2020 Bmw X3 Complaints

I am submitting this complaint regarding ongoing and potentially dangerous mechanical failures involving my vehicle that have repeatedly occurred despite numerous repair attempts by the dealership. Over the past year, I have taken my vehicle to the dealership more than 10 times for serious recurring issues. The problems have included: Drivetrain malfunction warnings Engine warning lights Oil leaks Smoke coming from the vehicle The vehicle unexpectedly shifting into neutral while driving Sudden loss of drivability requiring the vehicle to be towed The dealership has repeatedly stated that the issues were repaired, and at one point even provided a one-year warranty on the repair work. Despite this, the same problems have continued to occur. Most recently, the drivetrain malfunction warning and engine light returned again, smoke came from the vehicle, and the car shifted into neutral on its own, becoming completely undriveable and requiring towing. I have spent more than $10,000 on repair...

The contact owns a 2020 BMW X3. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal was released, the auto start feature failed to function as intended. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed engine starter. The contact was informed that the engine starter needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced a recall, NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V636000 (Electrical System) however the contact's VIN was not associated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline and report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.

While stopped at a red light, my front sunroof panel exploded/shattered. My brother and I heard a loud bang. No object hit the sunroof. It was visible that the glass was bubbled outward. And, the 4 corners had cracking. Lucky the roof liner was closed and no glass hit us.

The heated seat element had a runway incident that caused the seat to smoke and burn a hole through multiple layers and ultimately damaging the airbag sensor mat disabling the passenger airbag system

It has come to my attention that liquid from the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system may leak onto the water pump electrical connector. This condition can lead to an electrical short circuit and, in rare cases, may increase the risk of a vehicle fire. This issue presents a serious safety concern for vehicle owners and others on the road. A failure of this nature, especially one that carries a fire risk, warrants immediate review and corrective action. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this matter and determine whether a safety recall is necessary to address this defect. The dealership noticed the leak beginning at the weep hole of the waterpump. No incident occurred this is for preventive measures and review for recall and reimbursement
