NHTSA Complaint #10520676 — 2004 BMW 530I

IDRIVE IS TOTALLY BLACK, INCLUDING ALL DASHBOARD FUNCTIONS, NO WIPERS OR POWER TO WINDOWS, ONLY MY ENGINE RUNS. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT WATER GOT INTO THE SUNROOF AND LEAKED TO THE TRUCK NEAR TIRE AND CAUSE TWO GASKETS TO BURN OUT. I AM TOLD THAT THE COST TO REPAIR IS $1650 OR $2950 DEPENDING ON WHICH OPTION I CHOOSE. I AM ALSO TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM MAY RETURN. THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER ISSUED BUT THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIR COST, EVEN THOUGH THROUGH NO FAULT OF OUR OWN THE PROBLEM EXISTS. *TR
