Consumer Description

ONE DAY I WAS LEAVING TARGET TO TAKE MY SON TO HIS DR. APPT. AND MY CAR WOULD NOT REVERSE. REVERSE ACTED AS A NEUTRAL. IT WAS ONLY ME AND MY SON I HAD TO ASK SOMEONE TO PUSH ME BACKWARDS. EMBARRASSING!!!!! AFTER THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE PROBLEM AGAIN UNTIL A FEW WEEKS LATER AND NOW IT IS NON STOP. ITS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. WHAT IF SOMEONE WAS TO TRY AND ROB ME WHEN I LEAVE WORK AND I NEEDED TO BACK UP QUICKLY. I WAS TOLD THERE IS A CRACK IN THE REAR DRUM AND THAT IT IS 2,500-3,500 TO FIX. I AM A SINGLE MOM I CANNOT AFFORD THAT. THIS SHOULDN'T HAPPEN THERE IS ONLY 112,000 MILES ON THIS CAR AND BMW REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR
