WHILE DRIVING ON THE ON THE FREEWAY I FELT AND HEARD A POPPING OR CLUNCK NOISE WHILE SHIFTING LIKE SOMETHING WAS GOING TO FALL OFF AND IT BECAME HARD TO CONTROL AND STEER SO I TOOK MY 2000 328I BMW INTO A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC AND HE SAID THE PROBLEM IS THE SUBFRAME IS SEPARATING FROM THE BODY OF THE CAR, I WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I LOOKED UP ONLINE AND THIS EXACT SAME THING IS HAPPENING TO OTHER MODELS OF THE BMW , I DONT DRIVE MY CAR HARD AND IT IS WELL MAINTAINED AND I BELIEVE BMW SHOULD RECALL THIS FACTORY ERROR AND PAY FOR IT

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS HIT BY A DRIVER GOING APPROX 100MPH ON HIGHWAY 50E FROM BEHIND AND AFTER BEING SEVERALLY HIT MY TEKATA AIRBAG DAMAGED MY CHEST, HURT MY FACE, BURNED MY CLOTHES, ARMS, AND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO BREATHE. THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED IF BMW HAD MORE AVAILABILITY TO INFORM, REPLACE AND FIX SUCH A HORRIFIC EVENT.
