I purchased a new BMW i7 xDrive60 at the end of December 2023. There have been numerous software issues since I purchased the vehicle. Yesterday while driving at low speed, a car in front of me at a stop light slammed on brakes. I attempted to depress the brake but it was too late. My car collided with the vehicle in front. I did not initially see the driver ahead of me stop as I was looking to the side for oncoming traffic. All of the ADAS systems are activated in my vehicle and set to the most sensitive settings including the autonomous emerg…
Brand new car bought in Nov 2023. On February 12, 2024, this Recall Campaign No. 24V-104: Integrated Brake (IB) Module came out - albeit with no remedy. It is now Jun 22nd - 4 months later - and there is still no remedy. I am adversely affected in the following ways: - I have been unable to drive the defective vehicle for over 4 months now - I have been unable to purchase the vehicle out of the lease as they won't provide a payoff-quote with an open recall - I am unable to re-sell the vehicle with the open recall. 4 months is an unaccepta…
On 2023 BMW i7 while I was trying to park in a parking stall moving forwards at a very low speed in a shopping center( less than a 1 m/h) . The car suddenly and very aggressively took off and accelerate on me while I was straightening the steering wheel to pull more forwards, heading another parked car in front it, head to head and pushed/ slid the parked car about 20 feet. I have no idea if any button was pushed or activated with my palm while steering to park. No signs or indicator or sensor warned before accident and nothing after accident.…
The car warning flashes “drivetrain fault”. Then after about 5 seconds the car put itself into neutral and started to slow down. I pulled off to the side of the highway before it stopped on its own . I was not able to start the car back up. I got it towed to the dealership . I am told that the AC compressor failure to the high voltage battery system , shut down the system . Seems very dangerous to do that while I was driving on the highway !

Last week while driving, one of the front corners level suddenly went down in the middle of the road. Car was towed to the dealership. After it was inspected by BMW dealership I was informed that there is a suspension damage and one tire rim damage " due to impact" and either the car hit something or had pothole incident. I did not run or hit any object and did not drive over major potholes. So the estimate for repair of the right front air spring strut, graphed alignment and right front rim replacement was for 8200$. The car is 3 months ol…
I have now experienced multiple instances where the vehicle suddenly brakes on its own while driving at normal speeds, without any obstruction or hazard ahead. This is not only unacceptable , it's extremely dangerous, putting both myself and other drivers at risk of serious injury. Despite bringing the vehicle in twice to the dealership, the issue persists. I continue to receive dashboard malfunction alerts, and the automatic braking problem has not been resolved. Each time, I am left without a vehicle, impacting my ability to work. I did not p…
