2014 Bmw 335i Complaints

REAR TAIL LIGHT CONNECTORS MELT JUST LIKE A RECALL OF PREVIOUS 3-SERIES BMW'S. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 11V438000. GETTING NOTIFICATION OF BLINKER FAILURE, DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME THAT THE CONNECTOR HAD MELTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE. THE LIGHT BULBS ARE STOCK AND HAVE NEVER BEEN REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 BMW 335I. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE MALFUNCTIONED AND THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,800.

DRIVING ON 4 LANE ROAD AT 40MPH WHEN 2104 BMW 335I XDRIVE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED TOTAL FAILURE-STARTING WITH THE NAVIGATION SCREEN THEN THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WENT BLACK AND ENGINE SHUTDOWN (ALL IN FEW SECONDS). THERE WAS NO SHOULDER (CONCRETE CURB) SO VEHICLE CAME TO STOP IN THE RIGHT LANE. HEADLIGHTS WERE "STUCK" ON BUT NOTHING ELSE WORKED INCLUDING THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS! CONTACTED BMW ASSIST BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO HELP BUT SENT OUT POLICE AND TOW TRUCK. CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND WAS DRAGGED ONTO A FLATBED DAMAGING THE VEHICLE. THIS WAS EXTREMELY FRIGHTENING! WE COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED AS CARS WERE BEARING DOWN ON US THEN SWERVING AS WE COULD NOT WARN THEM WITHOUT EMERGENCY FLASHERS. BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED/KILLED, THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED STARTING WITH WHY DOES THIS VEHICLE NOT "FAIL-SAFE"?--I.E., WHERE THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS WORK AND TRANSMISSION CAN BE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL? THANK YOU!! *TR

WAS DRIVING IN RAIN, STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WITH START/STOP ENABLED AND IN STANDBY MODE. WHEN SIGNAL TURNED GREEN VEHICLE STRUGGLED TO COME TO LIFE AND STALLED WITH MESSAGE ON I-DRIVE SAYING DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION AND AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS TO BRING THE ENGINE BACK TO LIFE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND PULL OVER TO THE CURB AFTER WHICH THE ENGINE WOULD STILL STRUGGLE TO IDLE AND TRANSMISSION REFUSED TO ENGAGE DRIVE MODE. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE BMW SERVICE CENTER AND THEY SAID THE LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND REPLACED IT AND CLAIM THE ISSUE IS FIXED. *TR

SUDDEN AND COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING/MOVING (BRAND NEW 335I 2014). HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP MALFUNCTIONED(COMPLETE FAILURE) WHILE MERGING ON TO LANE AT BUSY AIRPORT GATE RAMP. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) OR PARTIAL LOSS OF POWER BUT, I DID GET A TOTAL AND COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WITH A SUDDEN VEHICLE STOP. BUS BEHIND ME ALMOST RUN INTO ME! THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO RE-START. AFTER A WHILE AIRPORT POLICE CAME AND HELP ME MOVE THE CAR OUT OF BUSY INTERSECTING/MERGING LANES RAMP. ON THIS AUTOMATIC VEHICLE, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL, WHEN ENGINE DOES NOT START. (I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY FREEWAY) BMW 335I HAD ISSUES WITH FUEL PUMP A FEW YEARS BACK AND IT COULD BE BACK AGAIN. THIS IS A SAFETY RISK TO DRIVERS OUT THERE. *TR
