As the vehicle was approaching a stop sign, the car accelerated on its own and I was unable to stop using the brakes. The car went off the road and hit a tree causing severe damage to the car. The malfunction was reported to BMW and we have insisted (on several occasions) a report upon their inspection of the car - have not received anything to date. Instead they offered a nominal sum to release them from any liability associated with the incident. The car was still under factory warranty at the time of the malfunction.

BMW X5M50D when it is raining (highway speed) and I use the brakes the car is turning left. Horrible feeling, I almost had a crash twice with my family because you lose steering control when you want to keep it straight...normal conditions the car is braking perfectly...BMW dealer assembled some brake drying system but it is the same. I am afraid more cars are affected. The situation is more dangerous the strongest you brake and also depends on the rain density.
