Consumer Description
BMW 2001 330I SEDAN (4 DOORS). DOOR LOCKS ARE UNRESPONSIVE DURING HOT DAYS. I LIVE IN ORLANDO FLORIDA AND THIS MEANS ALMOST ALL THE YEAR IS HOT. THIS IS A CRITICAL PROBLEM BECAUSE FOR SAFETY REASONS YOU WILL GET LOCKED IN YOUR CAR. I AM IMAGINE IF YOU HAVE A CAR ACCIDENT AND YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO OPEN THE DOORS TO LEAVE THE CAR? ONLINE (HTTP://WWW.BMWGM5.COM/) YOU CAN FINE HOW BMW CUSTOMERS ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE GUY ON THAT WEBSITE HAS A FIX FOR THAT ISSUE. I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM MORE THAN 50 TIMES IN 2 YEARS. BMW SHOULD DO A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR
