The contact owns a 2007 BMW 525I. Whenever the contact places a cooler or anything that would possibly leak through the carpet in the trunk of the vehicle, the liquid builds up in the tire base where the main wiring for the electrical module is located. The failure eventually causes the wires to short circuit. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not serviced. The current mileage was 5,918 and failure mileage was 5,718.
