I purchased this car in June of 2019. I received a carfax report before the purchase. The car was very clean inside and outside. I was pleased with th car until it started smoking every time the engine got warm. I had to keep adding oil almost every two to three days. Every time I stopped, for traffic, red light or started from a stop position blue smoke would come from exhaust and there is a horrible smell of burnt oil and antifreeze. My car progressively got worst until white smoke steam would come from under the hood and every time I drov E short distances I would have to add engine coolant. Before this happened, I had to have an oil changed and a checkup at the BMW dealership in April, (the car was smoking and smelling like engine coolant. I was informed then that there had been an lawsuit against BMW for not advising the owners of certain models and engines would have the above mentioned problem. I was told if I had brought my car in before Feb. 2020, I would be eligible for the benefits entitled to owners of this engine. But because I didn't bring my car in, time had expired. I also learned that there was a recall on my car which parts had to be ordered for and were later added to my vehicle by the dealership. I was not notified about the lawsuit relating to the engine problems by the selling shea used cars, formally patsy lou, mega lot or grand blanc motorsports (BMW dealership) that informed in April about the lawsuit. If I had been notified regarding my car I would responded appropriately. Now to properly fix my car I need $15,227.38. I am of course now paying for a car that I can't enjoy because of this issued. Any and all help would be appreciated.

My car doors are locked and can't be opened at all! in the past, I've been locked inside the car and couldn't get out unless I stop the car, turn it off, roll down my driver side window, and stick the key in the driver side door, and manually turn it to unlock it. Now my doors will not open at all. Manually or electronically. None of them. This is very dangerous and should be considered a safety hazard. I have a seven year old son that rides with me in my car all the time. These vehicles need to be recalled and taken off of the streets for good. They're are potential death traps!

Just had a new factory engine put in my 2010 BMW 750li under a class action lawsuit, in August 2019. December 2019 wife was driving car to grocery store and engine suddenly started bucking and smell of gas was overwhelming. She was in traffic at the time and could not maintain proper speed on the 50mph highway and lost total power. She nursed car into a nearby parking lot. It was snowing out and had to wait for a tow truck for an hour in freezing temperatures. Aside from the overwhelming fuel smell, almost caused accident by not being able to maintain proper speed, she was waiting in freezing temperatures for tow truck. This, I found out, is a very big problem with these cars. Its was a fuel injector that caused the issue. This is truely a safety hazard for the public. And an extremely expensive fix. BMW has many complaints about the fuel injectors, but seem to ignore the issue and profit heavily from the customers loss. Please do something about this issue.

After I diagnosed a parasitic battery draw when the car has been off overnight. I found the auxillary water pump for the intercoolers still running drawing 5 amps when the car is off. This is the same exact issue I found with the recall 18V-248 I'm quite lucky my car didn't catch on fire yet.

At 57,000 miles, my 2010 BMW 750li needed 6 out of 8 fuel injectors replaced. The fuel injectors for the N63 engine platform have been redesigned multiple times due to a high rate of part failure. The parts were poorly designed, and are failing prematurely on vehicles. BMW refuses to acknowledge the faulty fuel injectors and should properly issue a recall.

I was driving a BMW 750li 2010 on the freeway 70mph. Without warning, the engine stopped and the entire electrical system went off. I steered the car quickly to the shoulder. I only had enough momentum to pull my car to the side of the road. All systems were non responsive. I was unable to place the car in neutral for the tow truck. I was unable to call for assistance via the vehicles call system. I would have to assume that all the systems active safety equipment were useless since I had no power.
