely shut down while driving on the ramp to enter a highway and service engine soon light came up. The engine has only 42000 miles. Took it to BMW and was told that the vanos system needs to be repaired because the bolts probably came off. A recall is in place for exactly the same issue for other 3 series, but my VIN is not included in the recall and BMW is not covering the repair. What is the process for a vehicle to be included on a recall given that is the exact same issue?

Power steering pulley comes into contact of axle carrier, it's a clear design flaw and this car hasn't had much research and development done, the company knowingly put an unsafe beta car on the market. My belt broke because of the pulley to frame contact and stalled on the 405 freeway and ended up getting injured when the car was rear ended at 60mph. There is a service bulletin within BMW's system describing this issue and they want consumers to pay out of pocket for repairs. I spoke to corporate and they have given me the cold shoulder so far. My mission is to get this escalated to a recall before someone gets seriously hurt.

I went in to have a routine oil change and was told to have a brake flush by the dealership. After leaving dealership I started experiencing problems with steering and brakes. They informed me to bring car back in to rectify the issue. As I was driving on the highway the brake system on the vehicle completely failed and the car has now become inoperable. They are refusing to fix it stating that the issue has nothing to do with the oil change and brake flush but would most likely be a persistent valve issues with this car. The car has two recalls in the past week and yet the dealership refuses to do anything about it. This car is unsafe to drive as I almost got into an accident on md 495 heading toward silver spring. I have tried to work directly with BMW of silver spring and BMW of North America and they are refusing to address the issue.

Service center "otto's" in West chester, pa still has not received the parts going on 2yrs. * 2nd complaint engine shut off while driving (55mph) on a busy interstate highway during heavy traffic with no warning the engine just shut off- no power!. it was a humid summer (July) morning BMW fault could have killed many, a very dangerous public safety hazard. I was stranded for hours unable to drive BMW. *adding insult to injury the high humidity could have set-off the airbag fault unresolved by BMW 18 months & counting. Otto's service center wanted almost $4K to repair plus an additional hefty sum under advisement for repairs to repair the work they completed less than a year ago (>$3K) for engine leaking oil - car over-heating
