Consumer Description

I HAVE OWNED THIS 2007 335I FOR 2 1/2 YEARS. I AM A 59 YEAR OLD FEMALE THAT DRIVES VERY CONSERVATIVELY. IN THE 2 1/2 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE, THE FUEL PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. FOUR MONTHS AGO THE INJECTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED AND THIS PAST FRIDAY THE ELECTRONIC WATER PUMP AND ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOT TYPICAL OF ANY BMW I HAVE OWNED IN THE PAST 12-15 YEARS. I CONTACTED OUR LOCAL BMW DEALERSHIP AND THEY KNEW OF NO PROBLEMS WITH THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. I CONTACTED BMW TODAY REGARDING THIS MODEL AND THEY TOOK THE INFORMATION FOR REVIEW WHICH TO ME MEANS FILE 13. BMW KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE WATER PUMPS AND THE THERMOSTATS ON THIS PARTICULAR MODEL AND THEY CHOOSE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. THEY ALSO KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE INJECTORS AND THEY CHOOSE TO DO NOTHING. I WAS TOLD THAT THE NHTSA MAKES THE DETERMINATION ON ALL RECALLS NOT THE INDIVIDUAL CAR MAKERS. *TR
